#5102 pungi traceback in mkmacboot
Closed: Fixed None Opened 12 years ago by kparal.

Creating x86_64 compose fails for a long time now, no .treeinfo is being created. Several issues were solved, but some problems still remain. I don't know whether this is another cause, but I found this traceback in the log:

Can somebody push the new lorax to updates, please? I need to test x86_64 compose and I'd like to speed things up a bit. It was broken for way too long. I'll happily test the new lorax.

Reopening the ticket. After consulting mgracik, this is not a problem in lorax, nor it is fixed. The problem is at the first line:

{{{
mount: unknown filesystem type 'hfsplus'
}}}

The machine the compose process is run on doesn't know hfsplus filesystem. That means a missing module in kernel. You have to fix that on the build machine for the compose process to finish successfully.

To keep everyone in the loop:

The rhel6 kernel does not provide a hfsplus module.
Our pungify script is run on rhel6 builders.

So, possible ways forward:

a) Make the compose not need the hfsplus module
b) Get the hfsplus module added to the rhel6 kernel.

a) isn't an option; it's the only thing that will work.

b) is a really long term option.

Additional options:

1) Add a hfsplus kmod to the builders (via the FI repo).

Package at: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3847773

2) Change the branched compose to use a non-builder Fedora box for these composes.

3) Spin up a virt image (wheee)

We've done #1 at the moment... we'll see how well that works.

i reran pungify to make sure it was working with the kmod package installed on the builders, It did and I synced the images to the primary mirror.
