So something that checked the size of the mksquashfs and switched automatically between the two and emitting a message about this could be acceptable? I don't really know python yet, so I may not be able to easily change my previous patch to do that, but want to check before going down that road. I think having access to teh extra space will be nice for the Games Spin as things are pretty tight right now and a few hundred MB would be nice to have. -- Fedora-livecd-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-livecd-list
