Hi,
I have an OS wich I built as USB/Hard Disk Image so I could use the Overlay Files feature with Testdrive. But when I try to launch from Testdrive, it shows me the grub interface.
I press on my OS, and it try to boot, and it gives me this message.
Loading Xen
WARNING: no console will be available to OS
Loading linux.vmx…
error: terminal ‘gfxterm’ isn’t found.
Loading initrd…
error: file ‘/boot/initrd’ not found.
Press any key to continue…_
I have built the OS using live CD, and it seems to work. But I want the USB/Hard Disk Image so I can do overlay files.
Thanks,
Apparently you miss grub2 on boot device. Hard to say more, I have no idea what Testdrive is nor how do you launch from it. Could you explain in more details (also how is it related to SUSE Studio)?
Hi,
Testdrive is a feature in SUSE Studio where you get to try out my OS in your browser (I use the browser Chrome for it).
I think that mabe Grub is installed because when I boot the live CD both on Testdrive, and on a real laptop, it works.
Thanks,
If the virtualization technology is not important to you, maybe try building using something other than Xen, eg a generic disk image or VMware image (You can download and install VMware Player which is completely free although you <may> need to provide some information about yourself).
If you are building a Xen image, do you have Xen installed? If you haven’t, this may be required (I don’t know about this, I haven’t tried this option), go to the Virtualization forum and find threads that describe how to install Xen.
