Error: The location 272629760 is outside of the device

[filipecarneiro]

I’m trying to add a new custom stage (stage6) to the build process.

This stage has several subdirectories but I’ve managed to reproduce the error with just one “00-packages”.

My custom stage looks like this:

• Stage6
  • 00-install-packages
    • 00-packages
  • EXPORT_IMAGE
  • EXPORT_NOOBS
  • Prerun.sh

00-packages content:

xdotool unclutter sed git rfkill tree

Notes

EXPORT_IMAGE, EXPORT_NOOBS and prerun.sh have the same content as the other stages.

I’ve also added SKIP empty files to stage3, stage4 and stage5 and SKIP_IMAGES to stage4 and stage5 as instructed.

Just to be sure, I’ve specified IMAGE_LIST="stage0 stage1 stage2 stage6" to config.

Is this ok?

Log

I’ve got this error at the end of the build script:

What I’m I missing?

[daisylb]

Are your scripts (particularly prerun.sh) executable? I ran into some similar issues and that turned out to be one of the culprits.

[seclorum]

This seems to be related to the use of "GB" versus "GiB" in the partition build scripts.

[pyr0ball]

Any fix on this? I'm currently getting the same issue on the latest master, using the docker image build and a few localization customizations

[kmendez]

FWIW, I got this exact same error because I didn't pluralize SKIP_IMAGES. I just had empty files named SKIP_IMAGE in the stages I didn't want to run and received the same error. After correcting the name the build process completed without error.

Hopefully this helps someone along the way.

[leodonathilic]

Any fixes? I've been stuck on this error and can't find a solution..

[leodonathilic]

edit: prerun.sh was missing in the stage.

#!/bin/bash -e

if [ ! -d "${ROOTFS_DIR}" ]; then
    copy_previous
fi

(this should be the content of the prerun.sh file)

It seems to have fixed my problem, maybe it would work on your side too!

[dmelo]

Had this exact same problem and @kmendez advise worked for me, In my case, I only had empty SKIP files. But then, after creating the SKIP_IMAGES files it worked.
