F11 Livecd-creator

I perform the following procedures to custom spin fedora livecd:
1. Livecd-creator (Windows) to burn livecd (default .iso) to USB Device.
2. Boot Fedora11 LiveCD from USB.
3. Discovered that there is need to customize the packages.
4. yum install livecd-tools spin-kickstarts
5. change rootfs size in .ks file to 5GB
6. livecd-creator -c /root/fedora-live-base.ks -f f11livecd.iso -t . --cache=.

Following error appears:

mke2fs 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)

LiveCD should be created with no issues.
My system is up-to date, I have used windows live usb creator to burn the F11
Live CD onto USB, then I booted from the USB, installed livecd tools, and am trying to spin another LiveCD ISO with larger RootFS. I also tried this command with default .ks files, same error occurred, so it is not related to RootFS size. I changed the '/' fs type to vfat instead of ext4, same results appear. I am using a local repo which I created and
adjusted the group info in local-comp.xml file, so I do not have doubts the local repo is the reason behind this. Please help.

Sorry, I can't help you since I've never tried to produce a spin while running from a live CD, just doesn't sound like a good idea to me. You should probably bite the bullet and either install to actual hardware or install in VirtualBox then try again. ;-)

Also, not sure why you are editing ''local-comp.xml"? Adding a local repo is as easy as listing it in the kickstart file...
