[...]Indeed, it is still work in progress, but I decided to release a new LiveCD anyway, because several new ADEOS patches and Fusion tarballs were released.
But, it somehow show what I intend to do, namely, make the configuration of RTNet as easy as possible by using a bootable CD and "graphical" user interfaces.
Actually, all sources are on the CDROM, as there is actually not much sourcecode involved. All scripts are found
in the /etc/ directory hierarchy.
I've also received a request from other people to write a short HOWTO, to explain how to create these ISO-images.
As hinted at before, this LiveCD seems ready to be turned into a real open source project, in the sense that "third parties" such as RTnet can access the sources more easily then now (i.e., from a CVS/SVN server instead of from the CD; with the kexec stuff; etc.) , and contribute their project's updates. In addition, the original project developers will have a much easier job in coding appropriate test suites. And "someone" will probably step up and add useful things such as the kexec and more fancy interfaces :-)
What do you think about that? What would be the necessary steps to make?
