I'm trying to add a few things to the install DVD for SL 4.5 x86_64. I downloaded all 6 of the SL 4.5 CD ISO images. Used the notes on the SL site to combine all the CD's into one DVD and that worked fine. I can boot, install, rescue, etc. from this DVD. Now I'm trying to add some drivers, modules, etc. to the DVD so I've got everything I need in one place and don't have to have a floppy for drivers, etc.. I had some problems with the build environment. I did some Google searching and found out all the system scripts were expecting none of the `LC_' language environmental variables to be set or at least not set to anything but "en_US.UTF-8". I corrected that problem. The build and DVD burn all seem to go ok. Rescue mode seems fine and all my additions seem to be there. The problem comes when I try to install SL from scratch. Everything seems to work fine up to and including the point where one sets the initial firewall parameters and SELinux. At this point the install stops and gives me a popup window with the following errors: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.63.SL//usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 792, in nextClicked self.setScreen () File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.63.SL//usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1135, in setScreen new_screen = apply(self.currentWindow.getScreen, args) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.63.SL//usr/lib/anaconda/iw/language_support_gui.py", line 181, in getScreen self.defaultLang = self.langs.getDefault() File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.63.SL//usr/lib/anaconda/language.py", line 250, in getDefault name = self.getLangNameByNick(lang) File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.63.SL//usr/lib/anaconda/language.py", line 235, in getLangNameByNick return self.getLangNameByNick("en_US.UTF-8") ... (last 2 lines repeated 993 times and then) RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded Local variables in innermost frame: nick: en_US.UTF-8 self: Google searching says this is the language environmental variable setting problem I thought I had fixed. I've been beating on this for a couple of weeks now and don't know where to go from here. Anyone here have any ideas? I have the anacdump.txt file, which includes the /tmp/syslog, /tmp/anaconda.log, and /tmp/lvmout logs. The anaconda.log shows the last thing Anaconda was working on was: moving (1) to step languagesupport While `buildinstall' is running, the `upd-instroot' script gives some errors/warnings during the 'Creating bogl font..' section. It executes the following command: find /tmp/treedir/instimage/usr/share/locale -name '*.mo' -exec msgunfmt '{}' ';' and I see the following: error -1 at position 2325299 (bytes: 16 Used chars: 1202 (2325299 processed) find: msgunfmt terminated by signal 13 The last line repeated 209 times. If I try that type of command manually on the system files, it seems to work with out errors. Next I get: gzip: /tmp/treedir/instimage/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/loader/font.bgf.gz already exists; do you wish to overwrite (y or n)? I type `y' and things seem to proceed fine. Later I see 2 more warnings in `upd-instroot' complaining about `/tmp/treedir/image-template/lib' and `/tmp/treedir/instimage/lib' not existing, but it presses on. After that, everything seems to run fine, although there are thousands of lines in the output most of which I have no clue what is going on. If any one has any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for any help. -- Brent L. Bates (UNIX Sys. Admin.)
