A live system is non-trivial. It needs a liveuser and root with no
passwd for starters. Did you start from your own kickstart? I would
suggest fedora-live-base.ks as a good starting point:

<http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=spin-kickstarts.git;a=tree>

Your best bet probably would be to include fedora-live-base and just
add your own package selection and customisation in yours.
