I've used Dirk Westfal's article which describes how to create a Fedora 4 livecd, to create my own customized livecd. It worked fine up to FC5 with kernel 2.6.17-1.2187_FC5. While trying to boot a FC6 livecd with the latest 2.6.19 kernel, it didn't boot.
Do anyone knows if the RPMs that are used in this article are updated, and may be downloaded from anywhere?
Unfortunately the livecd-creator seems not to be able to do what I want, or is it?

I've used Dirk Westfal's article which describes how to create a Fedora 4 livecd, to create my own customized livecd:
http://fedoranews.org/mediawiki/index.php/Creating_a_Fedora_Core_4_LiveCD
I've tried to use the HOWTO and RPMs to create fedora based livecd (console mode only). I've installed FC6, and now, I try to make the Livecd again. With kernel 2.6.17-12187_FC5, all works fine, also on a FC6 install. However, with the latest 2.6.19 fc6 kernel, I get the following error messages when booting from this kernel?
RAMDISK: ext2 filesystem found at block0 RAMDISK: Loading 8000KiB (1 disk) into ramdisk... done. EXT2-fs: blocksize too small for device grow_buffers: requested out-of-range block 18446744071562067968 for device ram0 isofs_foll_super: bread failed, dev=ram0, iso_blknum=17, block=-2147483648 No filesystem could mount root, tried: ext2 iso9660 Kernel panic - not syncing
Do you have any ideas what I have to change to get this kernel booting? I suppose the important message is: EXT2-fs: blocksize too small for device, but I don't understand why the 2.6.17 boots and 2.6.19 doesn't.
