Support

i need a small clarification
as per the archiso documentation:-
as superuser running
mkarchiso -v -w /path/to/work_dir -o /path/to/out_dir /path/to/profile/

makes the iso …
but when i run the same command as:-

mkarchiso -v -w ./work -o ./out ./releng/

it dosen’t work but throws me an error

[mkarchiso] ERROR: Invalid command name './releng/'

Whar can be done to resolve it

22

This is not Arch support forum but as a one time favor …

Did you install the packages archiso and arch-install-scripts?

When you copy the releng profile to your home - use the build.sh script inside the releng folder.

Your packagelist is packages.x86_64 - your customizations go inside airootfs.

23

i did both of them
(ps there is an issue in the arch foru while posting , a bug that s why i asked here sorry)

24

but still i get the same error, the command not found error, lemme send a screenshot of the full error

don’t post screenshots - post the text - I can’t read a screen but text I can.

paste the text - select the text - click the code format button - looks like </>

28

but this is how the command structure is as per documentation, i verified it twice

This is why i feel archiso is a bit buggy

29

I have create a script to launch the build.sh script

#!/bin/bash
echo "cleaning work folders (./work ./out)"
rm  -rf work out
iso_label="norse-nix_$(date +%Y%m%d)"
./build.sh -N 'Norse Nix' -L "${iso_label}" -P 'Norse Nix <https://norse.nix.dk>' -A 'Norse Nix Live ISO/Rescue'
30

sure i will try it
lets hope the best

31 
sudo sh run.sh
cleaning work folders (./work ./out)
run.sh: line 5: ./build.sh: No such file or directory

i guess i need to replace the name build.sh with steps.sh in the file

let me send me directory structure

build-instructions.txt  efiboot  etc  opt  packages.x86_64  pacman.conf  profiledef.sh  releng  run.sh  steps.sh  syslinux  usr

I know why you are having an issue on Arch forum - you are not experienced user - you are just pretending.

I am out … have a nice day.
