FreeBSD LiveCD was born as a Brazilian +FreeBSD User Group (www.fugspbr.org) project. The objective was to +create a tool that would allow us a safe diagnostic method under +emergency enviroments and specially as a rescue disk where FreeBSD +partitions could only be accessed (mounted) externally. + +What is LiveCD? Its such a simple answer, it is nothing but a set +of patches applied to the FreeBSD Initialization files allowing the +system to run from a CDROM, setting the best way to either mount +under Memory File System (MFS) or Virtual Nodes (vnodes) those +filesystems that need Write and Read access. Slices that just need +Read access are still run from the CD. + +Can I use it to install FreeBSD? Yes, with recent revision 1.2, it +can install a FreeBSD system without any other disks. It also support +batch operation mode for automated installation processes. + +Is LiveCD any different from an ordinarily installed FreeBSD system? +It is a completely functional FreeBSD system just like any ordinarily +installed one. You will be able to both run any applications and +mount any filesystems as any FreeBSD system would allow you. + +WWW: http://livecd.sourceforge.net/ |
