The Live Image itself is ext4. That is wrapped up in a squashfs file, and then the file and some boot loader files are placed either on a CD or on a USB device. The format of the USB device doesn't matter much, vfat, ext[2,3], etc.. so long as the bootloader can boot it. It does not have to match the filesystem that is in the squashfs image. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating -- Fedora-livecd-list mailing list Fedora-livecd-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-livecd-list
