This is a guide on how it works. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD/LiveCDHowTo Here is a guide on editing kickstarts: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart

Creating a live image from a kickstart

A Fedora installation (Either on disk or in a virtual machine) livecd-tools Basic knowledge of using the Linux command-line A recent version of the kickstarts (see Files, and then download a leaf as a zip) First, open up a terminal and become root. $ su Then, install livecd-tools. # yum install livecd-tools Now set SELinux to permissive. # setenforce 0 Change to the directory that you’ve downloaded this archive to, and then change to the “anonos” directory. # cd anonos Make a cache directory (/var/cache/live writes to RAM and swap, so the space will be used up quick.) # mkdir cache Copy and paste one of the below to start making your chosen liveCD. Make sure you have enough space for twice the liveCD’s size. (usually 2GBs) For Annonaceae: livecd-creator \ --config=annonaceae.ks \ --fslabel=Annonaceae V.0.0.6 --cache=cache For Cherimoya: livecd-creator \ --config=cherimoya.ks \ --fslabel=Cherimoya V.0.0.6 --cache=cache Once you are done, free up space by deleting ~/cache. # rm -r cache Z f3bdb360437e542abc7497fac9f961c5
