http://forums.fedoraforum.org – Hello, I have a problem with booting my fedora 17 from a stick. I'm using Win 7 with liveusb-creator to write Fedora-17-x86_64-Live-KDE.iso. The creator doesn't report any problem but when I try to boot from USB on my laptop, I get the following errors: Code: dracut Warning: Unable to process initqueue dracut Warning: /dev/disk/by-uuid/D841-C9FA does not exist dracut Warning: /dev/mapper/live-rw does not exist Dropping to debug shell. dracut:/# I'm a total noob when it comes to fedora, but I really need it for some school projects. :) Thanks in advance.

Dropping to debug shell 27 weeks 13 hours ago

When i try to install Fedora 17 Live Desktop from a USB thumb Drive it gives me the following error: " dracut Warning: Unable to process initgueue dracut Warning:/dev/disk/by-label/Fedora-17-x86_64-Live-Desktop. is doesnot exist dracut Warning:/dev/mapper/live-rw does not exist

Dropping to debug shell.

dracut:/# "

Any solution?

I've begun having a problem booting F17. I get "dracut warning: unable to process initqueue" and then "dracut warning: /dev/disk-by-uuid .... does not exist". I'm then dropped into a dracut debug shell.

The PC has a single HDD, no RAID or LVM. The HDD has multiple partitions. The PC is dual-boot: F17 and Ubuntu 12.04.

I upgraded my F16 to F17 using the network install CD.

I had some problems during the yum installation phase and had to restart in rescue mode to clean up yum then rerun the upgrade process to get it to complete.

However on first boot I get the dracut warning and I drop out into a dracut# prompt.

After that I revert back the bios setting.
