[SOLVED] Unable to boot Arch installer

Hello everyone.
I am no experienced Linux user (I'm just about one year and a half), but I think that dealing with things is the way to learn about them. I'm using Debian and want to switch to Arch.
I have an USB drive, and would like to put the installer (sorry? I'm not sure if that's the correct name. Please excuse me if I am not too concise) on it, without using a CD. I also have an Internet connection through ethernet, and I guess the "installer" will be able to use it to download any needed files.
So, as explained in the wiki and some external guides, I have copied the ISO I downloaded to the USB drive (with dd), just after formatting it as FAT32 with MBR.
I rebooted, with the USB plugged in, entered the BIOS menu and set the USB floppy as the first boot device. Then I exited from BIOS. I saw the LED of my pendrive flicking but no more, the BIOS stayed there (Press ESC to enter BIOS setup menu) and the light always flicking. (I waited about half an hour and nothing happened.)
I have tried it many times, and nothing has changed. I'm now a bit scared: is there anything wrong with my motherboard? Maybe with the filesystem on the external drive? I was wondering if there were any other choices to install Arch from within another Linux distro (Debian "Squeeze" in this case). I know nothing about chroot and other advanced techniques, but (if this helps) I don't want to save anything from my hard drive, i.e., I want a clean install.
Thank you, and, as I said, sorry if this question is very weird, or if I'm missing something important. I'm sure I've looked through many places in the web -too many, I guess; my eyes now hurt me. I'm also not very good at English so, sorry again.
P.S.: I have just tried with a CD-R burning the ISO with Brasero, and it didn't work. The same: freezing. I have UEFI disabled in my BIOS. I'm now wondering what's happening with my computer. It has about five years, and it looks like packed rubbish, but ...

It sounds like you're mixing up the methods for creating the USB install media. You mention formatting with FAT32, that's from the Without overwriting the USB drive method. But you also mention copying the iso with dd, which is from the Overwrite the USB drive method.
You should follow one method or the other from the wiki only, and pay attention to the output for any errors. Then, if things go wrong again, you will be able to provide better detail.

  • [Solved] Unable to boot Arch off SUSE GrUB

    Hi,
    I have several OS installed on my machine. I used to boot everything including Arch but BSD, Solaris & PCBSD with GrUB2 off UbuntuStudio. Earlier today I installed SUSE GrUB on sda and now I am unable to boot Arch. I've used SUSE GrUB earlier and was able to boot Arch off it.
    Here is my menu.lst

    Oh, looking at your setup, it would seem that your system is likely still configured to boot to /dev/sdd (the windows drive).
    As a user with numerous drives, you should be aware that using /dev/sdXY to identify your disks is a bad idea.  There is no gaurantee that Arch will be /dev/sde every time, nor that windows will be /dev/sdd.  You should use either filesystem labels (LABEL= or /dev/disk/by-label) or UUIDs (UUID= or /dev/disk/by-uuid).  Though if you are using GPT, there is also the option of the PARTLABEL as well (which are the labels you create within the partitioner).

  • [Solved] Unable to boot (startup job is running)

    Hi there!
    Today I went home and tried to boot my laptop there, but was unable to boot Arch.
    Before I went home I did a system update using  ' sudo pacman -Syu '  and shut the laptop off normally. Right now I get the following message whilst booting:
    " A startup job is running for dev-disk...25EFDCE0.device"
    It fails after 1 min. 30s and shows a time out error for dependency /mnt/6776F38425EFDCE0, and refuses to boot. I waited for 5 min. but the only thing working at that stage is the shut down button (which appears to enter a normal shutdown mode).
    Grub 2 is functioning; Windows 8 boots up fine (same HDD); though all options to boot arch fail because of the 'startup job error message'.
    Do any of you know how I can fix this, or how to boot/fix arch such that I can attempt to fix it? Based on a search trough this forum it might be an error in FSTAB,  although all cases reported on this forum appear to boot normally after the 'a startup job is running 'error message'.
    Many thanks.

