Description William Cohen 2015-04-22 18:53:41 UTC
Description of problem:  The "part" command in /usr/share/spins-kickstarts/fedora-livecd-desktop.ks doesn't allocate enough space to build the image.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

fedora-kickstarts-0.21.10-1.fc21.noarch

How reproducible:  Every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. follow instructions on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_a_Live_CD to install needed rpms to build livecds
2. Run the following as root:

livecd-creator -v --cache=`pwd`/cache -t `pwd`/tmp --releasever=21 \
--config=/usr/share/spin-kickstarts/fedora-live-desktop.ks \
--logfile=livecd-desktop.log --fslabel=Fedora-21-x86_64-Live-desktop \
>& output-livedesktop.log


Actual results:

Errors like the following about there not being enough space to install the software:

installing package ipw2200-firmware-3.1-10.fc21.noarch needs 248MB on the / filesystem
installing package iwl3160-firmware-1:25.15.12.0-44.fc21.noarch needs 251MB on the / filesystem
installing package iwl5150-firmware-8.24.2.2-44.fc21.noarch needs 252MB on the / filesystem
installing package rootfiles-8.1-17.fc21.noarch needs 252MB on the / filesystem
installing package iwl100-firmware-39.31.5.1-44.fc21.noarch needs 252MB on the / filesystem
Error creating Live CD : Unable to install: Could not run transaction.


Expected results:

Build  Fedora-21-x86_64-Live-desktop.iso

Additional info:

If the fedora-live-desktop.ks is not support anymore, maybe prune it from the kickstarts files

Comment 1 Bruno Wolff III 2015-04-22 22:07:43 UTC
It already has been pruned for f22 and master.
I don't suppose you know how much space is needed to make it work for f21?
I'd be willing to update the f21 package to fix this.

Comment 2 Bruno Wolff III 2015-04-22 23:25:04 UTC
Note that workstation currently uses 6144, so that would be a reasonable value to test.

Comment 3 William Cohen 2015-04-23 02:59:34 UTC
Yes, using 6144 for the part command does allow the iso to be built.
