Announcing - A new way to make live media with livemedia-creator
by Brian C. Lane
livemedia-creator is a new addition to the lorax project. Its goal is to
create live images using anaconda so that we have one place to maintain
the logic defining what an installed system should look like.
lorax-17.1 contains the first release which should be working well
enough for people to experiment with. See the README.livemedia-creator
for details and examples. The current version can be used to create
bootable disk images or to convert those images into a bootable .iso
Development disussion will be on the anaconda-devel-list, and bugs can
be filed against lorax. I'll either take them or you can assign them to
bcl(a)redhat.com

Fedora livecd-creator broken ?
by Valent Turkovic
Just tried respinning fedora-livecd-desktop.ks and
fedora-live-desktop.ks on my Fedora 16 machine and they failed both :(
This is the command used to respin iso image:
livecd-creator -v -t /livecd/tmp/ --cache=/livecd/yum-cache/ -f
Fedora-16-64bit-2012-04 -c fedora-livecd-desktop.ks
and this is how it fails:
Installing: ivtv-firmware ################### [1135/1137]
Installing: iwl4965-firmware ################### [1136/1137]
Installing: ipw2100-firmware ################### [1137/1137]

Can somebody confirm that it works for you or that it also fails? Is
this a known issue?
Cheers,
Valent.
