Something I noted about the project. While I am
all for a virtual image
for testing purposes and getting things up and running while we're
creating this project, I think the ultimate goal should be something
like an ISO that's ready to go on a server. There are many of us in the
systems world who have not bought into the whole virtualisation
marketing gimmick when it comes to system deployment, and for the casual
home user who's less comfortable with using VMs for an actual production
system (which is, to be honest, a lot of people), it might be easier in
the long term to get everything the way we want it and then make an ISO
that's ready to drop onto whatever machine with all the components we need.
Ok. When you say "ISO that's ready to drop onto", do you have a
particular procedure in mind?
g-)
Something like taking a kickstart file and making an installable livecd
from it (something similar to the LiveCD berlios project). I don't KNOW
of one that works to create installable ISOs in CentOS, but I'm sure
there must be... somewhere... maybe....?
