I forget the solution to the beta-nag. Either I modified the build script on the buildsys. Or I modified anaconda on the buildsys.

===Foreword===
Red Hat suggest to create a product.img (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-enterprise-linux/7/anaconda-customization-guide/2-working-with-iso-images#sect-product-img) and to put it in the folder images at the root of the CD, however, Centos did not use this way, but rather edited directly the anaconda image inside the live image.
Also, we might want to patch Anaconda at least to handle the degraded raid 1
Hence I feel we will have to do the same to hide all Centos branding.[[User:Unnilennium|Unnilennium]] ([[User talk:Unnilennium|talk]]) 17:20, 17 July 2016 (CEST)
=== how to steps (WIP)===
* first extract the content of Live image, and the image of Anaconda inside
cd /build/smeserver/stage/10.0.alpha1/x86_64/LiveOS/
mkdir squashfs
sudo mount -r -o loop squashfs.img squashfs
mkdir mysquash
cp -ar squashfs mysquash
sudo umount squashfs
rmdir squashfs
mkdir rootfs
sudo mount -r -o loop mysquashfs/LiveOS/rootfs.img rootfs
mkdir myrootfs
cp -ar rootfs myrootfs
umount rootfs
rmdir rootfs
*then we have to modify what we want like usual
WORK IN PROGRESS:
# /usr/share/anaconda/pixmaps/ content (logo, side bar, top bar, etc.)
# /usr/share/anaconda/pixmaps/rnotes/en/ content (Banners for the installation progress screen)
# /usr/share/anaconda/anaconda-gtk.css (gui stylesheet)
# /run/install/product/pyanaconda/installclasses/ (for changing the product name)
# addons, we do not need for now /usr/share/anaconda/addons/
# we might want to patch anaconda and copy files where necessary (later stage)
* finally rebuild images
cd myrootfs
find . | cpio -c -o | gzip -9cv > ../rootfs.img
cd ../..
mv rootfs.img mysquashfs/LiveOS/
cd mysquashfs
find . | cpio -c -o | gzip -9cv > ../squashfs.img
