In announce message of David, there is a line: SHA1SUM: 8771d21af1974492424438cbe42f1bae0161ea96 FC-6-i386-livecd-1.iso Have you checked SHA1SUM downloaded iso before writing cd ? Just run "sha1sum FC-6-i386-livecd-1.iso" and compare the output string with one above.

The live cd tools easily support if people wants to do this... Just build your own live cd and add --repo=livna,http://address.of.livna.repo/find_it_yourself --package=kmod-ndiswrapper See [1] for options. You can also use the --base-on option, then something along the lines of # livecd-creator --base-on=FC-6-i386-livecd-1.iso --fs-label=This-Is-Not-An-Offical-Fedora-6-LiveCD --repo=livna,http://address.of.livna.repo/find_it_yourself --package=kmod-ndiswrapper should do the trick. Rahul already explained why we cannot include this software on the live CD; it's really no different from why we can't include it in Fedora. And that's also one reason you probably can't call such a live cd "Fedora". But, sure, you can include all the Forbidden Items on a live cd if you want; how well it works is for your self and possibly others to find out.
