Hello,
I downloaded Fedora 19 Live CD and copied it to a USB flash drive via dd.
When I try to boot from it on a Lenovo Thinkpad T430s, I do get a screen
that says that Fedora Live CD is going to load, but then it fails. The
first error message I see is:
kernel: SQUASHFS error: unable to read id index table
Then, some lines later, I get several lines that say:
dracut-mount[361]: mount: unknown filesystem type 'DM_snapshot_cow'
and then:
dracut-mount[361]: Warning: Can't mount root file system
And then I seem to be in a "dracut emergency shell"
Any ideas? Thanks!
Best,
Oliver
