[opensuse-project] Calling for help for medical project. How do I create a live cd as I want it?
Hello,
Next week I'm planing to have the first medical project meeting. I'll inform you about.
Following what mentioned: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-medical/2011-11/msg00007.html
I was searching a way how to create a live cd fully functional.
PROBLEM: We need a live cd that will have an SQL program installed (with user-pass) and this database will be imported to the EMR program. Imagine to setup a live cd with Joomla or Drupal fully functional.
SUSE studio can add the medical repository and the EMR programs but without the SQL programs. Even if the SQL is set, then the EMR program must be installed-setup. If someone know how to do that, let us know.
I was told that I can do that with KIWI. I was reading documentation to do that but I understood that KIWI adds repository and the program with the use of config.xml file. Someone told me that there might be a script but it's out of his zone.
Since I'm veterinarian and I don't know about scripting etc (and tell you the truth I don't want to learn since there are a lot about animal pathology so far), I don't know how to proceed. Can someone tell me or even better help me?
As far as I see it, I can say:
1. We pack as many programs as we can to our repository. 2. Create an appliance with the repository and maybe with some programs that don't require SQL. 3. Make our wiki the PORTAL that everyone can use with the LiveCD. I mean how to install the EMR program (how to setup SQL and then the program).
I'll be waiting for proposals, so I'll set the meeting for next week. Have a lot of fun, Stathis

If I undestand correctly, in Studio this is pretty easy - add the packages from the repositories you want (or upload them), then boot the built image in testdrive, set up the programs and the database like you would on a real system, and use the "modified files" feature to save the changes to your appliance. Then your users do not have to configure anything.

Hello,
Like with my precedent mail, I'm ccing to all Medical Linux distro teams because I believe that this discussion can be done in collaboration with all teams (even if the final result will be different for each team). See my precedent mail about a central mailing list.

I think that you will not be able to create a LiveCD with fully functional MySQL, PostGreSQL servers. If you succeed with an installation of these server, data will be lost at each restart.
Assuming that your wishes are: - distributing an easy system for app testing - install and preconfigure medical&related apps - make this fully installable (system and config) to any computer
I suggest to dig around LiveUSB with data persistence instead of digging deeper in LiveCD.
(with a simplification) There are two kinds of LiveUSB: - LiveUSB installator * same as LiveCD installator * install a complete system to your computer using an USBKey, no data persistence. * Usefull in our case but not what you are looking for. - LiveUSB installation * same as a computer installation * Linux is completely installed on an USBKey with all driver needed to process hardware config, * a specific partition is created for the data persistence. * This allows you to create a full OpenSuse/Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora
There is a similar project here:
I'm not a LiveUSB guru but I succeed on create a live usb drive with a 4Go key and ubuntu. Unfortunately, I didn't succeed to boot it from my MacBook, and I didn't go further (install personnal packages and config). It started on a Dell computer.
What do you think about this orientation ? ----- Eric Maeker, MD (Fr) http://www.freemedforms.com http://www.ericmaeker.fr
Hi,
I have no idea whether this mass-cc is helpfull. I just want to mention that debian-live can create images which as far as I know can also be used on USB sticks and by using the metapackages of Debian Med it should be quite simple to make sure all medical applications are installed into this image.
Good luck
Andreas.
