View Full Version : Not able to create bootable liveCD with livecd-creator

Hello

I am trying to create a liveCD ( a minimal one first and then the next level !! ). I have a Fedora 10 system (2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 ) and I installed livecd-tools-020.1-1.fc10.i386 in it. I tried to create a live CD using the following command.

livecd-creator --config=/root/livecd-fedora-minimal.ks --fslabel=Fedora10_11 --cache=/var/cache/live | tee livecd_10.log

It created iso image as Fedora10_11.iso. But when I tried to boot that cd, it failed with the following message on the screen.

mkrootdev: expected fs options
mount: missing mount point
setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file of directory
.......

What could be the problem.

The following are the options given during boot through isolinux.cfg

vmlinuz0 initrd=initrd0.img root=CDLABEL=Fedora10 rootfstype=iso9660 ro liveimg quiet

In the livecd_creator output, I can see the following warnings. Will that be a cause for this failure ?

]WARNING: No module ide-cd found for kernel 2.6.23.1-42.fc8, continuing anyway
WARNING: No module =ata found for kernel 2.6.23.1-42.fc8, continuing anyway

Thanks in advance

Why are you trying to use a F8 kernel ?

hmmm .. that is a valid point ... I am not sure why that is happening .. Let me verify that once again

One more question is - right now nash is the default shell being used in initrd. Is there any way we can inject busybox and use shell in that .. or another way is to use bash directly in it .. Can I make some changes to livecd scripts to make these kind of customizations ?
