[Fedora-livecd-list] Installing a custom rpm on a livecd

Hi all,

I am working on generating a live CD for a systemtap tutorial. The current 
livecd has all that is needed to run systemtap on the livecd. We would like to 
include the systemtap tutorial materials on the CD, e.g. examples and the 
slides. I was thinking of having an rpm and just installing that as a part of 
the %post in kickstart file. Have the following line in the %post of the .ks 
file used by the livecd-creator:

rpm -i 
http://people.redhat.com/wcohen/stap_tutorial/stap_tutorial-0.5.13-1.noarch.rpm

I have checked and the rpm is available and I can install it from a commandline 
on other linux machine. Is there a simple way install a local RPM onto a liveCD? 
Or is creating a yum repository the only way to do this?

-Will
