Thanks for this suggestion. Unfortunately this goes above my Linux abilities. Thanks anyway

You can also use the GUI application Etcher to write these kinds of images to a USB stick if you like. It's free, open-source and cross-platform. https://etcher.io/

johanheinesen,

could you please post the install_on_sda.sh script on your system (and what you get if you run
"ls -l /usr/local/sbin/install_on_sda.sh")?

If it is still anything like the version on the gentoo-on-b3 image ( here ), there shouldn't be much that could cause it to fail before printing ...

Hi MouettE,

there were two reasons for dropping shorewall really:


With the version currently in the archlinuxarm.org tree (v5.2.0.4-1), I was getting a number of perl errors (as well as warnings) compiling my existing rule set (perl on the image is v5.28.0-1). Initially I thought this was just ...

Hello,

I've just released version 1.6.0 of the live-USB image of Arch Linux for the B3 on GitHub ( here ). All included packages are up-to-date against the archlinuxarm.org tree, as of 14 September 2018. The kernel supplied on the image is 4.18.7-1-ARCH, and as before, will be updated (along with ...

In testing, adding the ifconfig stanzas into /boot/kexec.sh (and disabling the setethermac service) seems to work fine.

Accordingly I've just posted a tweaked 2.1.1 release of the image with this incorporated.

Thanks again!

I have just posted a tweaked 2.1.1 version of the above gentoo-on-b3 image here . This incorporates Gordon's suggested fix to ensure the Ethernet adaptors do not lose their MACs during kexec bootloading. It replaces the approach used in prior versions of this image, which involved a userland service ...

Thanks Gordon -

yes, without my setethermac userland service from the Arch or gentoo-on-b3 live-USBs running, that's what I'd expect to happen.

Setting a spoof IP address before kexec sounds like a nice trick to workaround this though, and I should be able to add this to the kexec.sh script the ...

NB: the following applies to users of my gentoo-on-b3 live USB versions 2.0.1 and 2.0.0 .

Users of the latest 2.1.0 release are unaffected, and need take no action.

Introduction

If you are subscribed to the rsync mirror at rsync://isshoni.org/gentoo-portage-b3, and using the automatic signed ...

This second stage bootloader was in fact designed from the ground up, because Sakaki's kexec loader left my B3 (with the older U-Boot 2010.06-rc2-00064-gf41e8d8-dirty) without network.


Hi Gordon - did you experience the above networking issue booting the gentoo-on-b3 image, or your own? I found ...

Hello,

I've just released version 2.1.0 of the live-USB image of Gentoo Linux for the B3 on GitHub ( here ). All included packages are up-to-date against the Gentoo tree, as of 4 September 2018. A full package list may be viewed here , kernel config here . Gentoo profile 17.0 is used throughout ...

Hi -

I've just released version 1.5.0 of the Gentoo live USB for the B2 - please see my post here .

This bootable image has a custom (17.0-based) profile, uses a 4.9.72 LTS kernel, and has weekly-autobuild binhost backing for the installed packages (which are up-to-date against the Gentoo tree on ...

Hello,

I've just released version 1.5.0 of the live-USB image of Gentoo Linux for the Bubba|2 (B2) on GitHub ( here ). The kernel has been upgraded to version 4.9.72 . All included packages are up-to-date against the Gentoo tree, as of 3 September 2018. A full package list may be viewed here ...

Hello,

if you are using my https://isshoni.org/b2pie binhost, please remove any mask on dev-python/cryptography and dev-python/pyopenssl (as these are now compatible with the bindist USE flag under Gentoo, with >=dev-libs/openssl-1.0.2o-r6), and also please mask dev-libs/openssl-1.0.2p (as that ...

Migration of gentoo-on-b3 systems to Profile 17.0

I have just completed migrating the gentoo-on-b3 weekly autobuild host to profile 17.0 (as this has recently been stabilized for arm). As recommended , all packages have been rebuilt under the new profile, and, to avoid confusion, a new binhost ...

Hi Andy,

the 17.0 migration has now been done. To upgrade your system, please follow the instructions posted here.

Best, sakaki
