Hi all,

I'm trying to modify the oVirt NGN image (to add RPMs, since imgbased 
rpmpersistence currently seems to have a bug: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1528468 ) but I'm unfortunately 
stuck at the very beginning: it seems that I'm unable to recreate even the 
standard 4.1 squashfs image.

I'm following the instructions at 
https://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-node-ng.git;a=blob;f=README 

I'm working inside a CentOS7 fully-updated vm (hosted inside VMware, with 
nested virtualization enabled).

I'm trying to work on the 4.1 branch, so I issued a:

./autogen.sh 
--with-ovirt-release-rpm-url=http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release41.rpm

And after that I'm stuck in the "make squashfs" step: it never ends (keeps 
printing dots forever with no errors/warnings in log messages nor any apparent 
activity on the virtual disk image).

Invoking it in debug mode and connecting to the VNC console shows the detailed 
Plymouth startup listing stuck (latest messages displayed: "Starting udev Wait 
for Complete Device Initialization..." and "Starting Device-Mapper Multipath 
Device Controller...")

I wonder if it's actually supposed to be run only from a recent Fedora (the 
"dnf" reference seems a good indicator): if so, which version?

I kindly ask for advice: has anyone succeeded in modifying/reproducing NGN 
squash images recently? If so, how? :-)

Many thanks in advance,

Giuseppe
