[Fedora-livecd-list] IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/tmp/...'

[Andrew Overholt]

Hi,

For the past few days I've been unable to create a live image on my laptop.
Is there something wrong with my machine or with the way I'm invoking
livecd-creator?  I'm on F7 i386 with some rawhide stuff.

$ sudo ../creator/livecd-creator --cache /tmp/fedoradevelcache -c livecd-fedora-developer.ks -f Fedora-Developer-20070923
