Can't boot live USB
Computer is Lenovo E520 Thinkpad. I have run numerous Linux distros on it.
Downloaded slackware64-live-current.iso and iso2usb.sh. Installed to thumb drive, tried to boot from it. Boot ignores the USB and skips to my HDD GRUB. If I F12 to select boot device as USB HDD, it tries for a few seconds, but cycles back to the same boot device menu. I have tried changing BIOS to both EFI and Legacy mode. Results are the same for both. Then I bought new USB drives and tried again. Same results. From a running Fedora, I performed fdisk -l on the Slackware USB. Here are the results. Code:
# fdisk -l /dev/sdc Here is the fdisk -l for the Live Fedora USB. Noe the difference on the Disklabel type- gpt vs.dos Code:
# fdisk -l /dev/sdb |
Thwe partition layout looks like expected. If the drive does not boot, can you recall any errors at the end of running "iso2usb.sh"? I don't suppose you captured the output while that command was running?
|
I was pretty certain that the iso2usb.sh did not throw any errors, but I did not retain the logs. I decided to recreate the process. Since the USB already had the files on it, iso2usb.sh tried to do a shortcut and not do anything. I force the situation by deleting the partitions, changing the drive type to dos, then creating some fake dos partitions. THis allowed iso2ush.sh to run normally. No errors were thrown. Log below. After that, I tried booting from the USB again, but the results were the same.

Can't see anything wrong there. Is your computer using BIOS or UEFI? Have you tried the USB stick in another computer yet?
I create my USB stick the same way and it boots on computers that operate under BIOS as well as computers with UEFI. |
When I run Fedora 25 on native disk, I perform efibootmgr and it tells me "EFI variables are not supported on this system". This suggests that the machine is NOT running UEFI. When I look in the BIOS setup options, it is set for BOTH on UEFI and Legacy, with UEFI being first.
If I force BIOS setup into UEFI, I then tried the USB. It comes up to a Boot Device menu, which includes the USB. I select it, but it immediately returns to the same Boot Device menu. No messages flashed or displayed. If I force BISO setup into Legacy (BIOS I assume), it does not go to the Boot Device menu, but instead boots from the regular HDD. If I restart and F12 to the Boot Device menu, it includes the USB. I select it, and it seems to try for 2 or 3 seconds, but then returns to the same Boot Device menu. Again no messages displayed. I tried it on another computer, an older HP desktop, which only has legacy, no UEFI installed. This gives me a slightly meaningful error message: SYSLINUX 6.04 EDD Copyright (C) 1994-2015 H. Peter Anvin et al Failed to load ldlinux.c32 Boot failed: plese change disks and press a key to continue. I don't know if the c32 in the error refers to 32-bit. This is a 64-bit machine, as is the laptop. Thanks Jim |
Does this article and its suggested solution help you? What OS were you running when you executed iso2usb.sh?
Edit: I went ahead and implemented this new requirement for syslinux >= 6.03: http://bear.alienbase.nl/cgit/livesl...7127c013b1b39c Note that Slackware still has syslinux-4.07 - we do not suffer from this issue. |

Thanks. I am running Fedora 25 XFCE spin. I applied the patch you suggested and re-ran the iso2usb.sh. It rebuilt the USB without any errors. (I saved the terminal listing if you want it). When booting from the Lenovo laptop, results were identical, still unable to run at all. (I did not mention before, and not sure if it is pertinent, but I did burn a DVD from the ISO. I can boot and run this without problem on the laptop. However, obviously that does not have the persistent features of running from a USB.) When I tried to boot from the HP desktop, results are slightly different, but still does not boot successfully. Here is what it says: SYSLINUX 6.04 EDD Copyright (C) 1994-2015 H. Peter Anvin et al Failed to load COM32 file vesamenu.c32 boot: (lines 2-3 keep repeating every minute or so.) |
I think that the problems comes from running this script on Fedora 25: in doing so you are mixing files from 4.07 and 6.04pre1 syslinux versions.
The script iso2usb.sh copies the file vesamenu.c32 from Slackware on the boot stick, then runs extlinux to install the bootloader on the USB stick. vesamenu.c32 comes from syslinux version 4.07 but the binary extlinux comes from the system that runs the script, in your case 6.04pre1 (which is a pre-release from another branch). Quote:
For syslinux to work, it is safer that all components used come from the same version of the package. tl;dr: I suggest to run a Slackware Live from a DVD (maybe the full version, I didn't check if the needed packages are included in the XFCE one) and run iso2usb.sh from there. Eric, please correct me as need be. |

Can you find anything in the messagelog or the kernel log about status changes of the USB device? Also, you can add "-v" parameter to the iso2usb.sh commandline to get more verbose progress details about the rsync. |

Can't boot live USB
Quote:
So it seems that it is necessary to create the USB from a Live DVD running Slackware. This proves that the USB creation process works. So does anybody have any suggestions on how to get this to boot on the Thinkpad E520? Thanks Jim |

Can't boot live USB
Quote:
I confirmed that I have the most current BIOS that Lenovo offers, i.e., January 2013. I had previously changed the boot option to be Legacy only. Just to be sure, I tried it again. Same results, i.e., I must interrupt startup to select Startup Device List. I then select the USB device, it tries for a second or two, but then loops back to the Startup Device List. Tried a few iterations, same results. Just to be certain of the machine's ability, I burned a USB directly. While running my regular HDD Fedora 25, I performed Code:
dd if=slackware64-live-current.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M I'm not certain what you are suggesting that I do with xorriso. Should I use the input file of the existing iso and create a newly named outout iso? Then run the iso2usb.sh against that? Thanks Jim |
