Mounting .img file (chromiumos.img); can't mount it?? Help please?
OK
I tried many things hitting chromiumos.img with file gets this Code:
root@PartedMagic:/media/hda4/root/Desktop/chromiumos# file chromiumos.img Code:
mount -o loop unr.img mnt why not here's unr.img's file Code:
root@PartedMagic:/media/hdb1# file ubuntu-9.04-netbook-remix-i386.img how can I mount the chromiumos.img?? thanks |
OK
I found this most helpful http://panoskrt.wordpress.com/2009/0...in-image-file/ luckily kpartx is available in 9.04:) However, after doing kpartx -a & -l I get this Code:
root@phalanx:~/Desktop/chromiumos# kpartx -a chromiumos.img The directions say: Code:
Checking which loop device was used to mount the partitions: I made /mnt/img it still says it needs fs type? maybe its swap? |
OK
I've confirmed that after issuing Code:
root@phalanx:~/Desktop/chromiumos# kpartx -a chromiumos.img Code:
mkdir /mnt/img it is NOT a squashfs fs, it is the filesystem extracted as with a reg hd install (sad) partition 2 Code:
partition 2: ID=0x82, starthead 0, startsector 1945601, 1945600 sectors; why would anyone want to have a user dd a linux system onto usb, creating 3 partitions One of which is a No-No-for-USB swap partition??! chromiumos.img is here; though I suggest you investigate prior to dd'ing it to USB! http://carbon.hexxeh.net/chromiumos/ the post this thread is about is here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...56#post3770956 And I'll mark this thread "semi-solved"! |
