Topic: [SOLVED] Create GParted Live from Scratch

I am following the "Create Gparted live from scratch" instructions and all goes well until booting from the newly created CD. 
I get the error "aufs: Unknown symbol exportfs_decode_fh". 
This occurs after " Begin: Running /scripts/live-premount ... done." 
Then the error "modprobe: Fatal: Error inserting aufs (/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-486/extra/aufs/aufs.ko): unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmsg). 

To run the create-gparted-live script, I first booted the PC using gparted-live-0-4.5-2, then followed the steps in the instructions.  I used create-gparted-live -t cd to make the gparted iso file.  After burning the CD and booting the PC from this CD, I then get the error described above.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [SOLVED] Create GParted Live from Scratch

Try:
/opt/drbl/sbin/create-gparted-live -l en -b u -e e -m http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian -s http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian-security -g http://free.nchc.org.tw/drbl-core -n 2.6.30-backports.1
It will create GParted live 0.4.6.
In the above command, you can use other Debian repositories (for -m, -s options).
For -g, you can use http://drbl.sourceforge.net/drbl-core, maybe it will be faster.

BTW, the above command is also shown in the file "GParted-Live-Version" in the GParted live iso file.

Re: [SOLVED] Create GParted Live from Scratch

Steven,

Thanks for your reply.  I used:
/opt/drbl/sbin/create-gparted-live -l en -b u -e e -m http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian -s http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian-security -g http://drbl.sourceforge.net/drbl-core -n 2.6.30-backports.1
to make the live CD.

I get the same error.  The following lines are reported to the monitor:

aufs: Uknown symbol exportfs_decode_fh
aufs: Uknown symbol exportfs_decode_fh
loop: AES key scrubbing enabled
loop: loaded (max 8 devices)
squashfs: version 4.0 (2009/01/31) Phillip Lougher
aufs: Uknown symbol exportfs_decode_fh
aufs: Uknown symbol exportfs_decode_fh
modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting aufs (/lib/modules/2.6.30-backports.1-486/extra/aufs/aufs.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
.
.
.

live-initramfs will now start a shell.  The error message was:
mount aufs on /root failed with option noatime,dirs=/cow=rw://filesystem.squashfs=rr

Thanks for your help,

Jim

Re: [SOLVED] Create GParted Live from Scratch

Jim,
Thanks for the bug report. I have fixed the package clonezilla, so this problem should has gone.
Please upgrade clonezilla to be 2.3.3-81 or later, then run:
/opt/drbl/sbin/create-gparted-live -l en -b u -e e -m http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian -s http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian-security -g http://drbl.sourceforge.net/drbl-core -n 2.6.30-backports.1
to make the live CD.

BTW, if you prefer to use Debian Squeeze instead of Lenny, you can try this:
/opt/drbl/sbin/create-gparted-live -l en -b u -e e -d squeeze -m http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian -s http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian-security -g http://free.nchc.org.tw/drbl-core

Please let me know the results.
Thanks.

Steven.

Thanks for your help.  The create-gparted-live script works now.
