Archlinux-2010.05-1-archboot.iso: i586 kernel??

I am trying to fix an Arch i686 installation on a computer via PXE.  I downloaded archlinux-2010.05-1-archboot.iso and made a PXE server for it, but there's two kernel types.  x86_64 and ... i586??  What is happening here?  This is a problem because I can't chroot into my i686 installation!

Here are the md5sums on the media, note that it matches ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/iso/archboot/latest/md5sum.txt
[root@yomomma ~]# md5sum archlinux-2010.05-1-archboot.iso
93fa01d93aade58d8c9f436713fe3ed2 archlinux-2010.05-1-archboot.iso
And checking the md5sums of the iso ...
[root@yomomma ~]# mount -o loop archlinux-2010.05-1-archboot.iso /media/image
[root@yomomma ~]# cd /media/image/isolinux
[root@yomomma isolinux]# md5sum *

    tpowa: Here is a small checklist for grub2 efi implementation in the setup script:
    Note: I have used efi/uefi interchangebly below - referring to both efi 1.x and uefi 2.x in both macs and non-mac systems.
    Check whether the system uses uefi or bios.
    If bios, ask for which bootloader to install
    If uefi, grub2 is the only option.
    Check for the firmware arch. All non-mac uefi systems use x86_64 firmware without exception. Only Intel macs need firmware arch detection.
    I created a workaround for this in the grub.cfg script for the archboot iso. You can use dmesg in archboot booted using efi to find out the firmware arch
    dmesg | grep EFI_ARCH_x86_64 - if true then UEFI x86_64 firmware
    dmesg | grep EFI_ARCH_i386 - if true then UEFI i386 firmware
    or something like
    if [ -d /sys/firmware/efi/ ] || [ -d /proc/efi/ ]
    then
    if [ "$(uname -m)" == "x86_64" ]
    then
    <install grub2-efi-x86_64>
    elif [ "$(uname -m)" == "i686" ]
    then
    <install grub2-efi-i386>
    fi
    else
    <install any bios bootloader>
    fi
    If sure of uefi but unsure of the architecture, go for grub2-efi-x86_64 (even in macs).
    Request the user to convert the system to GPT if MBR is found. I recommend this even for bios installs as GPT is more robust with many features useful even for <2TB disks.
    Since GPT is a part of UEFI spec, I suggest making this compulsory for efi booting and optional for bios booting.. I have not come across uefi systems using MBR disks for booting although the uefi spec makes no such restriction.
    Because of this reason, I propose that archboot should ask the user whether he/she wants to convert the drive to GPT.
    If someone is dualbooting Windows and Linux and wants to use UEFI, then GPT is the only option (Windows restiction) - see http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/lofive … hp/t186440 for instructions on how to convert Windows boot to UEFI-GPT.
    This MBR to GPT can be done using sgdisk (scripting equivalent of gdisk) with out data loss. But systems using LVM and other such stuff (which I do not understand) need to be careful.
    Check whether an efi system partition is present in the system otherwise create one. The order of the partition in the partition table is immaterial. Even in case of Windows dual boot - position of EFISYS part in the table is immaterial.
    EFI SYSTEM PARTITON Requirements:
    Size           - Min 100 MB, Ideal 200 MB
    Filesystem     - FAT32 (FAT16 may also work - not NTFS or HFS or HFS+ or ext2/3/4 or any other file system)
    Partition type - GNU Parted's "boot" flag in GPT disks or EF00 type code in GPT fdisk (aka gdisk) or 0xEF partition type in MBR disks
    Need not be the first partition in the drive/disk
    Should not be in a extended-logical partition in a MBR disk (I have not personally confirmed this - all my disks are GPT) - not to be bother if MBR to GPT conversion is applicable
    Should not be in lvm or any such fancy stuff - partition should be accessible by the (U)EFI firmware
    In UEFI booting, Bios Boot partition (bios_grub in Parted) is not involved - that is used only for BIOS-GPT booting using GRUB2.
    Grub2 or any bios based bootloader previously installed may need to be reinstalled. It is possible to boot linux using grub2-efi and grub2-bios in the same system. Just make sure Bios Boot partition is also installed.
    For a sample partition layout of my system booting both through bios and uefix86_64
    GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.6.11
    Partition table scan:
    MBR: protective
    BSD: not present
    APM: not present
    GPT: present

    Once the EFISYS partition is created, mount it at /boot/efi (standard efisys mountpoint used by Fedora/Redhat since Fedora 12) or at /efi or any other mountpoint.
    Install the grub2-efi into the efisys partition at /boot/efi/EFI/grub2 or to any other dir of your choice.
    Run the grub2_efi_x86_64-install or grub2_efi_i386-install script from grub2-common package with instructions from the post_install scripts of the grub2-efi package(s).
    Create the grub.cfg file similar to the one created for grub2-bios but with "nomodeset add_efi_memmap" kernel options added to each linux menu entry.
    Still something missing will be added to this same post as edits.
    tpowa: I tried to read through the archboot setup script but I didn't understand the many functions that you have used. I think there should be a common grub2 function for GPT conversion and generating grub.cfg, and 1 separate function each for grub2-bios and grub2-efi.
    I also invite other uefi users to add any thing you guys want that is missing in this list. Grub2 upstream devs officially support only UEFI 2.x x86_64 firmware so that rules out many mac users (efi 1.1) and i386 uefi firmware (if theres any one at all).

