Hi again, |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I guess it is more a personal system issue and has nothing to do with the |
| 16 |
new snapshot. I have tried with different config files and I get the same |
| 17 |
results as I know they work fine. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
I guess too that it has something to do with the parameters passed to |
| 20 |
"mount" when the livecd tries to mount the squashfs image and breaks the |
| 21 |
chaining of the boot processes. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Still under investigation (and testing on another pc as well with the same |
| 24 |
config files). |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Thanks for reading. |

Hi all, |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
I use catalyst-2.0-rc41, a stage3-2006.0 as a seed. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
I have got an uncommon type of error whenever I boot from the livecd |
| 42 |
created. |
| 43 |
The livecd stops booting and displays the following error: |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
>> Mounting squashfs fielsystem |
| 46 |
mount: Mounting /newroot/mnt/cdrom/image.squashfs on /newroot/mnt/livecd |
| 47 |
failed: Invalid argument |
| 48 |
>> Copying read-write image contents to tmpfs |
| 49 |
cp: etc: No such file or directory |
| 50 |
cp: root: No such file or directory |
| 51 |
cp: home: No such file or directory |
| 52 |
cp: var: No such file or directory |
| 53 |
>> No cdupdate.sh script found, skipping... |
| 54 |
>> Booting (initramfs) ...... |
| 55 |
chroot: cannot execute /bin/sh: No such file or directory |
| 56 |
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
The boot process ends as described. |
| 59 |
I understand that the problem is that the squashfs image cannot be mounted |
| 60 |
therefore the rest cannot be done. |
| 61 |
2 days before and using the same config files, it was working fine but as |
| 62 |
soon as I have upgraded the portage tarball seed (using catalyst -s latest) |
| 63 |
the problems have started. |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
Why would the squashfs FS not mount? |
| 67 |
|
| 68 |
Thank you for your time and comprehension |
