I'm pretty sure the better thing to do would be to have the bi-arch shell script as a tool added just like edit-livecd has been added. I do not think changing the whole model is going to solve anything, especially since the current model is just fine and does what it should. Building a bi-arch rescue disc or USB image is an addon-feature not a core-function. -- livecd mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd
