I think you were talking to him but I'll respond.

Build system is Fedora 13, both i686 and x86_64 systems, fully updated.  I have 
not gone out of stock repos except for some multimedia add-ons from RPMFusion.  
I'm not dragging anything from Fedora 14 back.  I'm not using updates-testing.

The repos I'm using for the iso build are the same.  Stock Fedora 13 with 
updates... and a few multimedia packages from RPMFusion.  No Fedora 14 packages 
and no updates-testing.

I build the remixes every time there is a big set of Fedora 13 updates... so 
that they are current.  So far for Fedora 13, I've done 47 builds.  They all 
worked fine... would boot (on KVM where I do my testing) and install... until 
about 2-3 weeks ago.  I happened to go on vacation and was doing builds 
remotely but not able to test them. The current livecd-tools 
(livecd-tools-031-1.fc12) has a build date from Nov. 2009... but I guess some 
packages have gotten updated that expose bugs in some of the systems/tools that 
livecd-creator uses.

It appears some fixes are available in some Fedora 14 packages and we are 
hoping those fixes will flow down to Fedora 13.  As an alternative, it would be 
nice to know what package updates broke things and perhaps roll those back on 
my build system and/or the local mirror I have of the package repos that the 
isos are built from.

Between these two bugs:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626780
And the anaconda/NetworkManager bug that makes the install from live-iso die in 
the middle - which I can't find the bugzilla reference for at the moment... 

...the suspect packages include udev, squashfs-tools, NetworkManager, anaconda, 
and kvm.  Man, this has devolved into a complicated mess. :(

TYL,
