patch, manifest changes
by Bill Nottingham
I've been playing to see how much more we can fit on the live
CD for test 2.
First, I eliminated docs from the livecd with a patch to
livecd-creator (attached).
Then, I started adding and removing things. Based on Jeremy's
test1 configs at http://people.redhat.com/katzj/f7live/, I
made the following changes:
Added
-----
attr
bind-utils
gnome-screensaver
pcmciautils
termcap
crontabs
ppp
rp-pppoe
wvdial
logrotate
mdadm
smolt
nfs-utils
readahead
rhgb
gok
gnome-backgrounds
gnome-audio
nautilus-sendto
nautilus-sendto-bluetooth
monkey-bubble
gnome-blog
Removed
-------
emacs
xchat-gnome
This yields a 678MB Live CD, so we've still got a decent
amount of room for changes.
(SRPM for fedora-livecd attached)

[PATCH] fix x86_64, SELinux relabeling
by Bill Nottingham
This patch has two parts:
1) call fixfiles with a path
If we don't do that, fixfiles will parse /proc/mounts to see
what filesystems to try to relabel. In a chroot, that gets a
little fishy.
2) redo the find-library-dependencies bit in mayflower
The rework removes the hardcoded /lib and /lib/ld-linux.so.2,
which allows it to DTRT on x86_64.
Tested, x86_64 livecd boots.

Bug? : Failed SElinux fixfiles causes generated liveCD unable to run in readwrite
by Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail
I'm getting this error when creating a liveCD using livecd-tools
========
/sbin/setfiles: labeling files under /
*********************matchpathcon_filespec_eval: hash table stats:
17497 elements, 12838/65536 buckets used, longest chain length 5
/sbin/setfiles: labeling files under /tmp
matchpathcon_filespec_eval: hash table stats: 2 elements, 2/65536
buckets used, longest chain length 1
/sbin/setfiles: labeling files under /home
matchpathcon_filespec_eval: hash table stats: 1 elements, 1/65536
buckets used, longest chain length 1
/sbin/setfiles: labeling files under /mnt/storage
/sbin/setfiles: error while labeling files under /mnt/storage
========
and this error causes the generated livecd couldnt run as readwrite
... at first I thought it was caused by something else, but after
commenting out this line in livecd-creator , the problem gone ..
# os.system("/usr/sbin/chroot %s/install_root /sbin/fixfiles
restore"%(self.build_dir))
(yup i know i disabled it altogether) .. but I'm wondering what causes
SElinux to fail in the first place .. i didnt enable SElinux in the
box that generated the liveCD - is that what causes the error? or is
it something else ?... and why does the liveCD fails to run as
readwrite if the SElinux labeling failed ??..

[PATCH] silence udev
by Bill Nottingham
udev complains about 'device' going away. This seems to silence it.
Of course, with the move to libata, we could remove this line entirely.

Given that many users of livecd's will be inexperienced like myself, a
useful feature to add sometime would be a "replicate this CD" option under
one of the top-level menus, (if the CD is running in RAM mode). It could
also be used to replicate arbitrary CDs. Although this could also encourage
outdated CDs to spread. It's beyond me to write something like this at the
moment.

general livecd questions
by Luke -
I have some more questions:
- Can I create a x86 livecd on a 64-bit fedora system?
- Can I create a x86 livecd on a 64-bit machine running 32-bit fedora (what
I currently have)?
- Is there a way the livecd user can replicate the livecd without installing
it to disk? The ability to self-replicate would add another way to spread
these. (I'm not familiar with the technical issues, but if limited memory
was a problem perhaps the source and destination livecd's could be swapped
in and out repeatedly? Or, would temporarily storing the image on a flash
drive help? Perhaps there could be a choice at boot time to replicate the
CD?)
- Probably my most ignorant question: is it a security risk that the user
and root passwords are empty, ie. can someone take control of the machine if
you're connected to the net?
- What (if any) responsibility do I have to make source code available for
things on a livecd I create? If the CD only has fedora-provided software?
If the CD has non-fedora GPL software?
thanks again,
Luke
