For arm testers too
I just tested RC 1.2 with the server image. It’s rather broken and I don’t think we
should release it.
1. (minor)
With arm-installer you get an error message:
To: /dev/mmcblk0 ....
dd: warning: partial read (8192 bytes); suggest iflag=fullblock
If you add this (w and w/o leading —-) it doesn’t start and you get a usage message
listing all available parameters and that iflag isn’t among them.
(I didn’t add it to the dd command line, most users wouldn’t do that, I suppose)
2. (major)
At the end of arm-installer you get a message:
= Writing image complete!
mount: /tmp/root: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.
sed: /tmp/fw/EFI/fedora/grubenv kann nicht gelesen werden: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht
gefunden
= No U-Boot files found for rock-pi-4-rk3399.
= Installation Complete! Insert into the rock-pi-4-rk3399 and boot.
(a)
You can’t create a usable image without U-Boot files, of course and the final message is
badly misleading.
(b)
We had this (or a similar looking) error briefly in F38 as well. The U-Boot files are
perfectly where they belong. The reason was that several lines before copying the U-Boot
files, the paths were changed specifically for IOT, but these changes were then used for
all other editions, too, when copying the U-Boot files, instead of only for IoT.
So, it’s quite easy to fix, I suppose. But we need another RC, I think.
I got that for all of my SBCs besides RPi4:
= Writing image complete!
mount: /tmp/root: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.
sed: /tmp/fw/EFI/fedora/grubenv kann nicht gelesen werden: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht
gefunden
= Raspberry Pi 4 Uboot is already in place, no changes needed.
= Installation Complete! Insert into the rpi4 and boot.
But it didn’t boot either.
