problem with building /dev/loopx

[Stephen Graf]

Yesterday I started to have problems using the build environment.  Any build I have tried fails with something as shown below.  (https://paste.armbian.com/noloqaquqo)

Today I updated vbox, reinstalled ubuntu  git cloned master and tried again with the similar results (different loopx sometimes).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I suspect this is the same issue as recently reported here:

@SteeMan

Yes it is.  I just found it also.

After reading those posts I loaded ubuntu 23.10 with kernel 6.5 and am having success creating images.

Can you add my posts to the other thread?

 

What changed a few days ago to cause this? I had been using the official ubuntu build for months without ant changes of snags.
