   It's a iso file...here is the command that the script uses to create
the iso image:


 /usr/local/bin/mkisofs -b boot/cdboot -no-emul-boot -c boot/boot.catalog
-r -l -L -V LiveCD -o /usr/LiveCD.iso . >> /usr/local/livecd/log

Do you actually have an ISO-9660 filesystem on the CD, or does it  
contain a BSD label and a UFS filesystem...?

livecd problems - won't mount root

2005-09-15 Thread Midnight Oil



   Hello


   I'm trying to build a web server with FreeBSD 4.11 that runs off of a
CD rather than a hard disk. I'm trying to make an iso using livecd 1.2.4b
and the install goes well, but when I try to boot the system from the iso
I get the mountroot> prompt.

   Here is the fstab file that I put in the live_root install directory
prior to the iso generation:

# DeviceMountpoint  FStype  Options Dump
Pass#
/dev/ad0s1b noneswapsw  0   0
/dev/acd0c  /   cd9660  ro,noatime  0   0
/dev/ad0s1f /tmpufs rw  2   2
/dev/ad0s1e /varufs rw  2   2
proc/proc   procfs  rw  0   0




   I would like the hard drive to be used for logfiles, tmp files, etc.
But, I would like the rest of the system to boot off of the cdrom, and
then keep running off the cdrom image.


   Is there something I am doing wrong?



Thanks,


   - Jamie
