Re: Writable Centos LiveCD on Embeded Linux?

Hi Stephen,
I read about the overlay feature in Fedora9, but I don't know if when the changes to the FS are so big (like going from 5.1 to 5.2) the overlay will grow and grow
over time. And the overlay solution will require too much space.

Thanks
Oliver

Hi all,
I was wondering if it possible to have a Centos LiveCD installation boot
from
a Compact Flash in a embeded x86 (Wrap/Alix) platform *and* be able to
save the changes made to the File System back to the Flash memory.


You would need to really hack at it to get it to that. The ability to
do that did not get into Fedora until 9 so its part of the init
scripts or the livecd tools to make an overlay partition.
