I'm just curious, but what makes you think the CD *would* login |
| 12 |
automatically? ;] |

Here's the general philosophy with catalyst. For the "generic-livecd" |
| 15 |
target, we tend to *not* do most of the automatic stuff that we do for |
| 16 |
the releases. The reason is simple. We don't think that we should |
| 17 |
force anyone to have their CD act a certain way. We expect users to |
| 18 |
perform *any* necessary customizations to make their CD work the way |
| 19 |
that they want it to work. If you want auto-login on the CD, then you |
| 20 |
need to setup the configuration file for your display manager yourself |
| 21 |
and ship it in via an overlay (or have the file edited by your fsscript) |
| 22 |
to get the desired results. |
