[TriLUG] JOB? - create customized distro

[Christopher L Merrill]

More likely, the salesperson doesn't understand my requirement...or
rPath's capabilities.  Wouldn't be the first time.

You're right - I looked into their build options and there IS a bootable
option (liveCD/demoCD).

After giving me the sales pitch about how they can help us make our software
easier for our customers to install and keep updated, I think she was no
longer interested when I explained that this piece of our software is already
trivial to install and may only have a lifespan of a few hours or days at a
customer site -- and therefore doesn't need the update services which she is
no doubt getting paid to sell.
