Failed to create fedora remix

[rohitdamkondwar]

I have been trying to create a fedora live cd with some more packages. I am trying to make fedora live cd on x86_64 arch for i686. I haven't changed the kickstart file(fedora-livecd-desktop.ks) much.

But I am getting the following error :

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pykickstart/commands/partition.py:251: UserWarning: A partition with the mountpoint / has already been defined. warnings.warn(("A partition with the mountpoint %s has already been defined.") % pd.mountpoint) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/livecd-creator", line 221, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/bin/livecd-creator", line 203, in main creator.mount(options.baseon, options.cachedir) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/imgcreate/creator.py", line 525, in mount os.symlink("/proc/self/mounts", self._instroot + "/etc/mtab")
OSError: [Errno 17] File exists

Command i have tried : setarch i686 livecd-creator -f MyFedora -b Fedora-17-i686-Live-Desktop.iso -c fedora-livecd-desktop.ks --cache=temp

temp is my directory to store cached packages

Please help.

Hello rohitdamkondwar,

I suspect the issue is with this part of the command "-b Fedora-17-i686-Live-Desktop.iso" . I believe the ....iso needs to be in the directory you are running the command from but I don't have much experience with the "based on" function and have had better luck building a new iso from a .ks instead of adding to a existing iso.

Hope this helps,
