Hi James
I tried once more and rebooted after disabling sandbox and cups.
Still failed after the resize on the fsck.
I can make small remixes - 1.4GB and smaller,, but nothing larger.
I wonder how the folks who made Fedora Scientific Spin (2.4GB Live F16
DVD) did it?
Is it because they use KDE and not GNOME?

Hi John,
the last thing which comes to my mind is that you make sure to make a
reboot after disabling the services. After the reboot it worked on my
system (RHEL 6.2) without any flaws.
HTH,
