Hi. Is a "setarch i686 livecd-creator ..." to create a i686 based live image on a x86_64 host not working anymore? > # setarch i686 livecd-creator -c > /usr/share/livecd-tools/livecd-fedora-base-desktop.ks Using label > 'fedora-base-desktop-200809060049' and name > 'livecd-fedora-base-desktop-200809060049' mke2fs 1.41.0 (10-Jul-2008) > Filesystem label=fedora-base-desk > OS type: Linux > Block size=4096 (log=2) > Fragment size=4096 (log=2) > 262144 inodes, 1048576 blocks > 10485 blocks (1.00%) reserved for the super user > First data block=0 > Maximum filesystem blocks=1073741824 > 32 block groups > 32768 blocks per group, 32768 fragments per group > 8192 inodes per group > Superblock backups stored on blocks: > 32768, 98304, 163840, 229376, 294912, 819200, 884736 > > Writing inode tables: done > Creating journal (32768 blocks): done > Writing superblocks and filesystem accounting information: done > > This filesystem will be automatically checked every 28 mounts or > 180 days, whichever comes first.

Also, 'setarch i686 uname -m' should give basically the same information for what arch is used

And maybe it's related that commands like "LANG=en_US.UTF-8 > yum ...." are also not working anymore. What's the output of i686 python -c 'import rpmUtils.arch ; print rpmUtils.arch.getBaseArch()' Also, make sure you don't have an /etc/rpm/platform as that overrides anything from uname()
