Can't boot installation media, hangs on archiso.img

So I have a crappy old laptop that I'm trying to use as a server machine. I have Ubuntu Server installed on it, but I want to experiment a bit, and shift to Arch. Problem is, I get to the selection screen, and it automatically selections option 1 with a 0.5 second pause, and then it goes:
Loading /arch/boot/i686/vmlinuz.......
Loading /arch/boot/i686/archiso.img........ Aborted
Lz...........: (about 124 times, literally)
The machine is a dodgy one that has a cheapie brand, but it's running a Pentium M 755 (which is Dothan, and is i686 compatible), so it at least supports that. Any ideas what could be going wrong? I burned the dual-architecture (even though this is x86 only) disc onto a CD, and it's the core edition (I figured maximum compatibility). My earlier CD that was x86 net install had exactly the same issue.
Any ideas what could be going wrong? Just as a note, this machine won't boot from USB, AFAIK, so I'll burn a maximum of another 2 CDs before giving up, as they aren't my CDs.
Thanks in advance.

I somehow managed to get it to work, by repeatedly exiting to the bootloader and attempting to get option 1 again, which was difficult considering it kept automatically trying to power off. Fortunately, neither Ubuntu or Arch seem to know how to physically turn the device off. I have no idea what just happened, but it DID work, so...
I'll leave this as 'unsolved' for a while in case someone has a PROPER solution, other than mash'n'pray.

Can't boot installation cd on my Macbook pro 8.1

Hi everybody,
I am trying to install archlinux for dualboot with os x. The problem is that no matter what I do I just can't boot the installation CD. First I come to the normal screen where I can choose to boot archlinux, boot existing os, do memtest etc. If I choose boot archlinux I get an output similar to this: (I am trying to copy the text by hand from my macbook to another computer)

And I get the same result no matter what i do. I have tried it on two different harddrives (both newly formatted and with a fresh install of OS X 10.6.6 fully updated), with or without premade partitions of many different kinds. I have made like 5 different cd:s and dvd:s and I now that at least one of them have worked on another macbook of the same model.
Please could someone help me because I have no idea what I possibly can be doing wrong.

had the same problem today.
My observations are:
1) I tried that with brand new mac pro 8.1 - OSX just as I got it from apple. All worked, arch boot up and I was able to begin installation. eth0 worked as well.
2) I tried it again few days later and got the same problem as you described/pasted. meanwhile I downloaded upgrade from apple - I guess that is what causes the problem. Basicly cd is not detected at all, so /dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201108 obviously is not there.
Anyway the solution to this was quite easy - sice in initramfs you can detect usb keys:
1) Copy all the files from your arch-install cd to some usb key (just cp. no need to format/dd etc)
2) try to boot from the cd like before untill you arrive at ramfs
3) plug your usb key and hope it will get detected
4) then do
ln -s /dev/<usb key> /dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201108
5) logout (exit)
and you have your arch booting
Ho
I'm ok with that procedure.
But now i'm on archlinux installer, how to make an proper installation of grub, that work?
Because all of the things I tried didn't worked.
Thanks !

Boot Installation media from USB flash/Pen Drive?

Hi there,
The hardrive on my X60 died. Died so badly that even Resue and Recovery wouldn't start yet alone Windows (even in safe mode).
I have a new hard drive and installation media en route from Lenovo (laptop was under warranty)
The problem is that the installation media is on CD/DVD and my laptop does not have an optical drive.
So my questions are:
1. Can the installation media be installed from a USB Pen/Flash drive? (the BIOS does support USB booting)
2. Does anyone have experience of this or instructions?
On a side note I find it slightly irritating that even under warranty Lenovo won't supply me software/hardware that will return my laptop to its original state without the user, me, potentially having to buy an external optical drive. The warranty support chap said "you'll just need to buy an external USB optical drive" - *sighs*
Cheers
Lawrence

