Archiso, archiso_early, and udev issues with live cd

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi Guys,

I'm attempting to create my own Arch Live CD and I can't get the archiso
hook to complete successfully.

In March 2010, Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi removed the archiso_early hook from
archiso.git, which used to mount /dev/archiso (I'm not entirely sure what
this pointed to, but it's clearly required). In the commit message he said it
was removed because we could rely on /dev/disk/by-label to get the device
(created by udev).

However I have built a custom live CD using mkarchiso and there is no
/dev/disk available to me, so this boot process fails.

I was just wondering if anyone knew why this is missing, and what I can do
to get this booting?

My mkinitcpio.conf file looks like this:

*HOOKS="base udev memdisk archiso archiso_pxe_nbd archiso_loop_mnt pata scsi
sata usb fw pcmcia filesystems usbinput"*

So udev is definately being run before archiso, but I only have the
following in /dev:

   - char
   - console
   - cpu_dma_latency
   - full
   - hpet
   - input
   - kmem
   - kmsg
   - loop0
   - mcelog
   - mem
   - network_latency
   - network_throughput
   - null
   - port
   - psaux
   - ptmx
   - random
   - rtc
   - rtc0
   - snapshot
   - tty
   - tty0-63
   - ttyS0-3
   - urandom
   - vcs
   - vcs1
   - vcsa
   - vcsa1
   - vga_arbiter
   - zero

Thanks,
tommed
