I'm a Fedora remix maker and the following refers to Fedora 13 and the version of livecd-tools and livecd-creator currently shipping with it. I haven't yet advanced to making rpm packages for my minor modifications. I currently just do a few copy operations in the %post --nochroot section of my kickstart file.
The only thing I haven't figured out yet is how to replace the /isolinux/splash.jpg on the Live media. I thought just copying my desired jpg file to /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/syslinux-vesa-splash.jpg would do the trick as that appears to be the file referenced per this snooping:
# grep jpg /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/imgcreate/live.py "/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/syslinux-vesa-splash.jpg" if self.__copy_syslinux_background(isodir + "/isolinux/splash.jpg"): background = "menu background splash.jpg"
That doesn't seem to work. What file do I need to replace?
These files are copied before the %post scripts are executed.
In your %post --nochroot you have to hack $LIVE_ROOT/isolinux directly.

Well that doesn't answer the question. What jpg file is used as the source for /isolinux/splash.jpg? Is it indeed /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/syslinux-vesa-splash.jpg? If so, does that file come from the host filesystem or the build filesystem? I replaced it on the host filesystem before even starting the build.
The /var/tmp/iso-{random} directory (or whatever the proper name is) isn't created until very late in the build process. I thought %post stuff was completed prior to that but perhaps not.
Thanks for responding.
TYL,
