I also made sure to rename the image to 9fron.iso I can cat the image to the sd drive and it boots up with 1.2G fs with 30G of unclaimed space or empty partition. Not sure how to reclaim that extra space. so inst/start was the plan to try to reclain that space but after it does mountfs I run into the following Preparing menu...% mount /srv/9660.dist /n/dist /n/distmedia///9front.iso mount: mount /n/dist: unknown format % mount /srv/dos /n/distmedia /dev/sdU7b1211/dos % mount /srv/9660.dist /n/dist /n/distmedia///9front.iso mount: mount /n/dist: unknown format This is an uncompressed image. I also just tried to build the iso from scratch but ran into other issues. mk /tmp/9fron.arm64.iso mk: don't know how to make '/tmp/9fron.arm64.iso' in directory /sys/lib/dist Next is to skip mountfs and go to copydist. I think I will need to make some modifcations to /rc/bin/inst/copydist to get it working. But then I got a bit lost with disk/mkfs -z 16372 -U -s /n/dist /n/newfs /sys/lib/sysconfig/proto/allproto I guess bind the system root to /n/dist then try to run it or do something different not sure of the proto. I read it might be better to run disk/mkfs -a -s dist proto > arch but I think I got an error on that Quoth james palmer : > On 17 July 2022 04:23:01 BST, william@thinktankworkspaces.com wrote: > >I gave up and cat 9front-c5cf9b3e26033272c5f57b9a860c335e63786045.reform.img.gz > /dev/sdU7b121/data > > that is a gzip archive, > surely you want to unzip it first? try: > > gunzip <9front-c5cf9b3e26033272c5f57b9a860c335e63786045.reform.img.gz >/dev/sdU7b121/data > > - james >
