What are the differences between Live images and regular installations ?
• Live images provide a subset of packages available in the regular DVD image. Both connect to the same repository that has all the packages. • SSH is disabled by default and Network Manager is enabled by default in the Live images. SSH is disabled because the default username in the Live images do not have any password. Installation to hard disk prompts for creating a new user name and password however. Network Manager is enabled by default since Live images target desktop users. The plan for Fedora 8 is to more deeply integrate Network Manager throughout the distribution and enable it by default in all instances. • Live image installations do not allow any package selection or upgrade capability since they copy entire the filesystem from media to hard disk or USB disks. After the installation is complete and booted into, packages can be added and removed as desired with yum. • Live images do not work on i586 architecture.
