===== Customize a live CD/usb: =====

  * Start with [[http://www.ubuntu-mini-remix.org/|Ubuntu Mini Remix]]for the base 
  * Use [[https://github.com/kamilion/customizer|Customizer]] to add stuff
  * use usb-creator-gtk if making a live USB

==== Customizer: ====


  * the directory for the Live User will not exist, but you can create it and anything that you put there will be retained on the live boot
  * Execute Hook refers to a script to customize your CD if you are doing the same customization over and over again
  * The directory for the live CD is in /home/FileSystem in the host
  * To have something automatically run in foreground after boot add it to /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh
  * the iso is in the /home directory of the host
  * clean unmounts the iso

==== Notes: ====


  * sudo has no password
  * /dev/ttyUSB0 and friends are not openable by default. You can sudo chmod 777 them in your script tho.
  * if you don't need the network and the boot is getting stuck waiting for it, comment out the sleeps in /etc/init/failsafe
