Thanks for your hard work on this. It is exciting that we finally are
able to produce .iso's again. Hope the report is helpful in some way.
1. First thing I notice is that .iso is smaller than usual at 1.0 GB,
they usually have been around 1.5-1.7 GB.
2. Next thing is that checksums don't get the 'OK' I'm used to seeing.
That is very unusual for our .iso's usually checking checksums is automatic.
$ md5sum -c OpenMandrivaLx.2015.0-beta-PLASMA.x86_64.iso.md5sum
OpenMandrivaLx.2015.0-beta-PLASMA.x86_64.iso: FAILED
md5sum: WARNING: 1 computed checksum did NOT match
$ sha1sum -c OpenMandrivaLx.2015.0-beta-PLASMA.x86_64.iso.sha1sum
OpenMandrivaLx.2015.0-beta-PLASMA.x86_64.iso: FAILED
sha1sum: WARNING: 1 computed checksum did NOT match
I then deleted all files and downloaded again. Again checksums don't
check out. That's very unusual for our .iso's.
3. So I burned to Flash drive with dd command. On my desktop (GPT
partitions, UEFI boot) BIOS did not see a UEFI boot option so I booted
in Legacy mode. It boots to emergency mode with this prompt, :/#
But no UEFI boot option is telling. What I got from 'journalctl -mxe' was:
a. systemd: dev-disk-by-blah, blah (the .iso).device appeared twice
with different sysfs paths.
b. kernel: SQUASHFS error: unable to read id index table
c. It quits at 'Failed to start switch root'
4. I'll burn a DVD and see what it does on VBox later today or in morning.
