livecd-creator expects syslinux to be available in the package repository. Apparently you have misunderstood in some way what that thread was about, but decided to comment on it as if you knew what I was even talking about. If you try to run livecd-creator without syslinux package available, it will fail. It is an absolute requirement. It also is very required, syslinux contains the files which make the CD boot, known as ISOLINUX. > If you want it, on say the desktop image, then you need to > convince the desktop team that it helps with rebuilding images enough that > its worth including. I can see clearly now this is some sort of joke to you, or you seriously believe when I say "DVD ISO" this reads to you "LIVEDVD ISO" They are two different things. Don't comment on my posts when you don't have a full understanding of the issue at hand. > As far as the space being insignificant to the games spin, what that means > to me, is that if it gets included in the desktop spin, I am very unlikely > to bother putting in a rule to remove it to save about 1 MB.

It is currently over 4.1 GB. 3.2 GB is the SIZE OF THE FEDORA DVD DISC IMAGE ISO9660 INSTALLER IMAGE.
