thats from narnia right?
anyway, this really sounds more and more as a random, unsolvable problem
(or solvable by a solution *way* too easy)
ive been thinking, is there a way to make the linuxcoin USB stick recognized as a HDD isntead of removable media? it just feels like the problem is there becouse a W7 installation works, but thats recognized as an HDD
Nope I'm afraid not I'd guess the board just don't like the sticks. I will look into this in a while to see if I can help you out more.
hi there,
can anybody post me a working install script to hdd, i want to use a usb stick.
but i dont want use a unetbootin stick.
the hdd installer method doesnt work for me, i got many errors @ first boot.
i try this, but i didnt have some luck.
Gparted /dev/sda1 ext2, /dev/sda2 swap
mkdir /mnt/hdd
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/hdd
rsync -avH --exclude=/proc/* --exclude=/dev/* \
--exclude=/sys/* --exclude=/tmp/* --exclude=/lost+found \
--exclude=/var/tmp/* --exclude=/boot/grub/* \
--exclude=/media/* --exclude=/live/ \
--exclude=/mnt/* / /mnt/hdd
sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/hdd/dev
sudo mount -t proc /proc /mnt/hdd/proc
sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/hdd/sys
sudo mount -t devpts devpts /mnt/hdd/dev/pts
sudo chroot /mnt/hdd /bin/bash
apt-get install grub2
nano /etc/fstab
none /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 / ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda2 none swap sw 0 0
That script is incomplete or been copied wrong ? What are the errors your getting ?
@ rsync copy i got
sent 2324225093 bytes received 1227751 bytes 1463009.02 bytes/sec
total size is 2319160468 speedup is 1.00
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous error3) at main.c(1070) [sender=3.0.8]
on first boot i got some inode errors, i fix it with fsck.
on sec boot i got this:
1. /script/local-premount/libsplashy not found
2. /etc/init.d/rc Pidof: permission denied
3. /etc/init.d/udev Pidof: permission denied (~15 times)
4. /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh Pidof: permission denied
i change the root password before i start the copy with rsync, its that the problem ?
Edit:
I cant test it for now, but its maybe possible to byte copy the squashfs image with?
dd if=/live/image/filesystem.squashfs of=/dev/sda1
rsync is failing and files are being skipped. You checked the MD5sum of your ISO ? I do know of a small problem with 0.2.1 where some image files are corrupt within the filesystem. But haven't caused me any problems when installing to the local HDD.
what errors are you getting when following my tutorial ? I will be adding a installer to 0.2-final. It's due for release this week
