Building F19 image
by James Heather 11 Jun '13

11 Jun '13

Anyone else getting weirdness when using livecd-creator to build an F19 image? I've attached a file containing some of my terminal output. Two different things that really shouldn't be happening: (1) coreutils is not being installed early enough. It's 1214th to get installed here (line 2139). But loads of other installations are going wrong because rm, mkdir and touch are missing (line 67 is where it starts to go wrong). (2) cups-pdf stopped and asked me for a password! See line 3821. The password it was asking for was my password on the host machine. I can only imagine that something that was supposed to be happening inside a chroot jail got run outside, and that it tried to install the virtual printer on the host machine. So lpadmin failed (next line) because user james doesn't have the rights to install a printer. It's still building, but the coreutils problem means it's almost certainly going to be an unusable image. The host is F19 too, by the way, running livecd-tools-19.4-1.fc19.x86_64. James

some questions on making a LiveCD
by Ranjan Maitra 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

Hi, I am trying to put together a LiveCD using the SLiM login manager on Fedora 18. I have two questions: 1. How do I get slim to start up in the LiveCD boot. I have been using the fedora-livecd-lxde.ks as a template. Before Fedora 17, I used to put the following in my kickstart file: # create /etc/sysconfig/desktop (needed for installation) cat > /etc/sysconfig/desktop <<EOF PREFERRED=/usr/bin/pekwm DISPLAYMANAGER=/usr/sbin/slim-dynwm EOF I noticed that slim has moved from sbin/ to bin/ so I made the change, but I can not get this to start up when booting from a LiveCD. How do I get this to start up? I tried including systemctl enable slim but I still can not get it to display the Login Manager. (I do get the text prompt.) How do I fix this? 2. I have a few rpms of my own i would like to include in the LiveCD. How can this be done? Are there examples somewhere that I could look at?