    Thank you for your response.
    Changing the UUID's to /dev/sdaX did not do it's magic, unfortunately. The ' a start job'  message is gone, the boot however gets stuck at
    /dev/sda2 clean .... (beginning of boot)
    Unfortunately I did not properly save the back-up of my fstab file, so the initial set up is lost. Was able to acces arch using alt+f2 and have restored it manually with
    lsblk -f
    It currently looks like this. I did have a line to automount my data partition (/dev/sda4, label: Data), but didn' t know how to restore that one as that line got deleted too.  My gut says this automount was causing the initial error, but it should boot up normally with the current fstab file, right?

  • [SOLVED]Unable to boot eMac with Arch PPC

    Hi everyone,
    I just got into Arch and I realized there was a PPC port, so I decided to see if I could replace Ubuntu on my eMac (USB 2.0) with it.  Unfortunately, I am unable to boot, getting stuck with the loading of the second-stage bootstrap.  What should I be looking for in order to diagnose and conceivably remedy this issue?
    I get the flashing folder with an alternating Mac face and question mark.
    EDIT: Please see the link to the archlinuxppc-user mailing list for the resolution to my issue.    I hope it helps someone else.

    Hi DaNiMoTh,
    Thanks for the reply.  Well, I have just made a post at the mailing list page, so hopefully it will be approved by the moderators soon.  The situation has somewhat changed as I have attempted to reinstall Arch PPC on the eMac since then.  Now I am immediately taken to the second-stage yaboot screen at boot and I have no access to OpenFirmware.  When I use the Live CD to mount the / and /home partitions of /dev/hda, all I see in / is /home and /lost+found, while in /home all I see is /lost+found.  It appears that Arch PPC never actually installed, and I have no idea why.  I guess the files in /mnt were never copied to /.  I'm so confused by all this, but I really desire to understand what is happening and how I can get this computer up and running.  If you have any thoughts at all, please don't hesitate to share.  I'm completely willing to do some reading, but I have not seen reports of a similar situation yet.
    By the way, my eMac is 32-bit.
    Thanks,
    bkadoctaj
    EDIT: I'm not sure how I can get a log for any of this, especially since it appears the install never completed, even though nothing during the install process suggested that was the case.
    EDIT 2: Forget this thread...  The discussion has been continued over at http://groups.google.com/group/archlinu … f4b89ad2ad
    Thank you for the assistance.

  • [SOLVED]Unable to boot from SATA, but it works from USB

    I have strange problem. I made an Arch installation in VMware virtual computer and then I copied the virtual disk to new SSD. When I install the disk into the real hardware (Intel Canoe Creek D2500CC board), i get the "ERROR: Unable to find root device '/dev/sda1'." error.
    The strange thing is, that the computer can boot correctly, when I connect the SSD using SATA->USB bridge.
    In the recovery shell there are no disk devices (/dev/sd*) so I think it is not a problem of changed device name (f.e. /dev/sdb1 instead of /dev/sda1), to me it looks like udev is not running.
    What can be the problem, that the system boots normally when SSD is connected via USB and can not boot when connected directly to SATA port?
    My mkinitcpio.conf:
    # vim:set ft=sh
    # MODULES
    # The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
    # run.  Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
    # in this array.  For instance:
    #     MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
    MODULES=""
    # BINARIES
    # This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
    # wish into the CPIO image.  This is run last, so it may be used to
    # override the actual binaries included by a given hook
    # BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
    BINARIES=""
    # FILES
    # This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
    # as-is and are not parsed in any way.  This is useful for config files.
    FILES=""
    # HOOKS
    # This is the most important setting in this file.  The HOOKS control the
    # modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
    # Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
    # order in which HOOKS are added.  Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
    # help on a given hook.
    # 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
    # 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules
    # 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES
    # Examples:
    ##   This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
    ##   No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.
    #    HOOKS="base"
    ##   This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should
    ##   work as a sane default
    #    HOOKS="base udev autodetect block filesystems"
    ##   This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
    ##   No autodetection is done.
    #    HOOKS="base udev block filesystems"
    ##   This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.
    ##   Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm' for more information on raid devices.
    #    HOOKS="base udev block mdadm encrypt filesystems"
    ##   This setup loads an lvm2 volume group on a usb device.
    #    HOOKS="base udev block lvm2 filesystems"
    ##   NOTE: If you have /usr on a separate partition, you MUST include the
    #    usr, fsck and shutdown hooks.