Tnx 4 ur reply RX-8.
I bought the lappie used. It had BIOS ver. 103 when I bought it, so I upgraded to ver. 111 and it kept on booting from pen drives just fine.
A few days after I bought it, the internal HDD failed with S.M.A.R.T. ID 5, something about reallocated sectors count. I got an exact replacement for the dead HDD. When I installed it, I unplugged the lappie's battery, then plugged the battery back in before I buttoned it all up. I think THAT was the start of my USB flash pen drive boot problem.
The new HDD is fine. It passes the HGST Drive Fitness Test with long SMART test, which takes between 2 and 3 hours.
I tried the EC update. Inside the zip file was a TXT file with a link to an MSI page that has a PDF file on how to do the EC update. I had that PDF open on another machine when I did the EC update so I could follow the instructions exactly.
After an F9 on the UEFI screen to restore defaults and an F10 to save the UEFI config, I rebooted and everything seemed OK. I then used a pin to force a reset. For the second time, I unplugged the lappie and waited a few minutes for the EC memory to clear.
I still have the same problem. I can't boot from a USB flash pen drive.
I'm enclosing shots of my USB config with XHCI enabled and disabled. I tried to boot from a pen drive with both XHCI settings. No joy. Will I ever be able to boot from a USB flash pen drive again?
I should also mention that I have a portable HDD with a USB 3 interface that boots just fine on other machines but won't boot on the GS60 Ghost. The LED on the portable HDD comes on and the lappie screen just sits there with a blinking underscore cursor.

10.6.6 update - can't boot, installation OS from DVD fails

hi all,
I have updated to 10.6.6 yesterday and since then I can't boot my MBPro. It freezes at the initial grey screen with Apple logo and "loading" wheel spinning (initially an installation progress bar appears, but vanishes after a while).
I tried reinstalling Snow Leopard from DVD, but it fails "The content of this disk can't be changed. Mac OS X couldn't be installed on this disk." I tried verifying / repairing the hard drive using the Disk Utility, but here I also get an error: "Disk utility can't repair this disk..disk, and restore you backed-up files".
I ran the Disk Utility verification of my HD about a week ago, all worked OK then.
Any ideas how I can get to my hard drive?

Preiere Pro 2 Mac damaged installation media

I have a valid license key for the Mac version of Premiere Pro 2 but my installation media 'exploded' in the drive. Therefore I have a valid key but nothing to use it with. Adobe are no help and tell me they don;t have older versions to download (apparently it's because I bought a boxed version, if I'd bought a download they might be able to help even though they have no copies of any old versions anywhere in their organisation - which is why they can't help me.) and I will therefore have to buy the new version. WHAT?? This is very expensive software and I don't need the latest & greatest. What I have suits me fine. Can anybody point me in the direction of an installation image or trial version download (if that'd work??) so that I can use the software I paid for?
When you pay so much for software I expect better customer service. What makes me really mad though is that all the people who have no morals about software piracy just take the latest version for nothing whereas those of us who try to do things the right way still end up getting shafted by Adobe. What if my installation media hadn't failed quite so dramatically but had just simply deteriorated over time and subsequently failed? These things happen. I thought I bought a license, not a physical disc. You know for sure that if I had a physical disc but no license key they'd be telling me the key was the important part and that effectively that was what I bought. Makes me so tempted to just join the no morals gang and take their software for nothing but my principles prevent me from doing so.
Damn principles!
Anyway, if anybody can help with installation media for Premiere Pro 2 for Mac I'd be grateful. I'm not looking for anything dubious, I have the license, I just need the installer to attach it to.
Thanks.

That would explain why I can't find a download for the installer, but not why Adobe support didn't tell me that, even when provided with the license key. I assure you there is nothing 'bootleg' about this and if you're right, then the info I've been given about the product one of my tech team was trying to install is duff. I would hope Adobe can tell me what the license is actually for and then I might be able to make some progress. Maybe it was premier, not premier pro?
I guess the next step is to go back to adobe and ask them what product the key is for. If it turns out to be Premier, judging by their earlier attitude it's not going to make a lot of difference... Thanks for the heads up though.

Can't boot from windows 7 usb installation media

When trying to boot from windows 7 usb installation media no efi boot option availiable. Using "boot from efi file" option whith each and every .efi file on installation media results in a message saying "The selected boot device failed. Press <Enter> to Continue".
USB installation media created using original windows 7 iso image and couple diskpart commands(resulting in clean flash storage with a single active primary partition) plus simple copying of the iso image's contents on usb flash.
Enabling/Disabling SecureBoot doesn't have any impact whatsoever.
Installation boots from aforementioned media successfully when CSM enabled, though i would really prefer installing Windows 7 in uefi mode. Which microsoft claims Windows 7 supports.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
PS: my disappointment in this particular HP notebook is unspeakable. Aside from issue of the current topic, It keeps defaulting to windows boot manager when dual-booting windows & linux no matter what i do, and windows 8.1 Pro is constantly BSODing whenever i try to run fullscreen games on high-performance GPU whith every graphics driver i could possibly install (including both hp's own and amd's). Found silly workarounds for both of these issues, however still hate HP treating it's customers that way.

