To ask a question that I think *hasn't* been asked:

Let's say I want to store big files in the ISO and symlink them to the user's $HOME. What's the appropriate way to, as part of the bootup process, mount the DVD? I noticed that, upon booting the live system, "mount /dev/cdrom" simply told me that it /dev/cdrom wasn't in the fstab. The /dev/cdrom symlink was set properly, so I could just add /dev/cdrom to the fstab myself or issue a mount command from an init script. But is that really the right way to automatically mount the disc from which the live system is booting?

I think the answer you are looking for is /mnt/live.

It will be mounted, and refers to the cdrom iso9660, or the fs that hosts the LiveOS on a LiveUSB.

Hmm - my live DVD I built doesn't have the CD system mounted at /mnt/live. Let me download an official Fedora 8 live disc and check that....
