Fedora Installation :: Late Init Script For Live Image
May 26, 2011
I installed Fedora 13 and on my new laptop and tried upgrading to F15 and it gets stuck at "Late init script for live image".I've been searching and seen threads in the F15 Dev forum that I cannot reply to. I do not have akmod or kmod on this machine.I can get to a terminal, I have an SSH Server I installed before it broke. When I press ESC at the boot screen the last thing I see says "Late init script for live image"

When trying to install fedora with a 4gb USB stick, I get after partitioning the hard drive the following message: "The installation programme has failed to mount image #1 because it's not on the harddrive. I'm a dutchmen, so I hope this translation is correct.

I recently started trying fedora 10 out on live cd (in my case usb ) and loving it. I want to install it, should I get the dvd image, or would it be okay for me to just install off live cd (usb) and install whatever I want through the package manager later... Why/why not? Also on live usb, I can't find the package manager under applications.

Yesterday, i just got my Fedora live DVD. When i tried to boot it from my CD/DVD ROM drive, it seems to hang when it's just about to finish loading. From one of the prevous threads, one of the members said that i had to have 2 partitions on my HD. Currently, i already have 2 partitions. Can someone give me advice on what to do??

I'm a Linux newbie and are trying to install F13 from bootable USB onto the HD of a DELL mini netbook. I've followed the install wizard's defaults including the "Use All Space option." The install errors out at about 20% of progress during the "Copying live image to hard drive" process. The error dialog is as followed:"There was an error installing the live image to your hard drive. This could be due to bad media. Please verify your installation media..." and it comes with options to Exit installer or Retry. I have since retried and restarted several times and still came to the same error. FYI, I've initially attempted to install F13 to the HD over an existing Windows XP.

When I attempt to boot from the new Fedora 10 Live CD, it comes up with the initial screen, then gives me an error message saying something like, "Error with intranfs/init," and then it drops to bash, which I do not know how to use. I have P4 HT @3 GHZ., 2GB of RAM, a 400GB primary HD split between Windows XP and Mythbuntu 8.10 (dual boot), a 200 MB secondary HD (the primary is SATA, the other IDE), etc. I wanted to try the Live CD before deciding whether to change over to Fedora. I burned the ISO image of the Live CD to a CD-RW myself.

I've a headless custom device that boots from USB using live image. Since I cannot access the device through the network, I need a way to persist boot related log files (dmesg, boot.log, messages) to view them on another computer. I also need to know how can I run custom commands on startup of live image.

I am having trouble both installing or even just booting the live CD. I have to interrupt the boot to give the nomodeset boot option.
Once I get the Ubuntu splash with the oscillating red and white dots for several moments, I get the Busybox with the error message "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system"
If I do a dmesg I then see a lot of sr0 errors. I have an onboard SCSI controller but no scsi devices. I am not sure if this matters.

I just got fedora 13 today and put it on a slightly older computer to mess around with it, and two things I realized.
1. I installed Flash player through a program called easyLiving, but when i play flash games online like on armorgames, everything will play fine, but sound will play about 2 seconds late with actions.
2. I can't play .wmv files from my MP3 player, I found some codes online and installed them, but now it just looks like I have 3 different audio players in mozilla and I'm not sure which kind to enable, and I still can't play .wmv movies. (I actually believe that problem 1 is unrelated, because I noticed it before I started downloading different audio players.)

Currently I run into a rather confusing case. I met bellow mount errors when I was about to enter the rescue mode on SLES11:
Code:
Loading Rescue System (1/2) (19784 kB) - 100%
Loading Rescue System (2/2) (10268 kB) - 100%
Reading Driver Update...
[Code].....
Then I tried to extract the rescue image and to see what's wrong in the scrip, but it turn out that there is no boot script under /etc/init.d directory, either a similar one that may as it.
where is the script or which is the script does the mount things in rescue image?
PLUS, I can see /etc/init.d/boot script in SLES10 rescue image.

I plan on creating a backup of my Windows installation using DriveImage XML (unless you have a better idea ) then wiping my hard drive clean, creating a new partition for the backup install to live, and then installing Ubuntu on another partition. Is there a method of restoring my Windows backup to partition 1 by using the live cd? Then of course I can install ubuntu to partition 2.

I need little help on live disk creation and disk image backup.
Can I create live disk using my hard drive installation? If yes then, can I restore the fedora from the live disk to the hard drive. I mean to say that from that live disk can I install fedora again in my hard drive.
Second question is, if I create the disk image of my hard drive( including ntfs & FAT32 partition) , can I restore it in a blank drive. If so , then can os will be restored also?

I know that the second dot release of Squeeze has been released (6.0.2). Why live images still point to 6.0.1?Is that update not going to be released as live?

I can barely use the live session CD of Ubuntu 11.04 because,everything gets corrupted,i cant open new windows because it starts to get horrible, like if i had a graphics problem, managed somehow to open Mozilla and write this, but its impossible to do anything else that needs to open more windows layers...
I never had this problem with ubuntu before... my graphics are intel extreme graphics 2.i cant even use the terminal because it is in few words... invisible, unless I move it but then, disappears.I can work normally using windows. Also i have ubuntu karmic live cd and works perfectly.

i feel like this is a stupid question as i have seen many different ways to make a debian live cd, but the only way i understand is remastersys.i am trying to make a snapshot of my own debian unstable (sid) to be capable of re-distribution. remastersys will ONLY work on ubuntu, lenny, and squeeze.if anyone knows of any relatively simple tools i could use or could write an easy how too that would be very much appreciated. i am attempting to stray away from ubuntu and ubuntu based distros and use debian instead, although i cant find any distribution based on debian that i really like (maybe linux mint debian edition based on debian testing), but i really want the software right out of unstable (sid) and i would like to be able to make a distribute-able snapshot for myself and others that may be interested. (xfce + compiz + others, hopefully plymouth, out of the box). i have made some very good headway on this, but i dont know how to make a live cd out of an installed system without remastersys.

The KDE live CD image that I downloaded is defective. That's great. Just great. What a waste of 700mb of my Internet usage.

After installing Ubuntu to a flash drive, and customizing it heavily, I am running out of room (8 percent remaining on a 4GB flash drive). While I could go buy another flash drive, I already have plenty of storage between a 500GB external hard drive and a DLink NAS. What I would like to do is use unionfs to mount an image (around 6GB in size) over my 4GB flash drive. When it is mounted, all file changes should be synced to the unionfs image, thus "archiving" my flash drive. I have created the 6gb image, formatted it as Ext4 (same type as my flash drive), but when I mount it (using 'unionfs-fuse /media/SG_EHDD/devices/unionfs.dev -o cow /') any changes that I make are not made on the image. I think I am missing an option, namely the -o chroot=SOME_TEXT, but when I put -o chroot=/media/SG_EHDD/devices/, it says it cannot load /media/SG_EHDD/devices//media/SG_EHDD/devices/unionfs.dev. It also gives me the same errors when I cd to /media/SG_EHDD/devices and run unionfs-fuse with ./unionfs.dev for the path to the filesystem image.

I've seen some tools available for taking image backups (amanda, bacula, ...) of the O/S. I have a nas drive and want to back up the the entire disk to it (while running preferrably). Can someone recommend what tool would be best to use (free of course) and hopefully not too complex.

Just fooling around with a live image, thinking about dumping Ubuntu for a straight Debian install and I can't get wireless running on it. Is this a "known issue?"
