Take a look here: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1970 Generally, qubes-installer-qubes-os repository contains two somehow independent parts: 1. Standalone installer: - anaconda - installation application itself - pungi+lorax - tools to build bootable image hosting anaconda (*) - conf/qubes-kickstart.cfg - kickstart file describing that bootable image 2. Live image creator: - livecd-tools - tools to build live image(*) - live - scripts related to live image (qubes-live package) - conf/liveusb.ks - kickstart file describing Live image Those two parts can be enabled independently, using ISO_INSTALLER (default to '1') and ISO_LIVEUSB (default to '0') options in builder.conf. Ideally, we'd like to have a single image, which serve both as live image and installer image, but it's a long way to this goal, with many challenges on it. (*) Ideally we'd use upstream tools (pungi, lorax, pykickstart, livecd-tools) directly, but all those are missing signature verification of packages downloaded from the internet, sometimes over plain http... Patches applied there are all sent upstream, but in all the cases were either ignored or softly rejected ("It is expected that the distribution's using it will have strong controls on the contents taht feed into the compose"). - -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
