I want to install a openSUSE 11.4 system on a USB stick, configure it to my needs, install some extra software and then make it read-only and use it as a live system.
How do I do it?
I don’t expect a detailed instruction, just some hints what to look for or where I should expect trouble would be great!
The best advice I can give: Welcome – SUSE Studio
Create your own live image, use “dd” to write it to a USB device, and that’s it. It takes a couple of hours and attempts to get the hang of it, but it works great. I made one with Tumbleweed addition, still needs some tweaking and tuning, but it does what I wanted it for: have a bootable USB Live environment with everything on it that I need.
