Hi all,

| LiveCD is a Gentoo thing, which they have been very adamament and vocal
| about us not using, at least from PPC land.  There will be no PPC live CD
| for this time, at least until I have time to write a new one and get it
| tested.

Did you take a look at the 'genbootcd' script in the open.datacore.ch
repository? If not, I would advice to do so... eventually it could help
us for now.

It's a prototype, but its able to build bootable CDs and that while
adding/upgrading packets according to configured needs in a chrooted
environment for the CD. The CD image then gets generated from that
extended & upgraded temporary install.

Features:
- - Automatic addition of arbitrary ebuilds binary files by emerging them
in a chroot environment
- - Automatic update (emerge -U world) of those packets contained in the
pre-image of the CD to the current actual versions
- - Automatic addition of ssh keys to that CD
- - Automatic installation of configured different kernels (the kernel
does not yet get automatically compiled, you have to do that by hand)
- - A Ebuild exists for it and can be found on open.datacore.ch under
"DataCore's Ebuilds" in the menu.

Eventually this script could help us to build a LiveCD for now?

Comments?

Greetings!
