[Fedora-livecd-list] Are these error messages serious?

[Ranjan Maitra]

Thanks very much! Is there a place I can post my .ks files so that
someone can take a look and pin-point the errors? Or can I include as
an attachment here (many mailing lists do not allow for attachments to
be included)? 

Many thanks,
Ranjan
