Then there is the negative ones

* building Live Media is more complex, with more to go wrong, and they break more * there has been less interest shown in Live Media by the openSUSE community, with less fixes forthcoming when we've had them, meaning it's hard to emphasise them as a primary part of the distributions in that case. Honestly, from my perspective, if I'm going to test out a server OS build, I'm going to have a specific use-case in mind. I want to build my VM with a specific subset of packages, and not all the extra "bloat" that comes along with a usual live image, like a GUI. So I'm not really sure where the idea of a live server OS image fits into

I could see SLED being useful with a live image, maybe, possibly...but not SLES. Hang on -- did this thread just move lists? What gives? well, looks like it and well it should. factory is for technical discussion and this list has become *nearly* off-topic. I would guess discussion of the manner to build live media would be technical but the reasons for having a live media past the technical hurdles would not.

Look, personally I am just a tad annoyed in recent times with broken threads and with people changing the contents of Subject Header which makes for following a thread very difficult. As far as this thread is concerned, Richard posted his msg in *THIS* list (factory) and he would be one of the first people to "set one straight" "under the penalty of excommunication" if a post is in "the wrong hole"; so, Christopher Myers should not have sent his reply to 'opensuse'; and when the misdirection was detected then the post should have been re-directed here, to 'factory' -- and I am returning this thread back to where it started.
