Hi,
> 'loop' mount iso, change grub.config, save as new iso, install to usb.

Thanks for the advice, but this seems not to work:

$mount -o loop /work/down/setup/Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-5.iso
/mnt/loop
mount: /dev/loop0 is write-protected, mounting read-only

then unmounting and mounting with "rw" option fails:

mount -o loop,rw
/work/down/setup/Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21-5.iso /mnt/loop
Still Again:
mount: /dev/loop0 is write-protected, mounting read-only

So obviously I cannot make any change to the mounted images.

Any idea how can I get rid of the "write protect" of the iso?

Regards,
Kevin
