Problems making LiveUSB of Omega
Hi, I downloaded the omega-10-desktop.iso which is the Omega 10 final release. The SHA1SUM matches. I tried to use the livecd-iso-to-disk utility to make a LiveUSB out of the ISO. However, I tried it twice, and both time it fails. The first time I tried, on booting from the pen drive my laptop said Missing Operating System. The second time, the SYSLINUX prompt came, but then a message was displayed saying linux: Can't find a kernel or something of that sort. Then I got a boot: prompt, and anything I typed there said foo is not a valid kernel image. The messages may not be exact. The same pen drive worked perfectly fine with Fedora 10. Please tell me how to make a LiveUSB out of the omega ISO. Thanks, Rohan -- Rohan Dhruva

I just tried converting Omega 10 into a LiveUSB on a new key and it worked just fine. Not sure what the problem is. Are you trying with persistence? Can you give me the exact command you are trying? Might want to use --reset-mbr Rahul

Might want to use --reset-mbr Rahul Thanks to both of you. After trying with --reset-mbr, the LiveUSB works perfectly. Really good spin, thank you for making it! One question - pardon me for hijacking this thread. Is there any way to re-instate the fedora artwork after installation? Can I remove omega-release package, and install fedora-release and fedora-logos package to get back pristine fedora? -- Rohan Dhruva
