Bug Description

At the moment make-usb-keys.sh only supports ISO as source, but it could be completely possible to use a running live session as source. In such a case, making a liveUSB key would be possible from a running liveCD (amongst other things).

what happens if you use /dev/cdrom or /dev/dvd as source for make-usb-key.sh ? I will try this later today. still remains open how to make a fresh liveUSB from a running liveUSB...

ok, it doesn't work to specify /dev/dvd - the iso size is detected as 0MB => epic fail later on

I try to fix this one tomorrow so we have it on the release.
With what I have in mind it should not be an issue to make liveUSB from a liveUSB

It works with some workaround.

I'll make new bugs for improving it more specifically.
