Hi! I would like to build a live DVD of nixos.
I followed the instructions in http://nixos.org/releases/nixos/unstable/manual/. With some minor modifications (see the attached svn diff), these instructions worked to produce a rescueCD. Now I would like to build a live DVD. Simply running
nix-build nixos/installer/cd-dvd/live-dvd-X.nix -A rescueCD
(and all variations thereof that I could think of) failed. I am happy to post details of these failures, but as I do not even know what I am supposed to be doing I want to ask first: How to build a live DVD (that includes X)? Thanks, Felix
