[Solved] Gnome won't start in remastered Install ISO

lucas2santos · 2019-08-08 19:39:02

Hi,

I'm remastering the Install ISO in order to include Xorg and Gnome and be able to test Arch Linux around different machines. All worked fine when I only updated the packages and added the desired ones. But, I decided to make a... let's say... "deeper" remastering, in order to get a smaller ISO. Thus, I installed in the ISO only the minimal that I considered necessary to system works, but I think that is something missing.

I tried the "deep remastered" ISO in VirtualBox. It boots OK, all what I've tested in console/terminal worked fine, but when I do a "startx", X won't open.

This is my xinitrc:

$ cat ~/.xinitrc

  userresources=$HOME/.Xresources
  usermodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
  sysresources=/etc/X11/xinit/.Xresources
  sysmodmap=/etc/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap

  # merge in defaults and keymaps

  if [ -f $sysresources ]; then







  xrdb -merge $sysresources

  fi

  if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
  xmodmap $sysmodmap
  fi

  if [ -f "$userresources" ]; then







  xrdb -merge "$userresources"

  fi

  if [ -f "$usermodmap" ]; then
  xmodmap "$usermodmap"
  fi

  # start some nice programs

  if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ] ; then
  for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/?*.sh ; do
  [ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
  done
  unset f
  fi

  #twm &
  #xclock -geometry 50x50-1+1 &

  #xterm -geometry 80x20+494-0 &
  #exec xterm -geometry 80x66+0+0 -name login
  export GDK_BACKEND=x11
  exec gnome-session

It looks like a Gnome issue, 'cause I installed TWM and I have no problems to start it. Possibly is something missing, but I have no idea what.

--------------------------

Here is how I remastered the ISO:

1. First I've extracted it exactly as in said Wiki:

# mkdir /mnt/archiso
# mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/to/archISO /mnt/archiso
# cp -a /mnt/archiso ~/customiso
# cd ~/customiso/arch/i686

2. Instead unsquash airootfs.sfs, I just created a new empty squashfs-root directory:

# mkdir squashfs-root

3. Then, I used 'pacstrap' command to make a brand new install and chrooted to squashfs-root directory:

# pacstrap squashfs-root base
# arch-chroot squashfs-root /bin/bash

4. Commented out 'CheckSpace' on /etc/pacman.conf file in order to be able to use pacman in chroot:

# vi /etc/pacman.conf
# cat /etc/pacman.conf | grep CheckSpace
  #CheckSpace

5. Configurated locale, in order to avoid errors and warnings in mkinicpio:

# vi /etc/locale.gen
# locale-gen
# cat > /etc/locale.conf << "EOF"
  > LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8
  > LANGUAGE=pt_BR:pt_PT:pt:en_US
  > LC_TIME=pt_BR.UTF-8
  > EOF

6. Made the necessary changes in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf:

# vi /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
# cat /etc/mkinitcpio.conf | grep HOOKS
  # HOOKS
  # This is the most important setting in this file.  The HOOKS control the
  # order in which HOOKS are added.  Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
  #    HOOKS=(base)
  #    HOOKS=(base udev autodetect block filesystems)
  #    HOOKS=(base udev block filesystems)
  #    HOOKS=(base udev block mdadm encrypt filesystems)
  #    HOOKS=(base udev block lvm2 filesystems)
  HOOKS=(base udev memdisk archiso_shutdown archiso archiso_loop_mnt archiso_pxe_common archiso_pxe_nbd archiso_pxe_http archiso_pxe_nfs archiso_kms block filesystems keyboard)

7. Installed additional packages:

# pacman-key --init
# pacman-key --populate archlinux
# pacman -S \
  > nbd \
  > mkinitcpio-nfs-utils \
  > syslinux \
  > archiso \
  > sudo \
  > acpid \
  > intel-ucode \
  > amd-ucode \
  > alsa-utils \
  > networkmanager \
  > xorg-server \
  > xorg-xinit \
  > xorg-xinput \
  > xorg-setxkbmap \
  > xf86-video-ati \
  > xf86-video-amdgpu \
  > xf86-video-intel \
  > xf86-video-nouveau \
  > xf86-video-vmware \
  > xf86-video-fbdev \
  > xf86-video-vesa \
  > gnome-session \
  > gnome-backgrounds \
  > gnome-control-center \
  > gnome-tweaks \
  > gnome-terminal \
  > gnome-system-monitor \
  > nautilus \
  > gedit \
  > firefox \
  > flashplugin \
  > chromium \
  > pepper-flash

