You may want to look at the Stateless Linux tutorial I wrote, which has
some information on obtaining an install of Fedora as a subtree within
your file hierarchy, and then creating a live CD of it.

See:
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/stateless/

and in particular:
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/stateless/sn-live-cd.html

Much of this document is aimed at a sysadmin wanting to manage a large
number of client machines, so some of it may be overkill for your needs,
but the Live CD creation script should be usable, and we'd love to get
feedback (patches?) on it.
