[Nix-dev] building live DVD?

Hi!

I would like to build a live DVD of nixos.

I followed the instructions in
http://nixos.org/releases/nixos/unstable/manual/. With some minor
modifications (see the attached svn diff), these instructions worked to
produce a rescueCD.

Now I would like to build a live DVD. Simply running

> nix-build nixos/installer/cd-dvd/live-dvd-X.nix -A rescueCD

(and all variations thereof that I could think of) failed. I am happy to
post details of these failures, but as I do not even know what I am
supposed to be doing I want to ask first:

How to build a live DVD (that includes X)?



Thanks,
Felix
