So far the comments don't seem too bad, though I probably haven't read them all. We'll probably know within a week if the process is going to be smooth or not. I am going to take a look at building the updated squashfs locally by the end of the weekend. (Maybe yet tonight.) If the patches get accepted, I'd like to get the new squashfs-tools into rawhide. (I have asked Kyle for commit access for squashfs-tools, but haven't heard back yet.) I can also look at a minimal patch set for livecd-tools so I can be ready to test that right away if we get a kernel with the patches. I'd like to have a pretty good idea about whether or not this is going to work for F13 by the end of New Years weekend, so that the Spin owners can commit to using extra space fairly safely if they desire with some time before feature freeze. (Though the Games Spin is the one most likely to take advantage of this.) Any safety checks or command line option additions should probably be done by freature freeze so that they are ready for the alpha builds. I don't think they are necessary to have for feasibility testing. -- Fedora-livecd-list mailing list Fedora-livecd-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-livecd-list
