Sorry, Rahul, I still don't really understand. Surely if one runs a Live DVD then one is not running Fedora on the computer proper (ie on the hard disk) so how do you install one of the games if you like it? I would have thought a simple DVD with Fedora games on it would be easier to use. I can see that a Live Games DVD would be quite a nice thing to show a Windows user what you can do in Fedora. Is that really what it's for?
