He can't. The RPMs on the live CD have already been extracted, and don't exist as an RPM on the liveCD. If you do an "install" from the live CD, all it does is copy of the disk image to your hard drive. The best he can do is get a list of the RPMs which *were installed* on the live CD and extract them from another source (like the install DVD or possibly from a downloaded RPM (see yumdownloader)). > Craig -- Kevin J.