    You are not able to boot the image or you are not able to boot the system?
    Sorry about the lack of detail and clarity in my last post, I wrote it in a hurry as I was running out the door.  The image booted fine into the x86_64 menu option from a flash drive which was loaded using UNetbootin on Windows.  The system will not boot to the newly installed OS.  It fails very early, usually around CPU initialization, with a hard reset.  I'm going to try Grub 0.97 instead of Grub2 and see if that helps.
    As for my previously mentioned mountpoint problem, during setup->Prepare Hard Drive->Set Filesystem Mountpoints, I get these messages on stderr:
    basename: extra operand '/dev/sdc'
    Try 'basename --help' for more information.
    sed: -e expression #1, char 0: no previous regular expression
    sed: -e expression #1, char 0: no previous regular expression
    sed: -e expression #1, char 0: no previous regular expression
    ...(about 10 of those messages)...
    Before getting a menu listing /dev/loop0 as the only available partition.  After selecting that, I get more of the same messages on stderr and a menu listing /dev/loop[0-7] and /dev/sr0 for partitions.
    I'm guessing that this is because of the quotes around $(finddisks) in findpartitions() on line 524.  Removing them seems to fix things in any case.
    I'll post updates here after I try installing without Grub2.
    *UPDATE*
    I've successfully booted after ditching Grub2 for plain old Grub.  I'm using btrfs for root and home with no problems so far.

    As of now only efi booting of archboot iso works (the official iso does not support efi booting). The setup script does not yet support efi bootloader installation, you have to do it manually - see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 44#p837644 .

    This is an official archboot release, archboot has nothing to do with official install media.
    See here:
    ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/iso/archboot/Readme.txt
    I'm collecting here actual bug reports and success stories of archboot isos.
    At the moment i know of 3 potential bugs in the current archboot scripts.
    which will be fixed in next iso rebuild which will happen not too soon in order to save bandwith.
    Perhaps i'll post a xdelta file when it's fixed.
    1. nouveau module is not loading due to missing kernel modules.
       (not a real show stopper nouveau is experimental anyway at the moment)
    2. In vmware it seems that hdparm cannot calculate correctly block devices.
       (affected is autoprepare feature here)
    3. You have issue with keymap loading. which i cannot reproduce in kvm at all.
    Are you doing any fancy stuff before changing keymap?

  • ASM1061 (SATA chip) --- archlinux-2013.07.01-dual.iso fails to boot

    archlinux-2013.07.01-dual.iso hangs on boot if ANY SATA device (even just an optical drive) is connected to the ports of this chip (ASM1061) on my motherboard.
    Arch installations, which do not comment out following line in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules and rebuild initramfs also hang on boot:
    # ATA/ATAPI devices (SPC-3 or later) using the "scsi" subsystem
    #KERNEL=="sd*[!0-9]|sr*", ENV{ID_SERIAL}!="?*", SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", ATTRS{type}=="5", ATTRS{scsi_level}=="[6-9]*", IMPORT{program}="ata_id --export $devnode"
    I'd like to be able to boot an arch install medium, without removing the SATA connectors from my board's ASM1061 (Remastering official install live iso --- how to create initrd?).
    Edit: Debian's and Fedora's install media are booting fine when devices are connected to the ASM1061, Ubuntu's install medium fails to boot --- like Arch
    Edit: I do not know if this is relevant: The motherboard has UEFI.
    Update: It is possible to alter the arch install live iso to make it boot (Remastering official install live iso --- how to create initrd?).

    I have some usability feedback as well:
    Under the "Configure System" step, there's both a entry called "Pacman-Mirror" and one called "/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist".
    When I click on "Pacman-Mirror", I get asked if I would would like to use the same mirror as i used for the FTP install. As the mirror I wanted to use wasn't in the mirrorlist earlier, I select no to this question. Instead of getting back to the Configuration menu, I am now asked to select a mirror from the list. I manually go through from top to bottom and select the best mirror, even though that's not the mirror I would like to use. I'm now back at the Configuration menu, and see that the next entry is called "/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist". I click on it, removes the first three lines (from the setup entry), search for my country and uncomment the mirror I want.
    I suggest to change the above behaviour, by merging "Pacman-Mirror" and "/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist" into one entry (probably just called "/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist" to make it fit nicely in the list). When clicking on that entry, you'll get the question if you want to use the mirror from the install. If you click yes, the lines are added to the mirrorlist and the file gets opened with the editor. If you click no, the mirrorlist is opened with the editor immediately.
    This would make it much more intuitive IMHO

  • Why does my mid-2010 macbook pro keep restarting? Kernel panic?

