-R8 specific kickstarts
+# R8 specific kickstarts
+
+This branch has Rocky Linux 8 specific kickstarts. These kickstarts vary
+between cloud images and live images provided in our repositories and
+mirrors.
+
+## Building Live Images
+
+To build live images, you will need to use `livecd-creator` or
+`livemedia-creator`. The former is simpler to use and generally works without
+many issues. The latter can be a bit more tricky to work with and typically
+runs the installer virtually. However, it can be used without a virtual machine
+like in a mock shell.
+
+### Using livemedia-creator
+
+To use livemedia-creator without using virt, you can use a mock shell. To
+setup a mock chroot for the purpose of building a live image, you would
+set it up like so:
+
+```
+# Install mock if you haven't already
+% dnf install epel-release -y
+% dnf install mock -y
+
+# Add a user to the mock group
+% usermod -a -G mock user
+
+# As the user, setup the mock environment
+% mock -r rocky-8-x86_64 --init
+% mock -r rocky-8-x86_64 --install lorax-lmc-novirt vim-minimal pykickstart git
+# You will need to be in permissive mode temporarily
+% setenforce 0
+# Enter the shell
+% mock -r rocky-8-x86_64 --shell --isolation=simple --enable-network
+
+# Clone the kickstarts and run an installation
+% git clone https://github.com/rocky-linux/kickstarts
+% cd kickstarts
+% livemedia-creator --ks Rocky-8-Workstation.ks \
+  --no-virt \
+  --resultdir /var/lmc \
+  --project="Rocky Linux" \
+  --make-iso \
+  --volid Rocky-Workstation-8 \
+  --iso-only \
+  --iso-name Rocky-Workstation-8-x86_64.iso \
+  --releasever=8 \
+  --nomacboot  # This option is important to set, mkfs.hfsplus is not available
+```
+
+With the example above, all of the results will appear in
+`/var/lib/mock/rocky-8-x86_64/root/var/lmc`.
