Tried to make a livecd - have made all the files, but no .iso ??

[t20racerman]

Hi

I'm new to this remaster lark and gave it a go.... with no success     I have read the forum in depth and having excluded /home I tried again and made a livecd.... but it wouldn't boot. kernel panic!

I reread this thread and saw that with my kernel I should use the --ufs unionfs option. I copied the suggested code below and tried again. This is what happened:

[root@nerdnet@no5 pclinux]# mklivecd --ufs unionfs --root / --tmp /tmp --workdir /root/tmp/livecd/ --nodir ^/tmp,^/root/livecd_iso/,^/root/temp/livecd/,^/mnt,^/media,^/home /root/livecd_iso/livecd.iso
mklivecd, version 0.7.2, http://livecd.berlios.de/

The final livecd.iso wasn't made    However, in /root/tmp/livecd/ are 2.4 Gb of files that look like they are ready to be making into an iso - they just aren't!  Does this make sense? I seem to have all the files in places but no iso.

Any ideas what went wrong? Or perhaps what I shold do next?
Thanks

I had the exact same error just today after cleaning out junk and trying to create the .iso for about the 20th time...........

I have been thru the "didya" posting and others, removed the `clean tmp` at each boot, remove /home completely, my / partition is down to @8 GB, so that should be small enough ............

1st mklivecd I have ever had trubs with

  SUCCESS........... after doing some crash thinking (for t20racerman and anyone with this error) and another .iso with debug, turns out the divide by zero error may be related to the mklivecd script borking on some of the files with spaces in them.............in my case, it was the /usr/share/projectM directory I believe.  The files there are all in title form that leaves spaces.  It is not a very necessary directory as it is just for music visualizations.  I deleted it and walla!! an .iso

now I have to figure out the booting problems as posted..........as my live cd cannot find my scsi mount SATA DVD drive /mnt/sda or sdb...only finds /dev/hda
