Announcing - A new way to make live media with livemedia-creator
by Brian C. Lane 24 May '13

24 May '13

livemedia-creator is a new addition to the lorax project. Its goal is to create live images using anaconda so that we have one place to maintain the logic defining what an installed system should look like. lorax-17.1 contains the first release which should be working well enough for people to experiment with. See the README.livemedia-creator for details and examples. The current version can be used to create bootable disk images or to convert those images into a bootable .iso Development disussion will be on the anaconda-devel-list, and bugs can be filed against lorax. I'll either take them or you can assign them to bcl(a)redhat.com -- Brian C. Lane | Anaconda Team | IRC: bcl #anaconda | Port Orchard, WA (PST8PDT)

Is livecd-creator broken?
by Valent Turkovic 29 May '12

29 May '12

I tried last version of livecd-creator currently in Fedora 16, and then updated to latest version from testing-updates repo, but still I get ISO image that is broken... Did anybody get working iso image from Fedora 16 or Fedora 17 kickstart files using livecd-creator ? if you did please share how you managed to get a working iso image.

Re: [Fedora-livecd-list] is liveusb-creator working for you?

I'm not talking about using liveusb-creator but the issue is that you use fedora .ks files and try to make iso image yourseld with livecd-creator, every time I tried I get ISO file that doesn't boot !!! This should be a critical bug and stopper for Fedora, right?

Hi, I created Fedora 16 respin (with latest packages from updates repo) and custom remix iso images but when I transfer iso image to usb with liveusb-creator or via dd command I just get black screen on boot, not even grub menu comes up :( Are others seeing this also or is everything working out for you? I tried both 32 and 64 bit versions, and it is the same on both.
