<tip>
From Yocto release 1.1 onwards, -live and -directdisk images have been replaced by a "live"
option in IMAGE_FSTYPES that will work with any image to produce an image file that can be
copied directly to a CD or USB device and run as is. To build a live image, simply add
"live" to IMAGE_FSTYPES within local.conf or whereever appropriate and then build the desired
image as normal.
