I just tried isomaster-1.3.4-3.fc11.x86_64 and it worked ok (freshly
installed).
What happens if you delete or rename your .isomaster config file?

Thanks!
The problem went away when I effectively deleted my old .isomaster file
by renaming it. It contained references
When I installed Fedora 11, I did a little rearranging of my file
system. In Fedora 10, I used /opt/tmp for isomaster and that directory
does not exist anymore. When isomaster recreated its configuration
file, it used /tmp.
It appears that isomaster is sensitive to directory paths disappearing
on it. There was no error message anywhere that I could find.
