Thanks. Sadly media check is broken if the media is created on OS X. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1189345 And it doesn't even happen if a persistent overlay is created (silent bail on media check). I need a sanity check. I'll float a replacement for both checkisomd5 and dm overlay to Martin Bříza. -- Chris Murphy -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
