Yes it is. However, I'm not able to boot the livecd:
Reading from bottom and upwards:
swithroot: mount failed: No such file or directory
Setuproot: error mounting /sys: no such file or directory
setuproot: mounting /proc no succh file or directory
setuproot: moving /dev failed no such file or directory
mount: missing mount point
mkrootdev: expected fs options
My guess is you're trying to create a Fedora 8 LiveCD? I've seen this
before, the init script in initrd0.img is missing some file labels and
mount points. I've not been able to fix it in F8, but I do know it
composes rawhide quite well. For composing Fedora 8 (or on Fedora 8)
though, you might want to try the F-8 branch of Revisor, which will have
less features (2.0.5) then the master or F-9 branch, or livecd-tools.
Kind regards,
