Jareon et al,

I am interested in creating a sping that is designed for accessibility (includes brltty, emacspeak, orca etc).

I am having a few problems getting even the fedora-live-base.ks file to generate a working livecd.

When I generate it and boot from the cd I get a ll kinds of errors mostly concerning an inability to mount the root file system and/or the proc/dev file systems.

The steps I took were:

$ livecd-creator -c fedora-live-base.ks -f base
the base.iso was created.
wodim -dao dev=0,0,0 base.iso

The cd was burned without errors.

reboot

after teh timeout from isolinux, I get a ton of errors.

Since I am blind, it is difficult for me to debug the startup process without sighted assistance, and I wish there were a way to use qemu to test the iso before burning it to a cd, but as far as I can tell qemu is not accessible :)

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
