=====Important update needed for liveusb-creator in f15 final release=====

*https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=706122 source

Here's the details of what I did to test your update:

1. I downloaded your updated RPM:

http://harald.fedorapeople.org/downloads/dracut/dracut-009-11.fc15/dracut-009-11.fc15.noarch.rpm

2. I placed your updated RPM into the yum repository directory

(yum/repo/noarch) that is created when building the Network Security Toolkit

ISO image (a distribution based on Fedora).

3. I built the "minimal" NST ISO image using the command: (cd livecd; make

iso-minimal). This takes about 30 minutes in my environment.

4. I verified in the log file that the new dracut package was picked up and

installed in the new ISO image. On a side note, I've been noticing the

following message when dracut is added during livecd-creator builds (it

suggests to me that someone else is producing a dracut.conf file - not that

there is necessarily anything wrong with that, just something I noticed):

Installing: plymouth-scripts ##################### [499/827]

warning: /etc/dracut.conf created as /etc/dracut.conf.rpmnew

Installing: dracut ##################### [500/827]

5. I used the LiveUSB Creator tool to install the ISO image to a USB memory

stick and enabled a 256MB persistent overlay.

6. I booted a machine using the USB memory stick (did not see error message

about missing /overlayfs anymore).

7. I modified the /etc/hosts file (just added a line)

8. I rebooted the system (did not see error message about missing /overlayfs

anymore)

9. When I looked at the /etc/hosts file, my modifications were still there(persisted in the overlay file).

So, things seem to be working again related to the live USB overlay filesystem

as far as I am concerned and this ticket can be closed as far as I amconcerned.
