noroot doesn't seem to work. I can still sudo su - from the console... any ideas?

I am also trying to code 2 hooks.

1. I need to modify the timezone to Europe/Malta since the live cd time is always 2 hours behind... (at least I think that is the problem)

you don't need a hook for this.  --bootappend-live "timezone=Europe/Malta" (see live-config(7) for valid append options

2. I need to prevent the live user to become root since the live cd will be used by students

you don't need a hook for this either.  add 'noroot' to your append options, so both of these together:

--bootappend-live "timezone=Europe/Malta noroot"
