Description Todd 2015-05-10 08:17:34 UTC 
Dear livecd-tools maintainer,

May we please have a more recent version of livecd-tools for EPEL 6?  

Currently EPEL 6 is on 13.4.5-1 and FC21 is on 21.5-1.

And 13.4.5 is a complete pain in the neck as it limits persistence to 3 GB on a 16 GB flash drive.  Plus it has all kinds of problems booting off of Supermicro BIOS'es

Many thanks,
-T

I'll make updates for specific problems, but I'm not going to backport anything to rhel6.

I am not sure what you mean.  The 3 GB barrier and boot problems are both specific problems.
Comment 3 Brian Lane 2015-05-12 15:58:04 UTC 
Right, what I mean is I'll work on fixing those specific things when I get a chance. But there won't be a total rebase of the code, specific fixes only.
