I am using PCLinuxOS KDE 2011.6 Desktop fully updated.  When I do a remaster the iso is saved in my Root home folder instead of my user home folder.  The only way I can get to the remaster iso is to log in as Root and move the remaster iso to a USB stick then log out of Root and then log back into my user account and copy the remaster iso to user home folder. 

Before I upgraded to the PCLinuxOS KDE 2011.6 version I was using PCLinuxOS KDE 2010.12 and it would save the remaster iso in my user home folder. 

I was wondering if this is the way the PCLinuxOS KDE 2011.6 version is supposed to work or if I have a something setup wrong.

After I downloaded the PCLinuxOS KDE 2011.6 iso I checked the md5sum and they matched.  I've reinstalled PCLinuxOS KDE 2011.6 and also reinstalled mylivecd.

I've searched the forum and it doesn't seem like anyone else is having this problem.

Computer specs.

ASUS M4A79T Deluxe Motherboard
AMD Athlon II x2 Dual-Core Procesor
EVGA nVidia GeForce GT220 Video Card
4GB RAM
Western Digital 1.0TG Hard Drive with a 50GB Root partition, 4GB Swap partition and a 877GB Home partition.
PCLinuxOS KDE 2011.6 Desktop

BTW I've used all the versions of Windows and probably 2 dozen Linux Distros and PCLinuxOS is the best OS I've ever used.

Thank you for such an outstanding OS.

Hello Martel, Welcome.

Have you tried Konqueror/Super user mode?
Look under file tools in menu
(Also you might also want to set permissions for the iso so your user can manipulate it.)

PCLinuxOS 2011 2 - KDE4

mylivecd --tmp=/home/yours/ISO --gzip --nodir ^/home/yours /home/yours/ISO/PClinuxOS.iso

run as root this will use home/users/ISO as tmp and store it there on the fly and not make it part of the iso while doing so as /home is a --nodir  this uses the home space and not the root.  no need to move it later ISO is a dir made in home before you start or any other already there.

ps yours = your user name
