Created attachment 1932289 [details] Output of command with various options Description of problem: Running livecd-iso-to-disk seems to always end with an error message regardless the options passed in the command line. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): livecd-iso-to-mediums-31.0-2.fc37.x86_64 How reproducible: Easy (systematic) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Get an official ISO image (tested with Fedora-Xfce-Live-x86_64-37-1.7.iso, Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-37-1.7.iso, and Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-36-1.5.iso) 2. As root, run livecd-iso-to-disk with any mix of --format/--reset-mbr /--efi on device /dev/sd<x> or /dev/sd<x>1. See attachment : livecdisotodisk_f37.txt Actual results: The command fails with different error message according to arguments. See attachment : livecdisotodisk_f37.txt Expected results: Successful boot media creation, as in the past with previous livecd-iso-to-disk versions with previous ISO images. Additional info: It seems that starting from F37, ISO images are now using GPT instead of MSDOS partition table, but this is not the only root cause of the issue.
OK, as a workaround it is possible to directly burn an ISO image to the USB stick using dd, but livecd-iso-to-disk is handy to have the first partition of the USB stick read-write so that it can also be used as a normal storage device on any computer and also have access to these files once booted live from this stick.
I got the same error for iso file Fedora-MATE_Compiz-Live-x86_64-37-1.7.iso because the iso file does not contain isolinux nor syslinux folder. Iso file Fedora-MATE_Compiz-Live-x86_64-36-1.5.iso worked for me.
