Actually I think the request was more complex than it seemed on the surface :-) |

Chris indicated that Catalyst had to be heavily modified in order to allow it |
| 11 |
to build the Installer LiveCD which means that the spec files that were used |
| 12 |
were probably only useful with the modified version. |

My thought is that the Installer spec files are probably useless without the |
| 15 |
modified codebase and if they were released then this would generate a flood of |
| 16 |
distracting questions on the Installer list asking for help on how to get them |
| 17 |
to work. |

Anyway, I am also working on a LiveCD that has capabilities that are similar to |
| 20 |
the Installer but I have decided that the best way to do this is to take a |
| 21 |
slower approach, dig into the Catalyst source code and try to fully understand |
| 22 |
all of the pieced needed to achieve this. |

If you are interested in using this approach too we could move this discussion |
| 25 |
over to the catalyst list and continue it there :-) |
