[Bug 276822] Re: busybox with (initramfs) / boot: / kernel not found
This bug report has lost its focus entirely. I believe the original issue, that the casper-rw persistence file did not have a proper ext3 filesystem, has been indirectly fixed with other changes to the main install routine.

I downloaded the daily-build on Apri 20th 2009 it came with new files associated with casper lupin-casper ubiquity-casper and of course casper. The stick created worked, I dont know if there are other files needed but you might try sudo apt-get lupin-casper ubiquity-casper casper and see if it works with those updates, it sure would be easier than getting another daily build.

[Bug 276822] Re: busybox with (initramfs) / boot: / kernel not found
I'm having this problem with Jaunty RC - I get a prompt that says initramfs. I thought it might be related to my hard drive partitions using encrypted LUKS over LVM, so I removed the hard drive but still had the same problem. Once I hit enter a couple times at the initramfs prompt and got past the problem to a boot screen but that was with Ubuntu 9.04 beta. This is really important to me. I want to distribute memory sticks equiped with pre-setup voip clients, vpns and encrypted email for friends. I also need to get the exact list of packages to pin/hold which will not be upgradable on a memory stick environment - ie Kernel, libc6?

I've attached a casper log. I forgot to capture the output of dmesg, but I did run dmesg and visually inspected it. It seemed to report corruption in an ext3 filesystem. This could have been my /boot partition, but I think it unlikely. Again I did encrypt the entire root partition as an option of the alternate install of Ubuntu 8.04.

I didn't have to add rootdelay when i made my first stick, it was after a update around Apr 3rd that this occurred. not having a workaround until a fix can be made is not good either, if the person working to fix this knows the area to look perhaps a fix will come sooner.

agreed a newer intrepid iso worked fine.

[Bug 276822] Re: busybox with (initramfs)
I was following these instructions: http://www.ubuntumini.com/2008/10/installing-ubuntu-on-dell-inspiron- mini.html in order to throw 8.10 beta on a new Mini9. I pulled off a 8.10 beta iso earlier today and installed into a VM on another box. Using usb-creator 0.1.9 to throw the iso onto a 1gb thumb gave me a bootable stick. Unfortunately, about a third of the way through the installation I was getting dropped into busybox and unable to proceed. Interestingly, I repeated the procedure with UNetBootin and got the same result. Both applications were able to get me into a Hardy install on the Mini9 without issue. Following the second manual liveUSB option from this article: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/10/15/ubuntu-810-persistent-flash- drive-install-from-live-cd/ got me up and running on 8.10 (using the same iso as above) without issue. I'm just guessing but I suspect that the 8.10 livecd is doing something that doesn't behave when slapped on a thumbdrive having a capacity less than 2gb. I'd be curious to know if those who had encountered the busybox issue were using smaller capacity thumbdrives. -- busybox with (initramfs) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276822 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 276822] Re: busybox with (initramfs)
Booting from 8.10 Beta and using usb-creator to make 8.04.1 start up disk again get BusyBox, (initramfs). Scrolling was too fast to see much during debug, however the last line before BusyBox was: ( 57.847326) EXT3-fs: Unrecognized mount option mode=755 or missing value. I recall removing mode=755 from scripts/casper allows a flash drive created using liveusb to boot in persistence mode.

Will give install with 8.04.1 another shot today, with 8.10.1 Beta both Ubuntu and Xubuntu are working fine.

[Bug 276822] Re: busybox with (initramfs)
I have confirmed this. I get the same result every time when running usb-creator 0.1.7 on Intrepid to create a bootable Ubuntu 8.04.1 LTS usb stick. I've tried creating both with and without allocating reserved extra space. The system starts too boot and then, within a few seconds, I'm stuck at an (initramfs) prompt. It appears to be a busy box prompt. I'm going to try creating an intrepid beta boot disk to see if the same problems happen. -- busybox with (initramfs) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276822 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I will, but in the meantime I tested it with Intrepid Beta cdimage and it booted just fine, so it may be that this problem is limited to 8.04.1 -- busybox with (initramfs) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276822 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
