The current Fedora-7-Live-i386 CD comes with no firmwares in /lib/firmware for some kernel wifi drivers, e.g. rt73usb and bcm43xx. It would be nice to add these firmwares or needed modules in the existing Fedora-7-Live-i386 iso image.
How to modify the existing Fedora-7-Live-i386 iso image to build such a custom live cd that can run on any Linux-compatible pc without any installation? Thank you in advance.
If you look at the README in the livecd-tools package, you'll see a description of the baseon option (-b) to add things to an existing live image. Or alternately, you can just modify the configs used for the Fedora 7 image and rebuild the entire image
But note that if you are wanting to include things which are not included in Fedora (such as the bcm firmware) and then distribute the result, you'll also need to remove the Fedora trademarks from the image
