Re: Changing rootfs.gz on livecd

Hi,

But what did you do and how ? We have a function to "change" the rootfs on live system but in case of live cd you must burn a new iso. Both, Tazlito and Tazusb can write the current running system to a rootfs.gz, in live usb it will be direcly copied on the stick and so used on next boot, with tazlito/livecd you got an iso. From tazlito usage:

writeiso        Use running system to generate a bootable ISO (with /home).
