What procedure are you following when building the .iso?
like it's written in the readme, just had to activate the iso option in config.
also making a squashfs or enabling compression didn't help, I thought this could spare some space.
on ubuntu 20.04, doing exactly as written under the topic 'You can build shredos using the following commands. This example build was compiled on KDE Neon (Ubuntu 20.04).' .
or can I use the . img for pxe booting too? the iso with nomodeset is working on pxe.
When I do it, there's a few extra things you need to do. I don't currently rely upon just selecting .iso in the menus.
Here's a list of what I do to change the .img build to a .iso build. You can probably ignore items 1,2 and 11.
I've highlighted part of item3 which may be what your problem is. The 'disk being full' is reference to the disk that is created for the USB image (.img). This disk can also be increased in size from it's current 280,000,000 bytes by editing the following entry in ../board/shredos/genimage.cfg as shown below
Building a legacy boot .iso image (not UEFI)
Using make menuconfig..
With reference to deselect EFI 64 as this causes a disk full error.. It doesn't matter if EFI 64 is deselected as ShredOS uses it's own separately build EFI software, not the EFI built by buildroot. This is probably why you are running out of space because you are creating two sets of EFI software and why you need to deselect EFI 64 bootloaders->grub2->
thanks a lot for the clear details, I'll try it out and let you know.
... with output "DISK FULL" when creating the iso image. I changed only grub.cfg slightly with nwipe options and there's plenty of space left on filesystem. any idea how to fix this?
