i'm trying to build a livecd using the livecd-creator tool on FC6 but am having some issues. the command completes with an exit code of 0 but the resulting ISO doesn't include the kernel in the boot directory. here are a couple lines from the output of livecd-creator that seem to point to an issue with the chroot environment:
Installed: bash.i386 0:3.1-16.1 grub.i386 0:0.97-13 Dependency Installed: basesystem.noarch 0:8.0-5.1.1 diffutils.i386 0: 2.8.1-15.2.2 fedora-logos.noarch 0:6.0.6-1.fc6 filesystem.i386 0:2.4.0-1 glibc.i686 0:2.5-3 glibc-common.i386 0:2.5-3 info.i386 0:4.8-11.1 libgcc.i386 0:4.1.1-30 libtermcap.i386 0:2.0.8-46.1 mktemp.i386 3:1.5-23.2.2 ncurses.i386 0:5.5-24.20060715 setup.noarch 0:2.5.55-1 termcap.noarch 1: 5.5-1.20060701.1 tzdata.noarch 0:2006m-2.fc6 zlib.i386 0:1.2.3-3 Unknown option or parameter "gconfd-root"
/sbin/mayflower [--help] <out-initrd-image> <kernel-version>
example: /sbin/mayflower /boot/myinitramfs.img `uname -r` /usr/sbin/chroot: cannot run command `/sbin/fixfiles': No such file or directory /bin/cp: cannot stat `/var/tmp/livecd-creator/build-tmpe4dAud/install_root/boot/vmlinuz*': No such file or directory /bin/mv: cannot stat `/var/tmp/livecd-creator/build-tmpe4dAud/install_root/boot/livecd- initramfs.img': No such file or directory
but i'm not really sure how to proceed from this point. before running the command i added /sbin to root's path and i also verified that /sbin/fixfiles exists...so that looks ok in the normal environment. i guess i'm not sure why it wouldn't work in the chroot environment. any ideas or suggestions are appreciated.

Hi TIM,
Well I'm new at this and had the same/similar problem.
I copied all of the contents of the Fedora-Livecd I downloaded and burned to a cd to the /usr/tmp/livecd-creator' directory squashfs.img /boot/ /sysroot/
Before building the image you need to.. First get Super User 'su -' then set SELinux '/usr/sbin/setenforce 0'
also insure you are in the directory where you want the ISO file to be saved.
I'm still working at figuring out the commands and configuration but the above way did get me started with a boot-able ISO img.
Some body else will probably give you better incite but I hope this may help.
