Operation Not permitted

[DogeLeader]

this error happens when I use the command: sudo ./build_rootfs.sh data/rootfs bookworm:

mknod: /workspace/shimboot/rootfs/test-dev-null: Operation not permitted E: Cannot install into target '/workspace/shimboot/rootfs' mounted with noexec or nodev

[OtterCodes101]

You cannot use Gitpod or Github Codespaces to build Shimboot.

[DogeLeader]

Alright, thanks.

You can try remounting the filesystem with the exec and dev flags.

Find the mount point by doing findmnt -T .

On my PC this prints out the following:

TARGET SOURCE    FSTYPE OPTIONS
/      /dev/sdb2 ext4   rw,noatime

Now run sudo mount -o remount,exec,dev {TARGET}, replacing {TARGET} with the path listed as the target in the output of the previous command.

[DogeLeader]

what does the mountpoint look like

[DogeLeader]

where in the output is it?

[DogeLeader]

It says "permission denied"

[ading2210]

Can you send the output of the commands you're running?

[ading2210]

@DogeLeader Try running these commands in your terminal, I tested it to work on Github Codespaces:

mountpoint="$(findmnt -T . | tail -n1 | cut -f1 -d' ')"
mount -o remount,dev,exec "$mountpoint"

[ading2210]

This was also fixed in the latest commit, so do a git pull and try again.

[DogeLeader]

abc@418b89848064:~/shimboot$ findmnt -T . TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS /config /dev/loop3[/codespacemount/workspace/DesktopOnCodespaces/Save] ext4 rw,node

[ading2210]

That looks to be right, you can try re-running the scripts now.

[DogeLeader]

what should i copy?

[DogeLeader]

Out of the output

[ading2210]

You don't need to copy anything, I've already fixed the bug here. Just clone the repository again and retry the build.

[DogeLeader]

oh alright ill try

[DogeLeader]

sudo ./build_rootfs.sh data/rootfs bookworm

[DogeLeader]

mount: /config: permission denied.

[ading2210]

Did you delete and clone the repository again from scratch?

[DogeLeader]

yep

[ading2210]

Try running sudo DEBUG=1 ./build_rootfs.sh data/rootfs bookworm, and copy-paste the entire output of that command.

[DogeLeader]

what I do from here on?

[DogeLeader]

I figured it out the command only works when it is this: sudo ./build_rootfs.sh /data/rootfs bookworm. You have to add a / before data. But after that I still did not have full access to /config.

[DogeLeader]

I could not complete the process successfully. So I have one request, please add the: Jacuzzi board to the pre-built image uploads

[DogeLeader]

Thanks for all the tech support!

[DogeLeader]

I look forward to your response!

[ading2210]

Jacuzzi is an ARM-based board, those are not supported yet. See issue #8

[DogeLeader]

Are you going to add arm support in the future?

[DogeLeader]

Because it would be very helpful.

[DogeLeader]

Not going lie, my the school has our Chromebooks locked down tight: Our Chromebooks are arm based and they have digital write protection.

[OtterCodes101]

yes, again see issue #8 for arm support progress