Booting from USB 2.0 port or DVD with SecureBoot disabled gets me to a screen saying "starting windows", just before the actual setup begins and then system simply hangs. Still unable to install. Thanks for your suggestion though.

Can't boot arch installation media with nvidia 9600GT – nouveau error

Hello!
I recently tried Arch Linux and was very pleased with the performance and distro philosophy. I've managed to install it on my laptop following the beginners guide. Though, today I tried the same thing on my desktop computer and can't even reach the installation command line. This desktop have a nvidia 9600GT graphics card installed.
I leave my process here for better understanding:
Boot computer with installation media (I'm using the archlinux-2013.08.01-dual.iso);
Select Boot Arch Linux (x86_64) option from the menu;
Kernel starts to boot and then it gives me the following right after the Triggering uevents message:
nouveau E[ PFIFO][0000:02:00.0] DMA_PUSHER - ch 1 [DRM] get 0x000000000 put 0x0000000000 ib_get 0x00000000 ib_put 0x00000001 state 0xa0000000 (err: IB_EMPTY) push 0x00406040
the boot process freezes and I have to manually shutdown the computer.
Just to be sure, I tried the same installation media on a different computer and it boots normally.
I'm thinking of swaping the graphics card temporarily just for the initial installation. After that I could install the nvidia drivers and connect this graphic card back on. But sadly I'm one graphics card short.
Can you help me?
Thank you in advance.

Try editing the kernel command line and adding nomodeset. This should force the OS to fall back to an alternative because nouveau requires modesetting, if I remember correctly.
Wow! That solved it! Thank you.

[SOLVED]Hanging after booting from installation media

Yesterday I booted from a rw-DVD got to the terminal and could execute commands, connect to the internet and use elink etc no problem. I didn't go through with installation as I wanted to read up more on partitioning my drives for dual booting before actually doing so.
Trying the same thing today, and it hangs soon after I boot, regardless of whether I do anything. Printing the following:
nouveau E[ DRM] failed to idle channel 0xcccc0000 [DRM]
pci_pm_runtime_suspend(): nouveau_pmops_runtime_suspend+0x0/0xf0 [nouveau] returns -16
INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: { 6} (detected by 1, t=18002 jiffiess, g=974, c=973, q=604)
This is without me typing anything. If I try to execute a command quickly after booting it sometimes works, but after a couple of minutes it will complain of a soft lockup.
I've tried burning another disk, and using a USB installation media, but the same thing happens. Any thoughts?
Edit: Trying to run it on a laptop with i7-4700MQ, 16GB ram, and Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M
Second Edit: Booted with nomodeset, which worked and allowed me to install. Just trying to sort out the sodding boot loaders now...

Welcome to the forum.
First of all, you should get in the habit of using [ code ] tags when posting code, not [ quote ] tags (well, unless you want to apply some styling to it, like bold, italic, etc).
This is wrong:
# umount /dev/sdc
This is correct:
# umount /dev/sdc1
You were trying to unmount the drive as a whole, which obviously isn't mounted, instead of the first (and probably only) partition. Had you followed the advice from the note to use blkid and check if it's mounted, this wouldn't have happened. But the fact that a DVD produced that error puzzles me... I have no experience with UEFI, but I think you need to press F10, F11, or something like that, to able able to get to a UEFI boot menu, and choose the optical unit as source.
I hope you used a BitTorrent client when downloading the ISO, and not some direct link (which are prone to CRC errors). If you used a direct link, then check the MD5 and make sure that it matches the one from the Download page. For future reference, torrents are checked while they're being downloaded.

Can't Boot OS X Install DVD off Any Media but Boots Properly Installed OS X

Hey all,
Been really puzzled after this problem. Basically I can boot into OS X Snow Leopard if it's properly installed on a Hard Drive. I've booted externally and internally.
I wanted to do a fresh installation on a new SSD drive I just got however I found that my Mac will not boot up a Snow Leopard Installation DVD both from an External Hard Drive and from the Official DVD.
I ran a verbose and here's where it hangs:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/7601546@N08/4881237682/
It hangs at the same spot for all of my installation media, yet it boots fine into an OS X installed drive.
I have done the following:
Reset the PMU/SMC
Reset PRAM
Hoping that someone else has run into this issue.

