[Fwd: Fedora 10 Snapshot 3]

[Ed McNierney]

James -

I have been unable to write Snap3 on any SD card, despite a few  
tries.  I cannot avoid getting "out of space on device" errors (this  
is a 4GB SD card), such as:

It is OK to use this media.
Copying live image to USB stick
`/media/cdtmp.Y88GdY/LiveOS/ext3fs.img' -> `/media/usbdev.udmJ2w/ 
LiveOS/ext3fs.img'

USB stick set up as live image!

And the SD card filesystem is left in a moderately hosed-up state.   
Advice/corrections would be much appreciated!  Thanks.
