This is a very cool idea, but it does not work for me. It gets to ntpd and hangs. There is something about a download and waiting 10 minutes. Is this a systemd based system? If so, can you build a minimal System V system? A lot of the packages I see (e.g. crond, atd, dovecot, etc) are not needed if the iso is to be used as a rescue system. About the only things I would want are ssh, wget, and a text browser like links. It would also be better to have a dhcpcd available, but not started automatically at boot. Perhaps there should be a few command line utilities also like pciutils, usbutils, net-tools, gdisk, parted, etc.
- it is systemV - NTPD is trying to load the the file "leap-seconds.list", my guess is your DHCP serveur is not providing default route or DNS. - pciutil, gdisk, wget, sshd are included in liveCD, "linksi" applcation is available (via yum) net-tools is not (yet?) available, but inetutils is within livecd. usbutils not available, but will be included in liveCD. Thanks Bruce, I liked you comment. Matter of fact LiveCD was designed as a demo+install tool (demo: do we have a minimal workable LFS system set of commands, install: do we have tools to quickly install/duplicated on system disk).But for Rescue process, components as atd, dovecot, ntpd are indeed huge overkill.
Give me few days to build and validate a "LFS rescue liveCD".
