F17 imgcreate SELinux failures
by Daniel Drake
Hi,
We use python-imgcreate to build OLPC images:
http://dev.laptop.org/git/projects/olpc-os-builder/tree/modules/base/buil...
and we distribute this to our customers to build their own, customised
images too.
Under F17, we aren't able to build images in this way when selinux is
enforcing on the host system.
When packages get installed and want to run ldconfig or groupadd,
selinux blocks them.
audit.log says e.g.:
type=SELINUX_ERR msg=audit(1338332428.453:68272):
security_compute_sid: invalid context
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:ldconfig_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 for

Is this a known issue?

Fedora-17-i686-Live-LXDE.iso boot error
by ne1uno＠hotmail.com
After I get past the status bar on the bottom of the screen, the boot process stops and reports the following:
-----
dracut Warning: No boot device "live:/dev/disk/by-label/Fedora-17-i686-Live-LXDE.iso" found
Dropping to debug shell
sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
dracut:/#
-----
And sure enough, there is no /dev/disk/by-label but /dev/disk/by-id.
I had the same problem with Fedora 16 LXDE also. The regular Desktop LiveCD (Gnome version) works fine.
Thank you.

Misconfigured devicemapper setup within the livecd?
by Joshua C.
I'm getting a strange error with the latest livecds. They are custom
made but the changes I made to the kickstart files concern my own
scripts and extra packages I want to have in the livecd. This started
to occur in the lastest 3-4 weeks. I cannot say when exactly it
started to apper. I filed a kernel-bug here
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=823205 but maybe this is a
devicemapper problem. I know that there were some changes to the
livecd-tools and lorax packges so maybe something there introduced
this bug. Can someone take a look at it? More information can be found
in my bug report.

Is livecd-creator broken?
by Valent Turkovic
I tried last version of livecd-creator currently in Fedora 16, and
then updated to latest version from testing-updates repo, but still I
get ISO image that is broken...
Did anybody get working iso image from Fedora 16 or Fedora 17
kickstart files using livecd-creator ?
if you did please share how you managed to get a working iso image.
Cheers,
Valent.

I used sync every time it doesn't help, can anybody please try and see
does it work for you or not. If it doesn't work it is a mayor bug that
I'll report right away.

/dev/live, /mnt/live, LiveOS/home.img unavailable in Fedora-17
by Frederick Grose
Please note that the current Fedora-17-Beta-TC2-Live images lack
some traditional Live CD/USB features.
See this bug report.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=740280
/dev/live was a link to the installation partition on the Live USB, such as
/dev/sdc1,
or /dev/sr0 on a Live CD/DVD.
How would a script determine this partition without human input?
/mnt/live was a convenient mounting of the installation partition
filesystem.
It allowed easy access to pre-existing content on the Live USB device or to
the /LiveOS and /syslinux directories.
The --home-size-mb NNN option of livecd-iso-to-disk produced a
/LiveOS/home.img
filesystem for the liveuser's home directory.
This feature made possible the --encrypted-home option, which would secure
the privacy of a user directory on a Live USB system.
The home.img filesystem was also read/write/delete without consuming the
LiveOS overlay. This is important for non-short-term Live USB deployments,
such as Sugar on a Stick, where overlay exhaustion can be a significant
problem.
Is there a workaround for these (missing) features?

copy repo data to USB for F17 (#806166)
Fedora 17 runs from the media so repo= cannot be used to mount the same
device for access to the repo so we now copy the repodata from the iso
over to the / of the USB. This requires anaconda-17.23-1 or later.
For releases before F17 the iso is still copied and repo= is setup to
point to it.
This reverts the use of 2 partitions that was used to work around this.

is liveusb-creator working for you?
by Valent Turkovic
Hi,
I created Fedora 16 respin (with latest packages from updates repo)
and custom remix iso images but when I transfer iso image to usb with
liveusb-creator or via dd command I just get black screen on boot, not
even grub menu comes up :(
Are others seeing this also or is everything working out for you?
I tried both 32 and 64 bit versions, and it is the same on both.
Cheers,
Valent.
