Error module loop not found

[Junior Tomazelli]

I tried reinstall livecd-tools, download again the cache necessary and
generate using olds kickstarts. But I have this error always, someone can
help me?

Are you building an image with Fedora 9 and updates?  If so, this is due
to a new kernel being pushed which is going to require some other
changes (see bug 472056)

Yes, and how fix this bug to generate one bootable image?

workaround, until either F9 mkinitrd is fixed or F9 .27 kernel config reverted from builtins to kmods,
is to include additional repo in your ks and put patched mkinitrd there,
The one I did for ovirt.org is F9 + upstream commits 859493878a1916b86fecea3892e441e1894ccb10 and ef6fa0d241eafd37620589438ed044461dcb90e7
http://ovirt.org/repos/ovirt/9/src/mkinitrd-6.0.52-2.1ovirt.fc9.src.rpm

I add that repository and have this error:

I'll fix that, but please don't use that repo for general livecds, it's specific for oVirt.
What I wanted to say is: take that SRPM, build it, create local repo with all output RPMs and use it in your ks.

Don´t exists one away to install the old kernel with his structure? If don't
what I have the modify in the source that you suggest?

That would be an interesting feature, but afaik you can't specify package versions in kickstart like in .spec (e.g. here it would be kernel < 2.6.27 )

SRPM I linked to has those upstream patches included, but anyway, next F9 kernel will have this fixed by changing loop back to kmod:
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/kernel/F-9/kernel.spec?r1=1.858&...
If you're impatient, you can build F9 kernel from Fedora CVS.
