So, we talked about replacing the Cobbler Live CD (really not limited to
just CD's) with Cobbler Build ISO. It turns out, it's right to keep
both, as some people /are/ using the live image to simulate PXE in
environments that don't have PXE.
If you are new to this, you can read about it here:

And here's BuildIso:
https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/wiki/BuildIso
I am updating the livecd-builder scripts in question so they will work
with F9 instead of F8 so it should have better hardware support. The
changes are minor, namely a new URL for packages to base the live image
off of, and livecd-tools is now the package name, not livecd-creator.
You may ask why we don't host a live CD that people can just download,
the answer is because we need to burn the address of the cobbler server
into the image. It will still be possible to do that for one that
points at any machine it can find named "cobbler", so I am going to look
into it with fedora infrastructure what it will take to offer that via a
torrent.
Then you can just set up a cobbler CNAME and be good to go, without
having to build the ISO.
