Package: wimtools
Version: 1.11.0-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
While trying to create a WinPE boot image via
mkwinpeimg --waik-dir=/mnt /tmp/foo.img
image creation failed with the following messages:
# mkwinpeimg --waik-dir=/mnt /tmp/foo.img
:: Copying primary boot files from the Windows Automated Installation Kit
(/mnt, X86) [DONE]
:: Extracting boot.wim from "/mnt/WinPE.cab"
[DONE]
:: Making disk image "/tmp/foo.img"
[BUSY]
/usr/lib/syslinux/chain.c32: No such file or directory
[FAIL]
After applying the obvious workaround
ln -sf /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/bios/chain.c32
/usr/lib/syslinux/chain.c32
things worked fine:
# mkwinpeimg --waik-dir=/mnt /tmp/foo.img
:: Copying primary boot files from the Windows Automated Installation Kit
(/mnt, X86) [DONE]
:: Extracting boot.wim from "/mnt/WinPE.cab"
[DONE]
:: Making disk image "/tmp/foo.img"
[DONE]
The image (/tmp/foo.img) is 127905792 bytes.
A fix would probably be to set $syslinuxdir in /usr/bin/mkwinpeimg line 488
appropriately.
I do not know if this bug also exists in upstream wimlib or syslinux.
