I "Finally" have a customer interested in Fedora. I talked him into letting me spin a Live USB flash drive for him to play with before we jump ahead. Question: Is there a way to use the extra space on the drive to install a few more programs for him to experiment with?
If you are really makking the spin yourself, you should be able to put anything you want on it. I infer that you are actually copying a .iso file to a USB stick. I have on occasion installed a Fedora system onto an SD card sitting in a USB SD card reader/writer. Do the install. Update. Add stuff you want. Hand it to customer. You might want to make /bin /usr/bin and some other directories and their files unwriteable. Another possibility. IIRC a .iso file will boot from a partition. Give the flash device two partitions. Make the first partition a copy of the .iso file. In the other partition, put a bunch of .rpm's and a script that the customer can click on. -- Michael hennebry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "SCSI is NOT magic.
