I do not mean to sound like an ass here - especially since you have spent
hours of time ripping this stuff apart on Fedora live media (I actually
thought initially since you were digging so deep, you worked there), but I
mean really - what is the point?

Are you planning on using a Fedora Live Media image as production?  If so,
you clearly have not encountered all the stuff that usually does not work
on live media and should create your own anyhow.

I apologize, but I just do not get the effort spent here by anyone.
