Hi at all



I try building Dvd Multi Linux, with Slax, Gparted, Trinity and other.
I think is better to separate submenu.lst of main Menù.

I use in main menù command:

title TRK 3.3 Trinity Rescue CD
find --set-root /trk/submenu.lst
configfile /trk/submenu.lst

# /trk/submenu.lst

title Run ^Trinity Rescue Kit 3.3 (default)
kernel /trk/kernel.trk
initrd /trk/initrd.trk ramdisk_size=49152 root=/dev/ram0 vga=788 splash=verbose pci=conf1
timeout 100



but, when start with VmWare appears this error:

Error 1: Filename must be either an absolute pathname or blocklist
Press any key to continue.



where mistake?


Thanks

Regards

In your approach.

Use COMMAND LINE, entering each line manually.

WHICH one gives you the error?

I.e. when booting press "c".
Type:

[ENTER]
Do you have the error?

Type:

[ENTER]
Do you have the error?

press "c" again.
Type:

[ENTER]
Do you have the error?

Type:

[ENTER]
Do you have the error?

Type:

[ENTER]
Do you have the error?

timeout, is NOT a command, and it should NOT be in a menu.lst entry, it can be in a menu.lst header.

I did not understand.

I removed the command timeout, but always Error 1.

When I create iso file this warning appears:
D: \> mkisofs-R-b grldr-no-emul-boot-boot-load-size 4-o Linux.iso D: \ Linux
Using TRSRU000.EXE, 1 for D: \ Linux/trk/trk3/trsrun-1_0.exe (trsrun-1_0-nq.exe)

D:\Linux\trk\trk3\trsrun-1_0.exe
D:\Linux\trk\trk3\trsrun-1_0-nq.exe

Thanks

WHICH single line makes the error?

Please, and you have already been told to, do not quote entire posts, there is no need for it.

Simply do EXACTLY what you are told to, one line at the time, and report.


Sure, you are using "wrong" mkisofs parameters.



mkisofs is converting a non 8+3 name into a 8+3 one.

Try adding -iso-level 4, see this thread:
http://www.911cd.net/forums//index.php?showtopic=18088

jaclaz

Not

Try(!!! 'timeout' is on the same line as 'kernel' !!!)

MfG, FM_81

does not change anything.


Regards

Timeout has been removed

Regards

Yes, may be - but that's not the important part:
parameters should be appended after KERNEL, not after INIRD ...

MfG, FM_81

KZW7179,
this is your last chance to start doing what you are told:



Please do take this opportunity.

jaclaz

I leave the folder structure of the iso image.
The error and that given above.

I give up.

I don't understand at all, but for example: files you are refer to in your config (here bolded)
--------------------------------------------------
title Run ^Trinity Rescue Kit 3.3 (default)
kernel /trk/kernel.trk ramdisk_size=49152 root=/dev/ram0 vga=788 splash=verbose pci=conf1
timeout 100
initrd /trk/initrd.trk
--------------------------------------------------
should exist in real at the same place (means same path and same name) in filesystem?

Greetings, FM_81

As said above use Command Line and test each command of action you want to do. If you find an error post failed line with successed above (if neaded) to clarify where da error is. And last thing, think

Hey Juozas

you are a nice kind! :-))

Yes, in fact, these days are a bit sleepy. :-))

However.

I started grub from the command line
with trk.lst submenu:

title Command Line Grub4Dos
commandline: commandline


I wrote:

find - set-root / grldr OK -> CD
kernel / kernel.trk OK
initrd / initrd.trk OK

ramdisk_size = 49152 command not recognized

root = / dev/ram0 Command not recognized

I launch memtest and it works

title ^ 21: ^ Memory tester: Memtest86 + v1.65
kernel / memtest.x86


Regards :-)

Sorry, you can NOT enter the kernel-parameters as a GRUB-command!
(Have you worked at the linux-side before?)

You should type in the GRUB-commandline (every codebox one single line, followed by <ENTER>)Any error at this point?Any error at this step?Now kernel and ramdisk will be loaded, later errors are depending on the linux-distribution-side, not GRUB-related!
How ever, many linux-live-systems are later loading a containerfile.
THIS ONE MUST ALSO EXIST IN YOUR BUILD ON THE RIGHT PLACE!

MfG, FM_81

Hi


I wrote to command line grub:

find --set-root /grldr result -> (cd) OK

kernel /kernel.trk OK

initrd /initrd.trk ramdisk_size=49152 root=/dev/ram0 vga=788 sp /*automatic return newline*/
lash=verbose pci=conf1

Error 1: path file name bla bla...



Regards

I know, it's not a good style, to quote myself, but have you readed this?
PARAMETERS FOLLOWING THE KERNEL-NAME, NOT AFTER THE INITRD!
GRUB'S SYNTAX IS DIFFERENT TO SYSLINUX/ISOLINUX!

Ok function, but during the upload hangs.


look for the cd player does not find, hard disk and usb
not found, try to load trk/trk3/trkramfs no such file or ...
stops at root @



Regards

Trinity Rescue Kit 3.3 does read volume label.

Use mkisofs

Yes, exactly, finally !!

..., but being an attempt to Multidistro Linux Dvd,
Vol ID that is good for the rest of the distro on Dvd?


Thank you

Regards

Try it ...
I don't have a multi-distro-DVD, but a multi-distro-USB-stick (KNOPPIX, SIDUX, SLAX, SYSRCD and so on) and none of them seems to ask for any special ID. All of them are booting "in happyness" if they only find her special "containerfile".

Greetings, FM_81

PS @ Trinity developers: I would say, that it is not a good idea, to include such things like checks against "Vol-ID" ...

Yes, I aggree too.

@KZW7179
Ask the Trinity maintainer: change the behaviour Vol ID
And ask for ISO file mounting at boot time.

...ok, thanks.


the difference between a Multi Distro Dvd and Multi Distro Usb what is it?

TRK perhaps not suitable for a Dvd Multi distro's.


Off topic

A proposed Multi Usb, because you know, by
Windows is not possible to partition a usb stick
in 2 or 4 partitions?

Answer: there is no driver for this?
Or, Hitachi Microfilter there, but I do not think specially written for devices
usb stick.

Because MS does not release a driver for this?
I think out of the world! :-)

Thank you

Regards

Good, to know this!


A little other behaviour during boot ...

More off topic:Only one partition; this stick doesn't include any MS-system anymore ...
(OK, OK, it would be nice, to have at least 'XP-Recovery-Console' on it, but you can believe: It is not so easy to start this one from an EXT2-filesystem! And I didn't want any FAT or NTFS on this stick.))

Much more off topic:Sorry, not knowing about "Hitachi Microfilter"; never needed, never used ...
But I'm sure, you'll find specialists about it here in forum ...

Hi

with which command Grub4Dos replacing the Prompt Isolinux/Syslinux?

Thank you
