Removing the spaces worked.

For compatibility, a single argument is treated as the kickstart file: https://github.com/livecd-tools/livecd-tools/blob/master/tools/livecd-creator#L124 Since Fedora Custom isn't quoted, livecd-creator is looking for a kickstart file named 'Custom', which doesn't exist. I opened a pull request that makes the error messages more clear: https://github.com/livecd-tools/livecd-tools/pull/175 Also, I don't think quoting the label will work in this case. You'll need to remove the space or replace it with a hyphen or underscore. Otherwise, you'll hit the "CD labels cannot contain spaces." error message: https://github.com/livecd-tools/livecd-tools/blob/master/tools/livecd-creator#L137 -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Senior Program Manager, Fedora & CentOS Stream Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

I don't use kickstarts, but usually phrases with spaces in them have to be escaped or enclosed in quotes. I see the phrase "Fedora Custom" in your command, but it doesn't appear to have that protection. The error might be misleading, but a response to that. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
