Description Matt Hirsch 2013-01-23 20:49:22 UTC

Description of problem: Following the man page of livecd-creator, I tried

# livecd-creator --config=/usr/share/livecd-tools/livecd-fedora-minimal.ks

This file does not exist, unfortunately, (bug against the man page) so I found the new path, and retried with:

# livecd-creator --config=/usr/share/doc/livecd-tools-18.14/livecd-fedora-minimal.ks

I get this output:


Skipping (/sys/fs/selinux,/sys/fs/selinux) because source doesn't exist.
Transaction couldn't start:
installing package kernel-3.8.0-0.rc4.git1.1.fc19.x86_64 needs 50MB on the / filesystem
installing package lldpad-0.9.45-3.fc19.x86_64 needs 51MB on the / filesystem
installing package fcoe-utils-1.0.25-2.fc19.x86_64 needs 51MB on the / filesystem
installing package anaconda-19.1-2.fc19.x86_64 needs 63MB on the / filesystem
Error creating Live CD : Unable to install: Could not run transaction.

Increasing 'part / --size 1024' to 'part / --size 2048' in the kickstart file fixes this.

Fedora should ship a working minimal kickstart file.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
livecd-tools-18.14-1.fc18.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run livecd-creator --config=/usr/share/doc/livecd-tools-18.14/livecd-fedora-minimal.ks
  
Actual results:
Error due to insufficient disk space allocated in kickstart file.

Expected results:
Minimal livecd image

Comment 1 Brian Lane 2013-01-23 23:03:42 UTC

Thanks. I hadn't realized we were including an example. It really isn't meant to be complete, so I simplified it so that it will build. For complete running systems see the spin-kickstarts package.
