Description Tom Slominski 2011-05-02 16:31:34 UTC
Description of problem: Basically what the title says. I told livecd-iso-to-disk to copy a DVD .iso to my pen drive and not to verify it with --noverify (I already had it verified, it was okay), and now it's not showing me progress. So I don't know what's going on. I told it to:
livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --noverify /home/tom/Downloads/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD.iso /dev/sdc1


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): livecd-tools-14.2-1.fc14.x86_64


How reproducible: Try burning a DVD to a USB stick with --noverify


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Shove you pen drive into the computer's USB port, and don't try shoving it anywhere else.
2. Open a terminal, become root
3. Execute "livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --noverify <iso path> <disk as in /sda/someting>"
  
Actual results:
[root@laptop tom]# livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --noverify /home/tom/Downloads/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD.iso /dev/sdc1
/home/tom/Downloads/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD.iso uses initrd.img w/o install.img
Size of DVD image: 3523
Size of isolinux/initrd.img: 138
Available space: 3820
Copying DVD image to USB stick
<silence>

Expected results:
[root@laptop tom]# livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --noverify /home/tom/Downloads/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD.iso /dev/sdc1
/home/tom/Downloads/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD/Fedora-15-Beta-i386-DVD.iso uses initrd.img w/o install.img
Size of DVD image: 3523
Size of isolinux/initrd.img: 138
Available space: 3820
Copying DVD image to USB stick
<some numbers here showing the progress>

Additional info: I started the process a while ago and it's still hasn't happened, so I don't even know if anything is happening.

Comment 1 Tom Slominski 2011-05-02 16:33:17 UTC
This happened just now:
Updating boot config file
Installing boot loader
USB stick set up as live image!

So livecd-iso-to-disk is definitely not showing progress with --noverify for me.

Comment 2 Brian Lane 2011-05-03 18:57:32 UTC
Have you confirmed that leaving off --noverify does show progress? That switch only controls whether checkisomd5 is run, nothing else depends on it.

Comment 3 Tom Slominski 2011-05-03 19:10:59 UTC
This is strange. It was okay this time... I guess we can wait and see if anyone else has this issue.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 12:10:39 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
