[opensuse] openSUSE 10.3 and LTSP
Hello Is anyone using LTSP on openSUSE10.3? I have installed the components via the one-click on opensuse.org/LTSP. The system is an fresh original install (no updates) and the things from the LTSP one-click install. When I try to make the thing with "kiwi-ltsp-setup -s", it gets a fair bit along. It installs a whole bunch of packages in what it is creating. When it is going to make the netboot image, I get: Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Copying user defined files to image tree done Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Create .profile for package scripts done Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Setting up linuxrc... done Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Umounting path: /tmp/kiwi-netboot//base-system/media/SU1030.001 Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Umounting path: /tmp/kiwi-netboot//base-system/usr/share/kiwi/image/ltsp/suse-10.3/extra-packages Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Umounting path: /tmp/kiwi-netboot/dev/pts Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Umounting path: /tmp/kiwi-netboot/sys Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Umounting path: /tmp/kiwi-netboot/proc Jan-11 17:20 <1> : KIWI exited successfully done KIWI-LTSP: 2008-01-11 17:20:35: Verifying installation source...

Just be able to start a network service. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.

What installation media are you using here /media/SU1030.001 ? If it is retail DVD 1, it will not work, please use i586 DVD or iso image. You can also try with LTSP_DEBUG="1" option in /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp, that will give you some clue where it fails. Do post log after turning on debug if it fails.

I am using the original downloaded GM DVD image.
You can also try with LTSP_DEBUG="1" option in /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp, that will give you some clue where it fails.
Indeed, more info than was printed would help. I will try this tomorrow. TIA
Do post log after turning on debug if it fails.

This flag is already set to 1. So the log file I have (and the snippet in the original post) already contains all.
Do post log after turning on debug if it fails.
It is attached. I zipped it, so it is only 27 KB. I hope that does not upset anyone. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O. Box 4205 SE-102 65 Stockholm, Sweden Office: Int +46 8-615 60 20 Mobile: Int +46 70-815 1696

So, the original DVD image released on opensuse.org will work? With no updates? Or? The LTSP info on opensuse.org does not provide details of 'which' 10.3 is supported... Has anyone else made an LTSP boot directory? -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.

Yes, all you need is "i586 DVD5 media or iso image" as it says here: http://en.opensuse.org/LTSP http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/iso/dvd/openSUSE-10.3-GM-DVD-...

That is what I am using when it fails in the way I originally posted.

This is from the log you posted: KIWI-LTSP: 2008-01-11 17:20:35: Running the KIWI netboot creation. Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Setting log file to: terminal Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Reading image description... done Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Extracting kernel... failed Jan-11 17:20 <1> : Couldn't find compressed kernel failed Jan-11 17:20 <3> : KIWI exited with error(s) done KIWI-LTSP: 2008-01-11 17:20:36: Could not create the KIWI netboot. Aborting! Netboot image is not being built, did you by any chance edit any config.xml or other kiwi files directly, only file that needs changing is /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp and only thing right you need to get is installation source path and IP addresses, as the kiwi-ltsp image is built successfully that seems right. You can run kiwi-ltsp-setup -n1 and kiwi-ltsp-setup -n2 to find out more about where the netboot image creation fails. Make sure you are using the latest kiwi-desc-ltsp and kiwi packages. @Schaefi any idea why netboot image creation fails with this message? -J -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I only edited /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp. I want to see what happens out-of-the-box. Fiddling with other files will happen after I get the delivered stuff to work. Could this be related? https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=281487 I have switched IMAGETYPE to NFS to see it that helped. Nope. Same error. I also did try using the on-line repository. But kiwi claimed it could not find it. (This was before the current hardware issue taking the repository off-line.) I may have typed it wrong. Wouldn't it be: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/repo/oss/
You can run kiwi-ltsp-setup -n1 and kiwi-ltsp-setup -n2 to find out more about where the netboot image creation fails.

Make sure you are using the latest kiwi-desc-ltsp and kiwi packages.
I got them via the one-click on opensuse.org/LTSP
@Schaefi any idea why netboot image creation fails with this message?
