I can't help you there. the errors you report are all harmless warnings. If there is nothing obvious on the linux consoles, then there is not even something I can start with. And concentrate on 12.1, 11.3 reports are even less useful. (In reply to comment #1) > I can't help you there. the errors you report are all harmless warnings.

If you tell me the information you need and how I get to it I will gladly provide it. I am still a newbie, probably, a hard worker but without all the tools! best wishes Stan Chelchowski boot with kiwidebug=1, so you get a shell once kiwi fails Then you can check hwinfo --cdrom hwinfo --cdrom has no output hwinfo --scsi has it listed hwinfo --usb has it listed as /dev/sdb I realise you are very busy with the imminent deadline for 12.1. Would you prefer I worked on 12.1 RC LiveUSB? For some reason I am having a problem getting hwinfo (full) to pipe to a file.. To precis this issue:- This liveusb boots runs on other hardware. With the HP Microserver the liveusb boots and the initial menu appears and I select Run Live (Gnome). A shortwhile later the boot fails stating no cd or usb found. Created attachment 461139 [details]

Try a 12.1 liveusb and boot it with kiwidebug=1 and try to get the /var/log/ content from it - you might need another USB stick to put the content on. I have created a liveusb from openSUSE-GNOME-LiveCD-Build0025-x86_64.iso. Booted from this liveusb with kiwidebug=1. Content of /var/log/ is boot.kiwi & boot.msg both of 0 bytes. hmm, what's on alt-f3 and alt-f4? Anything useful? Created attachment 461640 [details]
boot.kiwi
boot.kiwi
I must of been too quick when I copied /var/log - Screen Alt -f4 scrolls for quite a while!! here is boot.kiwi, boot.msg is still empty. Created attachment 461642 [details]

11.3 boot.msg
hmm, it didn't even look at sdb. No idea, sorry But with the logs attached, perhaps Marcus can help well this image was built with kiwi 4.43 and from the log I think you ran into the device detection race condition which should be fixed in newer versions. You can rebuild your 11.3 image with the latest kiwi from here http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Virtualization:/Appliances/openSUSE_11.3/ that should then fix it. O.K. I'll have to start on KIWI (big learning curve for me - but that's the fun..) Is there any chance the existing .iso's for 11.3 on software.opesuses.org could be replaced with builds using the newer KIWI? Clearly, I would love to be able to get on and use a 11.3-x86-64 bit .iso. As I told you: concentrate on 12.1 reports. Noone will fix such 11.3 issues for you *** Bug 730049 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** "As I told you: concentrate on 12.1 reports. No one will fix such 11.3 issues for you" O.K. now I understand, it's a show stopper for me, clearly not resolved. The only hope for my project now is if 12.1 has a working iFolder client as that is the feature of the liveusb appliance I am trying to build. I have just tried the 12.1 release LiveCD (Gnome 64bit) - it boots!!! ( 12.1 looks very nice too!) Thanks for your patience with me. Rgds. Stan Chelchowski |
