How to build PostgreSQL Live CD

Preparing a live CD, based on PGDG RPMS, is easy for Fedora users. We prepared a kickstart file, which will do all the work for you. Also, you can install the contents to a disk after boot. You will find an icon on Desktop for that.

You will need to install livecd-tools RPM.

There are about 700 packages to be downloaded, this build process may take some time, depending on your connection.

Note: All builds are done on RPM Master Build Server.

• Checkout PG84-Fedora-x86.ks from pgcore SVN ( under livecd directory) to RPM Build Server.

• Edit kickstart file, enable local repositories, and also disable public repositories. This will save big amount of time :)

• Run this command as root:

livecd-creator --config=PG84-Fedora-x86.ks