FYI
I fixed the problem... well there was no problem... the problem was me not knowing.
Apparently, you can't install a version of OS X older than your Mac. I had to use the drop-in DVD to successfully have the Mac boot. I hope someone else finds this if they run into this issue as well.

13" late 2011 MacBook Pro has frozen after Yosemite installation. I can, however, boot from a clone of my MacBook Air that is on an external drive. Despite the fact that I can boot from the external, could it be the RAM that's the prob

My daughter's 13" late 2011 MacBook Pro has frozen (null sign displays) after Yosemite installation. I can, however, boot from a clone of my MacBook Air that is on an external drive. I reinstalled Yosemite on the MBP HD, but it still hangs in mid install. Despite the fact that I can boot from the external, could it be the RAM that's the problem? I'd happily put 8 GB in if it seems probable that would solve the problem. I've tried all the suggested procedures that I've seen posted here. Disk Utility, and my older version of DiskWarrior indicate the HD is OK. I have DiskWarrior 5 on order.

Boot the MBP with the OPTION key down. If successful, you should see two HDD icons, Select the recovery partition (on the right).
From the 4 option menu select Disk Utility.
Run Disk Utility>First Aid, Verify and Repair.
If the disk cannot be repaired, it will have to be replaced.
Ciao.

How can I create a non-EFI USB installation media

Hi fellows,
I usually create a non-EFI installation CD via this procedure
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Un … ical_Media
But now my optical drive is broken, so I need to create an USB non-EFI installation media.
How can I do ???

Hello nTia89,
I'm in a similar situation to yours. I have an ancient MacBook Pro (1,1) with a broken optical drive, and any attempts to get EFI boot working with Linux have resulted in no graphics.
My solution has been to first install Mac OS X via USB, then install Refind. After that, Refind will recognise Arch USB media during boot and you can install.
I'm only booting Linux, so my solution has been to use MBR on the hard drive. That forces the machine to use the BIOS compatability mode.
Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions!

click disable all button
click on the SERVICES tab at the top
at the bottom click checkmark in "hide all microsoft services"
again write down what is or isnt checked(smallest option)
click DISABLE ALL button
restart PC
when you boot up you get a popup saying you ahve used the MS config utility, place check mark in box and click OK
next open the internet and download
Windows Installer CleanUp Utilityinstall program and run it, in the list find anything blackberry, roxio, research in motion, or installer related. remove them
next we are going to perform a clean uninstall of DTM
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB02206&sliceId=1&docTy...
anywhere in the DOC, if it tells you to delete research in motion, also delete roxio if you see it.
then you can go back to MSCONFIG and put your startup and services back to the way they were
then get the latest desktop manager 5.0, if you dont plan on using media manager, dont install it, its a resource hog

[Solved] Can't boot new arch64 installation

I'm trying to give arch64 a go, I've installed it but I can't boot it.
I used the ftp install CD and went about the installation as though I would with arch32. Everything seem to install but on booting grub loaded the kernel and
Decompressing Linux...
Booting kernel...
is output to the screen then this single line is output:
kernel direct mapping tables up to 100000000 @ 8000 - 8000
and then it hangs. I then tried the install according to the arch64 installation page on the wiki, but used the ftp install iso as the 'host' rather than ubuntu or gentoo. No difference.
The machine is an AMD Athlon 64 2800; socket 754; newcastle core.
In fact full hardware specs are here, its the first machine listed.
I can boot the system using the kernel on the install CD, but I can't do much with it because the modules won't load, I expect because of the kernel on the CD is a different version to the one installed on the hdd.
How can I fix it?

