You could make a website with links : Click here to install _blah_
You could use Konsole to pop up a teminal.
This is using konqueror as web browser, not sure if it would work on Mozilla.
Could host it here if you want.
As more and more install scripts are floating around, I'm wondering whether we could start a "1-Click-Warehouse" like Lindows.com, free of course. The advantage would be that you could surf there and install precompiled programs to your ~/dist with just one click.
Btw, does anyone know how it is technically done at lindows.com? I think they use a modified apt-get..
[UPDATE] It's done. http://klik.berlios.de/ [/UPDATE]

This is a kool idea. I assume it is/would be only for the Knoppix distro, or would it work with others like Libranet etc.?

My live-installer does this. As soon as I have more time. Next week I think, I'll collect all scripts and make a HUGE update for the live-installer.Originally Posted by probono
PS: I like the idea with the website!

Probono,
Cool idea. I hope the website idea materializes somehow.
Fabianix, do you know if Klaus will be adding your live installer to Knoppix?
Heh, nice idea! In my latest release (0.3-5) you can (finally) install .deb's on-the-fly from the liveCD, together with this and you'd be able to do some pretty nifty stuff
Anyway, interested in your live-installer Fabian, i'll bug you about it next time i spot you on irc
good idea, but doesn't seem to work. blah does, but as soon as I try to add any arguments it stops working.Originally Posted by eadz
That's really a killer feature! Do you use the overlay fileszstem for this? I finally found out a method to install .deb without an overlay filesystem. It's completely manually, however.Originally Posted by Alextreme
Yups, it uses translucency. I'm even starting to make scripts to 'install' a number of debian packages into a minimodule, and have them linked into the filesystem at boot (this is pretty fast for a large number of packages, as dpkg'ing takes time ).
This way, you'd either install (or in the future apt-get) new packages live from CD, or you could have certain metapackages/modules that would be addable with the iso-builder or multisession cd's. Finally those minimodules seem to be getting shape, took some time :P
However, now i'll need some form of website (a la packages.debain.org or your warehouse) to facilitate in live-downloading and installing. And dependancy handling. Oh well, ya have to keep yourself busy
apt-get works. So why don't use it ?Originally Posted by Alextreme
If it does not work for you, try the solution from my live-installer. I got apt working.
