Hi,
Thinking out loud, isn't this is going to be more of an interesting issue in 12.1? if it's going to be GNOME 3, it wont be ABLE to have any icons on the desktop
Maybe an application icon is the way to go forward..

in the past the LiveCDs had an installer icon on the desktop - I don't see this with the current GNOME LiveCD ;-(
How do you want to do this for 12.1?
Andreas I haven't seen the 12.1 version but I am wondering if there is some misunderstanding about this Live CD and the ability to install Gnome 3 when using the Live CD.
The Live CD I have come across with Gnome 3 does NOT have the option to install Gnome 3 when the Live CD is first booted and the menu appears - which is unlike all previous Live CDs where one had the option to Install the system from that first menu.
Live CD with Gnome 3 do not have this option, and one has to know that only by going into Yast can one see the Live Installer option. As explained in almost all blog posts about GNOME 3 Live image and in

This issue is due to kiwi not supporting creating customized boot entry ( https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=667950 ) and is not present in GNOME3 Promo DVD (which was "hand-made").
Please forgive me, Frederick, but all you said is nothing more than goobly-dook to anyone - including me - who wants to install gnome 3 on their system. *WHAT* "blog posts" about "GNOME 3 Live image"? *What* 'posts' in the wiki? I have never heard of any of these. Who are you catering to - the ordinary guy in the street or the geek who has nothing better to do other than to read "blogs" and "wiki" entries - which nobody knows about except for the "blog-followers" and "propeller-heads" who follow this sort of stuff? :-( But in the end what you are trying to say that this "kiwi" - whatever the heck this is! - will be fixed as the result of the bugzilla report so that in the next day or so this problem will disappear and the next Live CD with Gnome 3 will not have this handicap, right? :-) BC -- The Annual General Meeting of Psychics has been cancelled due to unforseen circumstances.
