Introduction

The LiveCD project is dedicated to providing you with tools to create your own LiveCD from a currently installed Linux distribution. It can be used to create your own distribution, specialised CD, or to put together a demo disk to show off the power of our favourite OS.

F e a t u r e s

The project features automatic hardware detection and setup, and utilises compression technology to build a LiveCD from a partition much larger than would typically fit on a CD. (Up to 2GB for a normal 650MB CD.) When booting from this LiveCD, the data is transparently decompressed as needed. LiveCD now supports udev.

Currently, Mandrakelinux and PCLinuxOS are supported as a host for creation of the LiveCD, i.e. we are only able to create LiveCD's from a MDK or PCLinuxOS install. The LiveCD scripts are still beta, and bugs are being elimated. Your help and feedback are appreciated!

J o i n

The LiveCD project is always looking for new developers and users. So, what are you waiting for? Join one of our mailing lists.
Or meet the developers on IRC, channel #livecd and/or #pclinuxos, on EFnet.
