I can't seem to find where this is written? I added a quiet  argument to
mkisofs but that apparently wasn't it.

Where can I turn this off?
That seems to be when it runs the squash (line 900-903). I don't,
however, see a way to make mksquashfs be quite. You could add
stdout=subprocess.PIPE, but then you need to deal with the stdout buffer
or the call will hang.

-no-progress appears to be the option to mksquashfs that you are looking for. I too have been annoyed by its output in a logfile.

I thought about throwing together a patch to finally implement some kind of --verbose/--debug/--quiet to livecd-creator. But I'm not exactly sure where the progress bar falls into that.

Perhaps the correct way would be to somehow detect if the livecd-creator output is going to a terminal, and only do the progress bar in that situation. I know this is possible, as a bug I had in cleanupDeleted dealt with the fact that fsck (in the absense of a flag) behaved differently based on whether or not the output was redirected.
