Hi,

I am creating a readiness tool for a product that we support. I have installed Centos minimal and developed some perl scripts that do the required job. Now i want to create a live cd out of this install.

The idea is that the customers boot from this live CD and it logs them in automatically using an account i have created and then runs a perl script instead of the normal shell. This perl script allows them to run some readiness tests and once done they simply select an option to EXIT that will shutdown the machine. I have done all this on my installed Centos (Virtual Box).

How can i create a live cd with my installed image ?

Hi,

Have a look at the following sites on how you can create a LiveCD with your software/settings/scripts and customize it. I'm convinced they're a good starting point:
https://projects.centos.org/trac/livecd/
http://www.livecd.ethz.ch/build.html

Kind regards,

Eric
