I think if user's home directory is created before start of livecd session, all is needed is to just copy it to hard drive, if user chooses to install the system. Step 1 creates user's home on livecd (squashfs). Step 4 copies it to hard drive, including changes made in step 3. There might be few global settings that need to be copied as well ie. NetworkManager. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
