<div dir="ltr"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Hi,</span><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">
I am kinda new at distro_const and open-source projects as well.</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">What I am trying to do is just creating a custom ISO with some pre-modified system configuration files such as /etc/hosts.allow, etc. However, I am unfortunately facing with some issues. Actually I was sort of hesitating to email you since I am using OpenSolaris, not OpenIndiana; the OpenSolaris hub is not existing anymore, I guess. </div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><div><br></div><div><div>Anyway,,,</div><div><br></div><div>I am using OpenSolaris 134b version for this work.</div></div><div>I've created a local repository server w/ an address of <a href="http://192.168.0.130:81/" target="_blank">192.168.0.130:81</a>.</div>
<div>And the distro_const is running on another machine in the same network. Both machines have customized OpenSolaris 134b OS which was generated by someone else with the distro_const utility. The customized snv_134b ISO has some modifications similar to what's in my own finalizer script, myStorage.sh. I am not sure if it affects to ISO generation processes, but please note that I am using a custom ISO based on snv_134b, not the original snv_134b.</div>
<div><br></div><div>ISO creation processes seem to be fine as shown in the log; you can find the log at the top portion of the attached manifest file, myStorage_23.xml. However, I got an issue when I install the OS using the newly generated ISO.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Followings are what I end up with:</div><div><br></div><div><div>- GRUB is fine. </div><div>- Language & Keyboard selections are fine also</div><div>- Console login prompt appears.</div><div>- Then, a mouse pointer looking like a clock appears with black background.</div>
<div>- Then, nothing happens. Just hangs there. It's not moving to the next desktop screen which has "Install OpenSolaris" icon.<br></div><div>- After pressing power button, the screen says "bootadm: failed to open file: //platform/i86pc/kernel/unix: No such file or directory" along with some power-down process messages.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Using all of USB/CD/DVD yield same results.FYI, I've used OsolLiveUSB.exe (Version 0.03 for Windows) in order to generate bootable USB.</div><div><br></div><div>For your reference, I am attaching my own manifest file and the finalizer script. I hope there's someone who can help me out with this. It's not been easy for me to find helpful materials in the web for my purposes. If you need more information, please let me know. Any comment/advice/reference site/documentation/etc will be greatly appreciated.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thank you.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>P.S. </div><div>When I use a default manifest file without adding my own finalizer script in the <finalizer> section, ISO creation and OS installation are successful without any issue. Also, I've tried using the default manifest file with addition of some packages, but without the finalizer script.</div>
<div>It's still created fine and installed successfully.</div><div><br></div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>--<br>Truly,<br><br>James Lee</div></div>
