These files do not exist at this point. The problem is that the LiveCD freezes the moment the Automatic Login is clicked. > You can try also booting with: > > 'xdriver=vesa' and see if it helps any. I have tried xdriver=vesa nomodeset as well as kernelmodeset=0 to no avail. The freeze happens irrespective of whether I use the XFCE or (Gnome) F11 LiveCD. I was able to get an installation done with the LiveCD using textinstall and removing rhgb but I was not given any option on custom layout for partitioning my HDD. Worse, on firstboot, the machine refused to go beyond the timezone selection: froze ten times when the "next" button was clicked. I wonder if the F10 LiveCD would work!
