detect_removable_drives(self)

source code

Detect all removable USB storage devices using HAL via D-Bus

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.detect_removable_drives

mount_device(self)

source code

Mount our device with HAL if it is not already mounted

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.mount_device

unmount_device(self)

source code

Unmount our device if we mounted it to begin with

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.unmount_device

verify_filesystem(self)

source code

Verify the filesystem of our device, setting the volume label if necessary. If something is not right, this method throws a LiveUSBError.

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.verify_filesystem: (inherited documentation)

extract_iso(self)

source code

Extract self.iso to self.dest

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.extract_iso

install_bootloader(self)

source code

Run syslinux to install the bootloader on our devices

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.install_bootloader

get_free_bytes(self, device=None)

source code

Return the number of available bytes on our device

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.get_free_bytes

terminate(self)

source code

Terminate any subprocesses that we have spawned

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.terminate: (inherited documentation)

verify_iso_md5(self)

source code

Verify the ISO md5sum.

At the moment this is Linux specific, until we port checkisomd5 to Windows.

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.verify_iso_md5

get_proxies(self)

source code

Return the proxy settings.

At the moment this implementation only works on KDE, and should eventually be expanded to support other platforms as well.

Overrides: LiveUSBCreator.get_proxies