    Please help,
    I work solely on my mid-2010 macbook pro. Lately it has been restarting itself more frequently. I should take it in, but it's hard to be without it for any extended period of time. I was hoping someone could take a look at my crash report and make sense of it?

    You have the MacBookPro6,2, the Edsel of Macs. You might be able to resolve the problem by reinstalling OS X. Try that first, if you haven't done so already. Otherwise, you may be covered by this program:
    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010): Intermittent black screen or loss of video
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. The routine hardware diagnostics used by service providers may not detect the fault. There is a specific test for this issue.
    Print the first page of the panic report and bring it with you.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
    You may be able to stop the panics by disabling automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saver preference pane, but that's not a solution.

  • [SOLVED] Use ISO for kernel upgrade?

    Wondering if I can use the new ISO to upgrade my kernel, if so maybe a hint or two on how.
    See, it's the wifi thing.
    It's my only connection to the internet and my Atheros chipset wasn't supported by madwifi 4 weeks ago when I did my install (so I used ndiswrapper). It was however supported in development (I didn't know about madwifi-svn or anything-svn at the time). I'm hoping maybe I can use the new ISO to do the upgrade and maybe the madwifi on the ISO will also work and I can do all of this before internet withdrawals kick in. I do have Puppylinux on a usb and the wifi works with that, so if I desperately need a fix (a quick google search and... aaahhh) there is that.
    If this won't work then what?
    I just looked at the pacman man page and didn't see any way to download but not install a package (unless I missed it, if I did just say so, I'll look until I find it). All I can think of is find the drivers for my ethernet card (really surprised that wasn't supported out of the box) go to the library and hopefully get everything done before they close (I'm a noob, it takes me an hour to find my ass with both hands).

  • ArchLinux @ 2010 Southeast Linuxfest

    Howdy.   I'm the speaker coordinator for SELF.   I'm willing to cover booth expenses for ArchLinux to have a booth if somebody will do the necessary work to man the booth.   Any takers?    It'd be nice to have a booth by somebody other than Red Hat, Fedora, SuSe, and Ubuntu.    (Not that there's anything wrong with those distros )

    If I had any way of getting there I would love to, but as of now I can't afford to go to SC. Next year I'll do it though (I'm only a few hours away)!

  • How to install archlinux from pendrive/usb?

    I downloaded archlinux-2010.05-core-i686.iso.
    I unmounted the pendrive.
    Would i format the pendrive with ext3/ext4 or fat32 or fat16 format?
    After that i would do dd if=archlinux-2010.05-core-i686.iso of=/dev/sda
    If i use unetbootin, should i format the pendrive with ext3/ext4 or fat32 or fat16 format?
    Has anyone used unetbootin to install archlinux from pendrive/usb?

    jasonwryan wrote:I'm pretty sure all of your questions are answered on the wiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … lash_drive
    I did:

    But after setting bios boot option to usb and reboot,it's not booting from usb.
    What's the problem?
    I get the normal grub menu.

  • [SOLVED] Trying to install Arch Linux from harddisk using /dev/sda2

    Hi
    I'm trying to install Arch using my swap partition, following this wiki entry: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ha … stallation
    What I've done:
    Downloaded ISO: archlinux-2010.05-netinstall-i686.iso
    Command: swapoff /dev/sda2
    Command: fdisk /dev/sda and changed the system type to 83 (Linux) on /dev/sda2
    Now it looks like:
    Command (m for help): p
    Disk /dev/sda: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes

    /dev/sda4 105579180 488392064 191406442+ 83 Linux
    It complained about device was busy, but it still seemed to have changed the system type, so I did partprobe as it wrote.
    WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 16: Device or resource busy.
    The kernel still uses the old table. The new table will be used at
    the next reboot or after you run partprobe(8) or kpartx(8)
    Syncing disks.
    [root@swamp ~]# partprobe
    <no output>
    Next I did:
    [root@swamp ~]# dd if=archlinux-2010.05-netinstall-i686.iso of=/dev/sda2
    327680+0 records in

    And unmounted it again.
    The wiki page says to type: fsck -f /dev/sda2fsck, but I get no such file while trying to open sda2fsck.
    [root@swamp ~]# fsck -f /dev/sda2fsck
    fsck from util-linux-ng 2.18
    e2fsck 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
    fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sda2fsck
    The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
    filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
    filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
    is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
    e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
    Can I ignore the above and continue modifying grub?
    Thanks :-)
    Last edited by valvet (2010-11-08 14:49:07)

    fsck -f /dev/sda2fsck makes no sense because /dev/sda2fsck is not a deivce. If the wiki says that, then it is wrong. It's only doing a fsck anyway so probably not really needed. If you are just formatting th swap partition then use, mkfs.ext{234}.
    edit:
    from the wiki
    # fsck -f /dev/sda2fsck 1.40.8 (13-Mar-2008)
    e2fsck 1.40.8 (13-Mar-2008)

    The first like should just be
    # fsck -f /dev/sda2