  • [Solved]Unable to boot /sbin/init does not exist.

    When I boot, I get this message: ERROR: Root device mounted successfully, but /shin/init does not exist. This is an installation that was working fine for me before. I went into Windows to free up disk space, and when I booted Arch later, this is what came up. I have already tried using the live disk as a rescue, but I am unable to chroot into it. I have checked my partitions with a live disk and my files are still there. Is there any way that I can fix this without reinstalling Arch? I have a lot of things that I cannot reinstall right now as I don't have access to the internet currently, and I am using my phone to access the forum.

    My bootloader is Syslinux. Yes, I am able to mount the file systems. The partitions are in ext4 format.  I boot from legacy BIOS, as I have had EFI problems in the past.  arch-chroot gives me this: ==> ERROR: failed to setup API filesystems in chroot /mnt. I should have been clear about what I did in Windows. I was running out of space in Windows, and I had some unallocated disk space, and so I extended my Windows partition.

  • [SOLVED] Unable to boot after update

    After full system upgrade my arch is unable to boot kernel:
    ERROR: device 'UUID=xxx...' not found, skipping fsck.
    ERROR: unable to find root device 'UUID=xxx...'
    You're being dropped to a recovery shell
    I'm pretty sure UUID of /dev/sda2 is correct (double checked with Ubuntu live cd).

    Then you need to provide more information. Bootloader? Kernel? Tried fallback initramfs?
    Edit: OK, you solved it. pacman does regenerate the initramfs if the kernel is updated. It just didn't work for you this time.

  • [SOLVED] Unable to boot after downgrading from 2.6.38 to 2.6.37

    After experiencing some issues with 2.6.38 and my Intel video card (external monitor support). I decided to go back to 2.6.37 for the time being.
    I went into my /var/cache/pacman/pkg and typed in:

    Hopefully I had a 2.6.39rc3-mainline entry in my grub so I selected it and was able to boot as before. I then upgraded from 2.6.37 back to 2.6.38 and guess what... still unable to boot (same message).
    What could be the root cause?
    Thanks

    Finally I got both 2.6.37 and 2.6.38 to boot again but boy it wasn't pretty. Before I start here is what I did before the boot issue.
    - Running     2.6.38.2-1 from [Core]
    - I also have 2.6.39rc3 from [miffe] repo with a dedicated entry in Grub (testing & recovery)
    - Downgraded to 2.6.37 using from /var/cache/pacman/pkg:
    pacman -U kernel26-2.6.37-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz kernel26-headers-2.6.37-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz linux-api-headers-2.6.37-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    - Rebooted
    - Boot would stop early during the process
    - Booted 2.6.39rc3
    - Upgraded to 2.6.38.2-1 via
    pacman -U kernel26-2.6.38.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz kernel26-headers-2.6.38.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz linux-api-headers-2.6.38.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    - Rebooted
    - Boot would stop early during the process
    - Booted 2.6.39rc3
    - Downgraded to 2.6.37 using from /var/cache/pacman/pkg:
    pacman -U kernel26-2.6.37-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz kernel26-headers-2.6.37-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz linux-api-headers-2.6.37-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    - Rebooted
    - Boot would stop early during the process
    - Booted 2.6.39rc3
    - Copied via USB kernel26.img and vmlinuz26 from a friend's PC (running same Arch configuration with 2.6.38 kernel)
    - Rebooted
    - This time, my friend's 2.6.38 would start
    - Upgraded to 2.6.38.2-1 via
    pacman -U kernel26-2.6.38.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz kernel26-headers-2.6.38.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz linux-api-headers-2.6.38.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    - Rebooted
    - This time, my 2.6.38 would start
    - Downgraded to 2.6.37 using from /var/cache/pacman/pkg:
    pacman -U kernel26-2.6.37-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz kernel26-headers-2.6.37-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz linux-api-headers-2.6.37-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    - Rebooted
    - Again I can boot from 2.6.37
    So overall there have been two issues. One when dowgrading from 2.6.38 to 2.6.37 while running 2.6.38 and then when downgrading to 2.6.37 or 2.6.38 while running 2.6.39.
    A bit confusing I admit but I think there is a glitch here that does bad thing when generating kernel26.img

