Hi all,

Here (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SebastianDziallas/Education) is a 
new version of the Education Spin. I have extended the table with some 
apps (thanks for the recommendations!) and created three categories 
(included, available via script, available via yum).

Currently, I have a problem with the integration of the installation 
script. I have added this to the kickstart file (post part):

# create script for extras installation
echo '#!/bin/bash'$'\n'"su -c 'yum install atomix blender enigma 
gcompris inkscape jokosher kalgebra kdeedu marble scribus solfege 
stardict stellarium taskjuggler wxmaxima'" > /home/fedora/Desktop/extras.sh
chmod +x /home/fedora/Desktop/extras.sh

But after having created this iso, I don't see such an icon on the 
desktop. Does anybody have an idea concerning this? And, by the way, 
will the script still be available, when the user does an installation 
to hard disk?

Sebastian
