I don't know why you need a hybrid image - for ages I have used livecd-iso-to-disc to write the DVD install iso to a usbkey and it works fine for me (for several generations of Fedora as released as well as the alpha and betas). You do need a reasonably up to date Fedora system to run the command but certainly if you have f13 or f14 it should be fine - (of course you have to have a large enough usbkey to hold the full file! and you also need to have it unmounted when you run the livecd-iso-to-disc command, and of course need livecd-tools installed on the system that will write the usbkey!) -- mike c -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
