Problem with Fedora 15 livecd-creator

[Scott Dowdle]

Greetings,

I've been keeping up with Fedora 15 development.  I'm building a remix of Fedora
15 inside of a Fedora 15 VM.  The Fedora 15 VM in question is fully updated as of today. 
I just recently ran into a problem with my 10th rebuild.  I've run into package
availability issues here and there over the cycle of my Fedora 15 rebuilds but generally
speaking, I haven't really had many problems.

Here's the problem I've run into today... and I've tried rebuilding it 4 times
now... with reboots between each attempt and I'm consistently getting the following
error:

       Error creating Live CD : fsck after resize returned an error!
       image to debug at /tmp/resize-image-XXXXXX

Anyone else running into this issue?  I've made sure I'm not hitting a full disk
or anything else that is ordinary.

TYL,

Apparently a few people are hitting this. jlaska suggests making sure
dracut-009-10 and abrt-2.0.2-5.fc15 are installed when building the
image. I'm giving it a try in my f15 mock right now.

Discussion still underway in #devel ... I may be missing some additional
changes.  However, some folks have reported success already using the
updated dracut and abrt that resolve F15 blocker bugs.

Thanks,

Make that #fedora-devel

I don't see newer dracut nor abrt packages in fedora-updates-testing.  Where might I
find those?

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/abrt-2.0.2-5.fc15  - will land
on updates-testing this evening (or when the next nightly repo update
succeeds)

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/dracut-009-10.fc15 - same, the
status 'pending' suggests it is scheduled to be pushed, but hasn't yet.
This will land in 'updates-testing' (or 'stable') once the repos are
refreshed next.

In the meantime, you can always download packages directly from the
build system (koji) and update locally.

        # yum install koji
        # koji download-build abrt-2.0.2-5.fc15
        # koji download-build dracut-009-10.fc15 
        # yum update abrt*.rpm dracut*.rpm

If you encounter trouble with koji, there should be plenty of man pages
or online references.

Thanks,
James

I downloaded all of the packages and upgraded them but I'm still getting the same
error during build:

  Error creating Live CD : fsck after resize returned an error!
  image to debug at /tmp/resize-image-XXXXXX

Any other ideas?

The new packages were in the host I built on... but not in the chroot it built the
remix... if that makes a difference?  If so, I'll have to add the newer packages to
the repos my build pulls from.

You are right, it does make a difference.  For any packages not yet in
the online repos, you must download them locally, and add a kickstart
'repo' [1] line to ensure they are included during image composition.

However, in the meantime, updated F15-RC3 images with those fixes are
available for testing if desired. [2]

James
