Save to Live CD

[Ian Melnick <dazed@vonsteuben.cps.k12.il.us>]

Hello all,

I'd like to use a "live" cd and be able to save my stuff to it without
requiring a separate medium. What I'd like to happen is partition a
cd-rw so that the first part is from the iso that I'd download from
somewhere, and the second part would be a writable filesystem (udf?)
that I'd be able to mount as /home.

First of all, given the speed that these things write/read at, is this
idea realistic/possible?

Second, if it is, how would I go about doing it?

Thanks much!
