Hi All,

I can get the 64 bit live cd to boot in KVM (host = SL 6.2 x64)

      Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-XFCE.iso

But, when I switch my CDROM drive to

      Fedora-16-i686-Live-XFCE.iso

Fedora goes through the motions of trying to boot,
then dies at

     Starting SYSV: Late init script for live image....
     Started SYSV: Late init script for live image..
     Start SYSV: Late init script for live image

I tried re-downloading the ISO, no joy.  If I burn
to a CD and directly boot to it (no virtual machine),
the CD does work.

Any idea how to fix this?

Many thanks,
-T
