I would love to be able to build the official 12.3 images without using qemu :( Good news for Marcus. Nothing wrong with kiwi apparently. ;)
Hi, unfortunately the problem also occurs on native build, so it is not a qemu problem but a kiwi problem. I've debugged it further. the issue is that apparently kiwi does some kpartx -a magic, and then later reads through /dev/mapper/* to find out about the mappings (that it just created itself). For reasons that I don't understand, the /dev inside the build chroot does not get any files inside /dev/mapper/*. (it seems to be a local mount with only very few files in it. not the same /dev that you get via mounting devtmpfs or --bind mounting the /dev from outside the chroot). so, the issue is that kiwi never finds the /dev/mapper/* output, doesn't try any other method (like kpartx -l or dmsetup), and then hangs in an endless loop. Marcus, any idea how to solve this? Thanks, Dirk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
