I'm creating a live livecd with catalyst. When I boot the CD I get error about no space left on the device. "device" is the initrd at that moment. I mounted it via loopback and the filesystem was fill with 100%. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create LiveCD 2. Boot CD Actual Results: Boot process stop as no file can be written to initrd. Expected Results: CD should boot without any problems.

This has nothing to do with the official release media.
After some searching I think it's genkernel's fault.
I'm pretty sure this is also fixed in some of the experimental versions of genkernel that will be hitting the portage tree once they've stabilized a little bit in testing.
Please try 3.1.5 in Portage; if you still get an issue with that then please reopen this bug. Thanks.
I updated and changed some kernel patches and the stage tarball for my last CD and didn't get an error this time (still with genkernel-3.1.1b). But I will report if I manage to trigger the error again. Thanks anyway, Christian
