With proper configuration, the kernel from LFS can now be used for Live CD's. So a separate build of the kernel is no longer required. This page is no longer maintained.
Compiles the Linux kernel with OverlayFS and SquashFS support. This script is not required if you configure your kernel to include OverlayFS and SquashFS yourself.
LFScript can find this software under the name kernel-live.