  • [SOLVED] Fail to boot Arch x86_64 live CD on a HP laptop

    Hey, guys, what's up?
    Well, here's the thing: I bought a new laptop a couple days ago and I'm kind of having some trouble. Its a HP Pavilion dm4-1063cl (this model: http://www.notebookcheck.info/HP-Pavili … 579.0.html, just in case).
    I ran some tests in Windows 7 about the architecture of the processor and it clearly seems that it can support arch x86_64 bits. However, I tried to boot Arch x86_64 by a Net Installation CD and it doesn't work. The process fail in the "Loadin UDEV events" phase, something like that. PS: the i686 image boots perfectly.
    Then, I thought that was the CD I burned the reason for trouble - I did not check md5sum and stuff like that. So, I burned another dual image (with boths i686 and x86_64) and tried to run again the 64bits kernel. It did not work in the same phase.
    The only response I get is a dark screen that never seems to go away. It was a panic I've never seen before with Arch Linux.
    The only alternative I can think right now is trying an older version of the live image CD and see what happens, but it doesn't seem like a very good option. Any ideas?
    Hope someone of you can help me. Here in Brazil, most of computers we buy come with Windows installed and we don't have quite a chance of not getting - or paying for - it. I'm sure I'll have such a trouble installing dual boot with Arch Linux, but I really miss my Arch Linux...
    And, damn, I worked too hard to get a new processor. I really dont wanna use Arch i686 on a pc with x86_64 architecture, it seems like an option, but a dumb one. =p
    Cheers,
    Wilson.
    EDIT: It turns out that tt was not a kernel panic as I thought. The kernel changed the resolution of the display during this fase, and somehow it doesent work.
    The trick I used to solve this was adding "nomodeset" to the kernel line in the Live CD booting. Btw, you can do it by selecting the booting option you want in the live CD and pressing TAB. Then, you can edit the kernel line. (:

    HP DM4-1265, Intel Corei5, Intel Graphics.  (Two days old, windoze wiped, Arch installed)
    At boot the brightness is, for some unexplained reason, set all the way down to 0 on these intel based DM4 laptops. A few simple <Fn>+<F3> turns the brightness back up.
    To solve this I had to put this in rc.local -
    echo 6 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
    you can enter it manually to test first (as root). Try to turn your brightness up and down with it to make sure it works.
    My fan ran like crazy too. HP chose to default a BIOS setting that keeps the fan running constantly. I disabled that and all is well. Fan only comes on when needed and lm_sensors shows my temps, right now, at 43C. Ambient is at 77F right now (I'm in Florida) and this kick butt Arch laptop is, in fact, on my lap.....
    Don't give up man.
    First of all: thanks for replying.
    I installed manually the "coretemp" kernel modules and lm-sensors now give some different response. The script "sensors-detect" does not find any answer.
    Looks like the temperature run in a regular level (50º-60º), which I consider a good sign. However, sometimes when I use arch for 24h+, it shuts down suddenly and does not let me boot my computer again - I believe it is a overheating problem. Happened a couple times, big no big deal.
    On the other hand, in Windows 7 I have no trouble at all. The temperature goes around 40º with some daily activities. It worries me out because I used - and I do use - largely and successfully Arch i686 version in crappy notebooks with no heating at all.
    I tried some tweaks in the rc.local, but none of them seemed to really work. With cpufreq, I could slow down the processors and maintain a regular temperature. Looks like I can list some of the fans speed in the /sys/ files, but much of them do not seem to have any change at all. Some of them looks like to have some "max_state" set to low values like 1, but most do have a limit like 10.
    I will keep trying. If there's anything new, I'll post here

  • 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.

