Check the desktop ks file and the base desktop ks file it depends on and
add/remove programs as you wish. It is always better to have a local
Fedora mirror of the needed packages if you are building a Live CD. Use
the --cache option for avoiding repeated downloads. If you already have
a Live CD image and would just to add more packages to the existing
image, use the -b option.
Thanx for the help.

Not sure what you are trying to do here but mkdir <path>/foo/bar/bing
works if you want to just create a series of directories.
yeah i know that but ,
I just want to automate the creation of filesystem structure under any
directory. thats just an experiment i want to do .
You can create a filesystem and mount it under any directory. But you first
have to create it. Are you asking if it would be possible to automatically
'create and mount by loopback' a filesystem under an empty directory?
