In this screen, you can select an image or image file system you're converting and a target type (livecd or liveusb). You can also specify a temporary directory and a target image directory. It would be very helpful to specify them to different partitions, if you just have several small partititons. Checkbox "Launch a shell" is used to start a vte terminal embedded in current window, so you can check the image's file system before it is packaged and compressed as a livecd/liveusb image.

After configuration, click "Forward" to go to the next screen, "Convert".

In this screen, conversion is done and processes and progress are shown. If you checked "Launch a shell", you will see a vte box in the current window, which looks like this screen:

Moblin Image Convertor UI Launch Shell

You must enter "exit" to exit this shell session and continue to progress, otherwise it will always wait for that shell session.

At last, you will get a result screen which will notify you of success or failure, along with the resulting image path.
