Hi,
First, I'd like to thank you for your nice effort of the febootstrap tool.
I understand there are 2 major versions of this tool
the first has the syntax of "febootstrap fedora-12 ./f12" while the second
has the syntax "febootstrap --names ....."
Is it correct?
Yes, febootstrap 2 & 3 are completely different tools.
I also understand the second one is used only to create a minimal
system.
is it correct too?
febootstrap 3 only creates supermin appliances:

But what about if I want to create a complete rootfs with GUI to use
it
with qemu kvm?
Would you kindly show me how to do this with febootstrap?
Don't use febootstrap for this. Use 'yum --installroot=...' instead.
