Ok just to repost - here's the current delta to livecd-creator that I can't
live without.
The first part is answering "Why is my network pegged?" (though does anyone
know if there's a nice way to use something like Wireshark to get this
info?)
The second is defaulting to a persistent cache for downloads. This is not
protected against concurrent execution - should we go ahead and add a
--nocache option for those people who have a local fedora mirror?
Finally one random tip unrelated to this mail: use "ionice -c3
livecd-creator [OPTIONS]" if you're actually trying to use your laptop at
the same time yum is making your CD. I wonder if it would make sense to
just do this by default in yum?
