For all intents and purposes, liveinst is part of anaconda.  It just
does a tiny bit of setup and gives something that's useful to run.  It
will probably continue to exist, mostly because it gives people
something nicer to tell people to run than saying "run anaconda with
this set of options".  But putting complexity there isn't better or
worse really
