Hi All,

I am stuck with ISO missing error, I have customized ISO out of centos tree ISO get install with DVD (Burn on DVD and install from ROM) But i wanted to install from USB stick,*


It runs all pre-script*installation and stuck in mounting ISO from usb stick then it throw the "Missing ISO 9660 image" and exit the installation,**
I started debugging the code and came to the point where it failed, Following is the code point where it fail to mount the ISO.


anaconda/hardware.py[mountMedia]
** *def mountMedia(self, cdNum):** * * *if self.mediaIsMounted:** * * * * *raise SystemError, "trying to mount already-mounted iso image!"


** * * *self.mountDirectory()
** * * *retry = True** * * *while retry:** * * * * *try:** * * * * * * *isoImage = self.isoDir + '/' + self.path + '/' + self.discImages[cdNum]


** * * * * * * *isys.makeDevInode("loop3", "/tmp/loop3")** * * * * * * *isys.losetup("/tmp/loop3", isoImage, readOnly = 1)
** * * * * * * *isys.mount("loop3", self.tree, fstype = 'iso9660', readOnly = 1);

** * * * * * * *self.mediaIsMounted = cdNum
** * * * * * * *retry = False** * * * * *except:** * * * * * * *ans = self.messageWindow( _("Missing ISO 9660 Image"),

** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *_("The installer has tried to mount "** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *"image #%s, but cannot find it on "** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *"the hard drive.

"

** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *"Please copy this image to the "** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *"drive and click Retry. Click Reboot "** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *" to abort the installation.")

** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *% (cdNum,), type="custom", * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *custom_icon="warning",

** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *custom_buttons=[_("_Reboot"), * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *_("Re_try")])

** * * * * * * *if ans == 0:** * * * * * * * * *sys.exit(0)** * * * * * * *elif ans == 1:** * * * * * * * * *self.discImages = findIsoImages(self.isoPath, self.messageWindow)



[/mountMedia]

I started debugging installer and i found that iso file exist under "/tmp/isodir/images/centos.iso"


Filesystem for USB stick is FAT32*Partition type: W95 FAT32

Can some please help me to understand this code, in the above function "*isys.mount("loop3", self.tree, fstype = 'iso9660', readOnly = 1);" Why we are passing "self.tree" what is value of self.tree ? *



self.discImages = findIsoImages(self.isoPath, self.messageWindow), In this function it try to mount ISO from usb stick and path will be something like this "path = sdb1:vfat/images"*


Is this correct path to look at ? "sdb1:vfat/images"*




Thanks for the helpV!jay
