Let me just start with 'Wow' :-)
Thanks!
After a few false starts figuring out how things were put together
under
the hood between yum and pungi, I successfully got a respin of a fully
patched FC6+updates done in only a few hours start to finish. 'Very'
cool stuff.
Awesome. It's even easier in Fedora 7.
Biggest problem I had was figuring out the admittedly (in hindsight)
very few commands/edits needed to get the job done, as the docs in the
wiki and other web references I could have were very cryptic at best.
Some kind of a "getting started with pungi' doc with a simple, clear,
concise, complete set of steps to follow sure would have helped.
Is there such a document ? Any interest in me drafting what I did to
start cooking up such a newbie's guide ?
I would certainly not turn down such a document. Please do! But if you do,
basing it on Fedora 7 is best.
Lastly, is there any plan to have pungi be able to build live-cd
images
as well as the distro images ? I have a coworker who's fiddling around
with the live-cd creator stuff in FC7 and we both thought that unifying
the toolset might be worth thinking about.
There is a higher level tool called revisor that provides another frontend to
pungi libraries and livecd-creator. It's even graphical. Give revisor a try
on Fedora 7!
