Duh, I meant to put that in the yum presto section. I just screwed it up. Sorry about that.

Regarding Klaus, he’s always the guy I thought of when I thought of LiveCDs.

And the thing I like about revisor is that it lets you pick the packages you want and just makes things _really_ easy.

You should really credit MEPIS, which was the first distro to have an *installable* live CD. Very different from a regular one. (Mandriva was second, AFAIK).

Revisor looks neat, but why not re-use an existing system like mklivecd ? (Or is that what it does under the hood?)

Hi,
I’m the “Ahmed” you refer too. Jonathan and I worked on yum-presto. You mixed us with the revisor project, which is not related to us at all!
Please update the article.
Best Regards

Klaus Knopper is the name. And why did you even bother to mention him? What you basically said is that youre glad that Fedora is now more like Ubuntu…
