Ignite UX archive is empty

[Kumar Paramasivam]

Hi,
I have created the CD bootable image in iso 9660 format and tried to boot from the CD, I got the following error:

cat: cannot open /tmp/ign_configure/SD_CDROM/deimos.gz No such file or directory
* Completed 0 kbytes of archive

gunzip: stdin unexpected end of file.
pax_ux:The archive is empty.

ERROR: Cannot load OS archive (Englis HP_UX 11.00 CD - 32 bit OS)

I have created the CD using make_medialif and make_sys_image.

I have followed the same steps as mentioned in instl_combine for creating the iso image.

Any help will be appreciated!.

Thanks

Hi,

If you look at the iso with say winimage, does the path to the file in question exist? Remember, case is important.

I have put the same cd in the solaris I saw the following:

# ls -l
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root sys 500315277 Mar 25 11:09 deimos.gz

-r-xr-xr-x 1 root sys 48522240 Mar 25 11:12 uxinstlf.

-r-xr-xr-x 1 root sys 2048 Mar 25 11:13 boot.cat

It seems deimos.gz is exist there.

what is your pwd?

when I did df -k I got the following:

/vol/dev/dsk/c0t2d0/cdrom
536064 536064 0 100% /cdrom/cdrom

cdrom is mounted under /cdrom/cdrom.

pwd was : /cdrom/cdrom

[Ross Zubritski]

/tmp/ign_configure/SD_CDROM/deimos.gz

Not good.

You asked me to verify on win system. I have verified it on solaris box. This df -k output of cdrom was from the solaris machine after mounting ISO Image CD on it.

As far the booting image is concerned, When I was booting on HP-UX System I got above error. At the given ls, pwd commands didn't work at all. I could not figure out what the directory was at the time of installation.

I am seeing deimos.gz on the cd on the other system. Why it says no such file or directory when it is there?.

[Ross Zubritski]

It is looking for the image at /tmp/ign_configure/SD_CDROM/deimos.gz within the iso image. I am trying to determine if that path is indeed valid.

RZ:

At that time, cd command was workng, I went into the directory "/tmp/ign_config/SD_CDROM".

After that I could not do anything. I am sure that path exists ( I could do cd to that directory).

Thanks.
