image build problem : chroot: failed to run command `/bin/bash'

[Bino Oetomo]

My build process stoped with

[ o.k. ] Install locales [ en_US.UTF-8 ]
chroot: failed to run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
chroot: failed to run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
chroot: failed to run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
chroot: failed to run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
[ error ] Installation of package failed

I take a look at 'debootstrap.sh' Aller 'Install locales' come at line 146, The command is at line 147 is :

LC_ALL=C LANGUAGE=C LANG=C chroot $DEST/cache/sdcard /bin/bash -c "apt-get -y -qq install locales"

while .... there is another similar 'chroot $DEST/cache/sdcard /bin/bash' command before it that succeed.

 

Note : My build host is i686 Precise.

 

Can any body give me a clue to fix it ?

This happen if initial debootstrap process fails. Remove cache/rootfs , reboot and try again.

[Bino Oetomo]

dear Sir ...

There is no rootfs files/directory found in my PC.

I just reboot it.

And ... unfor tunately there is another error.
Looks like to day there is 4.3 (Yesterday it's 4.2.5) at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git

It cause some more configuration questions appears although I set KERNEL_CONFIGURE="no"
I follow all with default values,

Update script - remove /lib or (git checkout -f)to force update I made few changes in last several days

 

I have to check / alter patches if they are 4.3 compatible. I'll today .... 4.2.5 is working fine.

[Bino Oetomo]

Dear Sir.

Just a report.

1. I do that /lib refetch
2. remove output directory

The previous trial before I did refetch also with no output directory, still failed at bootstrap things.
But errors about kernel didn't show up after I change value at line 409 in configuration.sh tobe :
 

LINUXDEFAULT="4.2.5" #Used tobe 'master'

Yes it show --->

error: pathspec '4.2.5' did not match any file(s) known to git.

But the process running well until bootstrap things.

sincerely

[Bino Oetomo]

another report

The image creation still problem.
But I thing the debs creation work, with modification at configuration.sh as above.

My trial step is this :
1. I boot my board from SD card
This SD card is based on your Vanila image.
I did debs update using my previous (pre 4.3) compile process
Reboot it .... and it give me

 

Linux cubieboard2 4.2.5-sunxi #1 SMP Sat Oct 31 11:24:10 WIB 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux

2. make another debs update using my last build process,
now it give me

 

Linux cubieboard2 4.2.5-sunxi #2 SMP Mon Nov 2 13:34:03 WIB 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux

So I thing the easiest route to make image is boot the board using your image and do dpkg -i of all new created debs.

Sincerely
-bino-

I have other question .. it's about add another dts patching process to the build script, but I'll post it to new thread.

 

[Igor]

If you are adding your own custom build kernel you need to un-install default kernel package or name it differently + alter boot script otherwise the update will update it with new Armbian version.

[Igor]

Kernel 4.3 building fixed. There are still some issues with compilation speed (not my script issue) but building is possible.

 

I made a test run and now testing a new kernel on R1 therefore I need to reboot it after 22 days (!) of stress test uptime. 

Linux lamobo-r1 4.3.0-sunxi #3 SMP Mon Nov 2 20:15:28 CET 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux

Hi,

 

I have exactly the same problem with the last git...

 

[ o.k. ] Install locales [ en_US.UTF-8 ]
chroot: failed to run command '/bin/bash': No such file or directory
chroot: failed to run command '/bin/bash': No such file or directory
chroot: failed to run command '/bin/bash': No such file or directory
chroot: failed to run command '/bin/bash': No such file or directory
[ error ] Installation of package failed

 

[Igor]

Please provide more info - what you build and how?

[assidu]

Hi,

I build just as the documentation tell me : I'm running under debian jessie and I would like build simply my img file with the latest updates (with kernel security issues up to date).I have solved all the difficulty to configure the proxy/firewall and your script can reach all the files (key hkp are installed and git is ok).

my choice to build image was : jessie with legacy kernel 3.4
but as you can see, the script is stopping with this error (chroot: failed to run command '/bin/bash': No such file or directory

[ error ] Installation of package failed)

no changes have been made to the script !

thank you very much for your response !

[Igor]

I am running script on daily basis and I am not the only one. I would need to ask you for more: are you using Ubuntu Trusty?

 

Next. Do a reboot, remove output/cache and try again.
