Hi,
You should alter your grub command line. This is a bug on Fedora.
Instead of /dev/mapper/live-rw, it should be /dev/sr0, for instance...

Hi,
Ok I can do that, but how do I do that on boot? I could modify the iso
but I don't have the normal grub bootscreen so I can edit it.
I tried replacing the CDLABEL parameter in the kernel arguments but this
gets me nowhere.
You state it's a bug on Fedora, but from a user perspective that doesn't
matter.... it just doesn't work properly. And this hasn't worked for
nearly a year now.
An installer where you have to manually enter parameters on boot in a
limited time window (a couple of seconds otherwise you have reboot
again) doesn't make us admins happy.
