!!! catalyst: Error creating profile link

im trying to compile something and it comes out with this i think i tracked down the script to this if theres any errors

Code: Select all

 # Setup "ROOT in chroot" dir
                install -d ${clst_chroot_path}/${clst_root_path}/etc

                # Setup make.conf and make.profile link in "ROOT in chroot":
                 copy_to_chroot ${clst_chroot_path}/etc/make.conf /${clst_root_path}/etc \
                 copy_to_chroot ${clst_chroot_path}/etc/make.profile /${clst_root_path}/etc \

                # Enter chroot, execute our build script
                exec_in_chroot \

but right now when i try to chroot my computer goes

Code: Select all

etc ~ # chroot testfolder /bin/bash
chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory

but bash works fine can any one recommend if theres any errors with the script or if its with my chroot problem i think prolly cause of kernel worse case guess

 such file or directory 

there are two slashes before etc.
i think ${clst_chroot_path} includes the trailing slash, and the copy_to_chroot line has a slash before the etc. try changing the two copy lines to

Code: Select all

copy_to_chroot ${clst_chroot_path}etc/make.conf /${clst_root_path}/etc \
                 copy_to_chroot ${clst_chroot_path}etc/make.profile /${clst_root_path}/etc \

of course, i could be completely wrong...

I'm running into this problem also and it looks like the problem is in /usr/lib/catalyst/modules/generic_stage_target.py on line 719

Code: Select all

print "Configuring profile link..."
cmd("rm -f "+self.settings["chroot_path"]+"/etc/make.profile",\

Somewhere along the way either it doesn't effect anything or a trailing / gets added to the chroot_path instead of a space. Adding a space before the /etc/make.profile gets by it but dies on the next line when it tries to remove the link since it sees it as a directory instead of a link because of that trailing /.

Seems like every time I try to make a livecd something goes wrong with the processes...and this one is right away

Should also note that change nuked my /etc/make.profile link so I suggest not to try this at home