8. Made all necessary configurations:

# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Brazil/East /etc/localtime
# hwclock --systohc
# cat > /etc/vconsole.conf << "EOF"
  > KEYMAP=br-abnt2
  > EOF
# cat > /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf << "EOF"
  > Section "InputClass"
  >         Identifier "system-keyboard"
  >         MatchIsKeyboard "on"
  >         Option "XkbLayout" "br"
  > EndSection
  > EOF
# cat > /etc/hostname << "EOF"
  > archlive
  > EOF
# cat << "EOF" >> /etc/hosts
  > 127.0.0.1        localhost
  > ::1              localhost
  > 127.0.1.1        archlive.localdomain  archlive
  > EOF
# systemctl enable NetworkManager.service

9. Added a new user and made necessary changes in its .xinitrc:

# useradd -m user -G wheel
# visudo
# su - user -c 'cp /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.xinitrc'
# su - user -c 'vi ~/.xinitrc'

10. Created a list of installed packages, cleaned the pacman cache and exited from chroot:

# LANG=C pacman -Sl | awk '/\[installed\]$/ {print $1 "/" $2 "-" $3}' > /pkglist.txt
# pacman -Scc
# exit

11. Then I followed all the steps from the Wiki to generate the new ISO:

# mv squashfs-root/boot/vmlinuz-linux ~/customiso/arch/boot/i686/vmlinuz
# mv squashfs-root/boot/initramfs-linux.img ~/customiso/arch/boot/i686/archiso.img
# rm squashfs-root/boot/initramfs-linux-fallback.img
# mv squashfs-root/pkglist.txt ~/customiso/arch/pkglist.i686.txt
# rm airootfs.sfs
# mksquashfs squashfs-root airootfs.sfs
# sha512sum airootfs.sfs > airootfs.sha512
# cd ../..
# genisoimage -l -r -J -V "ARCH_201908" -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -c isolinux/boot.cat -o ../arch-custom.iso ./

As I said before, the ISO boots normally in VirtualBox, but Gnome won't open. What did I wrong?

Hmm, yes, if it can't open /dev/fb0 then that'll stop x in its tracks for most if not all configurations I'd expect. Have you got one, an what are its permissions? Mine for example:

$ ls -l /dev/fb0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 29, 0 Aug  8 15:28 /dev/fb0

If you have something different then I'm still not sure what would cause that, and what the best course of action is, but it's worth knowing I think.

lucas2santos · 2019-08-08 21:42:10

Same here:

$ ls -l /dev/fb0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 29, 0 Aug  8 17:38 /dev/fb0

Thus, I installed in the ISO only the minimal that I considered necessary to system works, but I think that is something missing.

I just found what was missing and solved the problem!

I am even embarrassed to say it, but the problem was that gnome-shell package was missing! I've made a mistake and installed gnome-session instead (I've confused the names).

To find out this, I decided to do a 'pacman -Q' in a working ISO and in my current ISO and then do a difference check. Thus I realized that gnome-shell wasn't installed.

Good to hear you've got it working, and it makes sense that missing gnome-shell is kind of critical to a gnome 3 setup. I reckon that's a singularly unhelpful error in the log though, having a working framebuffer shouldn't depend on what shell you're using, but thankfully you didn't have to rely on that to diagnose and fix your problem.

andreas_baumann · 2019-08-09 11:11:29

Well, the ISO is not really a live system, also not in the upstream ISO (can you confirm that Gnome and friends
run in the 64-bit version of the ISO?).

The ISO is more for installation only, besides: who wants _NOT_ to put Archlinux permanently on his machine.. ;-)

lucas2santos · 2019-08-09 14:58:02

Yes, Gnome runs fine in both 64-bit and 32-bit versions of ISO. Even not being really a live system, the remastered ISO worked well as a live system. With it, I could quickly test how Archlinux and the WM/DM would behave in certain hardware specs before permanently installing the system on that machines.