    Welcome to Arch.
    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] Unable to boot after a pacman and etc-update

    I updated my machine with pacman following which I started having issues with pacman complaining about unavailable database and stopped working.
    Then thinking it to be the problem with new configuration files, I ran etc-update and merged the pacnew files.
    Now, on restart, I can't boot into the machine. I keep getting the following lines over and over again.
    Starting LXDE Display manager.
    Stopping LXDE Display manager.
    Stopped LXDE Display manager.
    Starting LXDE Display manager.
    Stopping LXDE Display manager.
    Stopped LXDE Display manager.
    Starting LXDE Display manager.
    Stopping LXDE Display manager.
    Stopped LXDE Display manager.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    EDIT: The solution is as below.
    PROBLEM: I was using catalyst drivers for my ATI Radeon card. Lately, the repo was not responding and pacman was not upgrading anything from that repo. So, after an upgrade and merging of pacnew files with etc-update, I was unable to boot. Not sure exactly where from the problem started.
    SOLUTION:
    1. Removed catalyst - Follow all the steps mentioned in the wiki - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AM … stallation. I missed a few and well, I was stuck.  In my case, I had installed using catalyst-generator and hence,  had to remove it using catalyst_build_module remove_all after getting into root.
    2. Install open source driver - Installed the Open source drive with all steps mentioned in the wiki - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ATI#Installation
    3. I had forgotten to follow all the steps correctly while removing catalyst, had not removed "nomodset" from kernel parameters and hence, was not able to boot as well. Don't forget to remove that from grub.

  • [SOLVED] Unable to boot after last upgrade [HP Smart Array]

    Hello guys.
    After last upgrade I'm unable to boot. I have fileserver with 2 discs in HP Smart Array RAID 1.
    While booting, kernel is unable to find my raid (should be cciss) and therefore lvm2 hook fails to find root partition. While going into recovery, I can chroot without an issue, lsmod shows that cciss driver is properly loaded, disk exits in /dev/cciss/, logical group and volumes are detected properly.
    No matter what I do, I just can't get cciss module into kernel. Putting in MODULES in mkinitcpio.conf's MODULES="" didn't help. I'm listing my initramfs images and there is no cciss.ko. I'm also searching for module in my filesystem and can not find it.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thank you for your quick reply.
    DSpider wrote:First of all, have you tried the Fallback entry? Because initramfs-linux-fallback.img is supposed to have a full range of modules.
    Of course, no change.
    DSpider wrote:
    Second, after editing /etc/mkinitcpio.conf you need to regenerate your initramfs.
    # mkinitcpio -p linux
    But the MODULES section needs to have something in there...
    Here's mine:
    MODULES="pata_amd sata_nv ehci-hcd ohci-hcd ext2 ext3 ext4 vfat snd-hda-intel"
    You probably need "mdadm" or "mdadm_udev" in there too, I'm not sure... I don't use RAID, but maybe these will help:
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mk … Using_RAID
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/So … ID_and_LVM
    HP Smart Array is hardware RAID, therefore I don't need mdadm. Right module should be cciss, but this is somehow not working. Adding this into MODULES does not add cciss module to image.
    When I'm booting from Arch install for recovery and chroot, cciss is loaded and my HP Smart Array disk is visible.

  • [SOLVED] Unable to boot ISO on USB

    Hello,
    I'm unable to boot from USB. I have the following error : "Failed to install override security policy: (14) Not Found".
    I tried the following solution : http://superuser.com/a/676059
    But then my computer does not want to boot on the USB. I don't have any option for UEFI on my computer's BIOS (ASUS eeepc). Note that I don't want a dual boot with Windows and there is currently a broken archlinux installation on my hard drive.
    Can anyone help me with this ?
    Thanks. :-)

    Yes, I used :
    dd bs=4M if=/path/to/archlinux.iso of=/dev/sdb && sync
    And for creating the ISO (after copying the file for the workaround) :
    genisoimage -iso-level 4 -o archlinux.iso archlinux
    Mr.Elendig wrote:
    This may be caused by buggy uefi firmware, check if there is a new one for your card.
    Also in some cases it can be caused by fastboot/similar so check for that too in the bios.
    I don't have an option for last boot. I'll check for a new uefi firmware !
    EDIT: How do I check for that ?
    I have an option on the BIOS "Launch EFIT Shell from filesystem" which search for Shellx64.efi on the available filesystem devices. However, it is calle shellx64_v1.efi and shellx64_v2.efi on the archlinux iso. May be this be a problem ?
    Anyway, it's strange, the last time I installed Archlinux this eeepc (more than one year ago...) I didn't had any problem !
