Greetings,
I am trying to build a Centos 6.4 LiveCD using the config provided per Centos minimal Live kickstart using command:
livecd-creator --config=centos-livecd-minimal.ks --fslabel=c6min-live --debug --verbose --cache=ssclone-rpm-cache --logfile=ssclone.log
I included rsync, samba and mc in the kickstart file
The build succeded in making an iso but the iso fails to boot on KVM based vm and the real hardware with real cd.
the error comes from dracut: dracut: FATAL: Don't know how to handle 'root=live:CDLABEL=c6min-live' dracut: Refusing to continue
I am almost tearing my hair out on this.
Any help is appriciated
TIA

aught warning during installation of packages"warning: /etc/dracut.conf created as /etc/dracut.conf.rpmnew"
Now how do I go about renaming the /etc/dracut.conf.new
and more importantly why the downloaded packages from official centos repository has to do this to me?
Centos is supposed "just work", right?

Check the Label of your ISO file, apparently it has to be exactly "c6min-live", or you need to fix something in your kickstart file.

It looks like you already have /etc/dracut.conf when that package is installed.

I suggest that you enable mdraid and dmraid, so you can use that LiveCD on Servers with software RAIDs.
