Description Jens Petersen 2008-03-18 02:20:10 UTC
Description of problem:
I tried to update a live iso using "livecd-creator -b"
but it complains:



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
livecd-tools-015-1.fc9

How reproducible:
every time

Steps to Reproduce:
0. # setenforce 0
1. livecd-creator -c live-fedora-desktop.ks
<later/>
2. livecd-creator -c live-fedora-desktop.ks -b
livecd-fedora-desktop-YYYYMMDD-from-1.iso
  
Actual results:
2. Get error:

# livecd-creator  -c livecd-fedora-desktop.ks -b
livecd-fedora-desktop-200803181149.iso 
Using label 'fedora-desktop-200803181216' and name
'livecd-fedora-desktop-200803181216'
mount: block device /dev/loop2 is write-protected, mounting read-only
Error creating Live CD : _image is not valid before calling mount()

Expected results:
2. new iso to be created

Additional info:
I haven't really tried this before but assume it was working at some point. :)

This does not appear to be a Blocker issue to me.  Punting to Target.
