[Fedora-livecd-list] /dev/live no longer being created since udev-153 update?

Thu Aug 26 12:38:54 UTC 2010

Hmm. I can't get it to work by specifying udev-151-9 in the kickstart
file. I don't know why.

However, I can confirm that you can boot up off your USB stick, log in
to a vt as root, and

    yum downgrade udev

and then reboot, and it'll mount home. (You might also need to

    rm -rf /home/*

if it's created some home directories by that point, but please do check
it hasn't mounted your persistent home first...)

This could also be done with a %post in the kickstart file.