APIC needed enabling in BIOS

[SOLVED] USB Installation Media Boot Problems

Hi all,
I'm having trouble creating a live USB stick that my new (to me) HP Elitebook
2730p laptop can boot successfully. Here is what I've tried so far:
1. dd with the latest stable Arch installation media
In other words:
# dd if=/path/to/archlinux*.iso of=/dev/sdb
Result: I can boot with the USB stick on my old Dell laptop (which is running
Arch) without issue, but can't with the new HP. The BIOS will freeze if the USB
stick is inserted, and will only unfreeze after I remove it.
2. dd with a recent Arch installation media snapshot
The snapshot is ``archlinux-2012.06.05_04-00-01-core-x86_64.iso''. I
install the image to the USB stick with the same dd method above,
and I get the same behavior: works fine on the old Dell, but freezes the BIOS of
the new HP.
3. dd with an old lubuntu iso
This time, I used an old lubuntu iso
(lubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64.iso) with dd. This method
worked without a problem -- both my old Dell and my new HP would boot it without
complaint.
3. unetbootin with the latest stable Arch installation media
Creating the USB stick with unetbootin allows me to boot the stick with the new
HP, but the boot fails to the ramfs prompt after ``Waiting 30 seconds for device
/dev/disk/by-label/ ...'' (notice how there's nothing after ``by-label/'').
Adding ``vmalloc=448M'' to the end of the unetbootin boot entry makes no
difference.
4. Image Writer for Windows
The ``USB Installation Media'' wiki page suggests using ``Image Writer for
Windows'' to create a bootable USB stick. I tried this method using Windows 7
Professional, and the result was the same as attempts 1 and 2: the USB stick
freezes the HP's BIOS.
Other notes
I've checked the md5sums of all the isos I've tried
I've updated the BIOS on the HP laptop
I've used the same USB stick for each of the above situations
The new HP laptop does not have an optical drive, and I don't own an
external one
In attempts 1, 2, and 4, I noticed that cfdisk shows that the partition
that contains the installation files has both the ``Bootable'' and ``NC'' flags
set. The cfdisk man page says that the latter flag stands for ``Not Compatible
with DOS or OS/2''. I can actually remove this flag by using the ``Maximize''
option in cfdisk, which actually makes the USB stick bootable by the HP
computer's BIOS, but the boot eventually fails to the ``ramfs prompt
thingy'' after saying ``ERROR: '/dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201108' found, but the
filesystem type is unknown''
In attempt 3 (the lubuntu one), I noticed that cfdisk shows a bit of free
space in front of the partition that contains the lubuntu files. The ``NC'' flag
is not present when I run cdisk.
My current theory is this: I believe my new HP's BIOS is unhappy with the
``isohybrid-nature'' of the Arch installation media. Is there any way I can
confirm this, or obtain ``non-isohybrid'' Arch media?
As you might imagine, this has been pretty frustrating. Any help would be
greatly appreciated!
Daniel

Duh. That's for booting it from RAM (with MEMDISK) in case it doesn't map the entire file, which for some reason it didn't for the i686 iso on my computer. I probably should've specified it when I wrote the article. I'll add it tomorrow morning.
Speaking of which, have you tried it?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/US … O_from_RAM
Because you only seem to be using dd ("Image Writer" is the same) and Unetbootin (which had various problems since forever). The correct syntax for dd is:
$ sudo dd if=archlinux.iso of=/dev/sd[x]
Warning: Make sure to use /dev/sdx and NOT /dev/sdx1. This is a very common error!
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/US … _USB_drive
Haven't tried the ``Boot the entire ISO from RAM'' method yet. I'll give that a shot next.
The ``Boot the entire ISO from RAM'' method worked like a charm! Thanks,

Boot 2011.08.19 installation media from grub2 via loopback

I have been trying to get the new installation media to boot from grub2 using loopback. The kernel and ramdisk load fine but it fails when it gets to the loopback mounting hook. I receive the following error message:
::Setup a loop device from iso/archlinux-2011.08.19-core-dual.iso located at device /dev/disk/by-label/MULTIBOOT
losetup: /dev/loop0: No suck file or directory
It then tries booting of of a CD, fails, and throws me to the minimal shell.
Has anyone gotten loopback booting of the install media working?
My grub2 entries are:

You are welcome.
Oh, but in your case you also need to remaster iso. (I was think when I test these things directly with qemu, passing arguments -kernel/-initrd/-append )
mkdir -p /tmp/archlinux/{mnt,iso}
mount /path/to/your/archlinux-2011.08.19-core-dual.iso /tmp/archlinux/mnt
cp -a /tmp/archlinux/mnt/* /tmp/archlinux/iso
umount /tmp/archlinux/mnt
Now repack initramfs in /tmp/archlinux/iso/arch/boot/{i686,x86_64}/archiso.img
