Hi James
I tried once more and rebooted after disabling sandbox and cups.
Still failed after the resize on the fsck.
I can make small remixes - 1.4GB and smaller,, but nothing larger.
I wonder how the folks who made Fedora Scientific Spin (2.4GB Live F16
DVD) did it?
Is it because they use KDE and not GNOME?
