kickstart problem in stage2

[Rajesh Kumar T V]

Hi all,

I am having problem while using anaconda installer.for my custom build

Following are the images used :
a) Fedora-12-ppc-DVD.iso
b) kernel-2.6.32.26-175.fc12.src.rpm

I am able to build the install.img successfully and using nfs mount for
getting the images.
I am able to mount successfully. My output in the shell prompt for the mount
command
bash-4.0#
mount

rootfs on / type rootfs
(rw,relatime)

/proc on /proc type proc
(rw,relatime)

/dev on /dev type tmpfs
(rw,relatime)

/dev/pts on /dev/pts type devpts
(rw,relatime,mode=600,ptmxmode=000)
/sys on /sys type sysfs
(rw,relatime)

none on /tmp type tmpfs
(rw,relatime)

192.168.66.2:/opt/ngin/rpmBuild/images/images on /mnt/stage2 type nfs4
(ro,noatime,vers=4,rsize=8192,wsize)
bash-4.0#

In the kickstart text screen after I specify the server name and path it
fails giving the following error:

12:20:26 INFO    : starting STEP_STAGE2
12:21:33 ERROR   : failed to mount loopback device /dev/loop0 on
/mnt/runtime as /mnt/stage2//install.img


I am using the following patch for sqfs, after extracting
a) unsquashfs -d "$D/sqfs" "$D/iso.dir/images/install.img"
b) patch -d "$D/sqfs" -p1 < "$D/sqfs.patch"
c) mksquashfs "$D/sqfs" install.img -all-root

>From the discussions in the internet, I understand some patch is required.
I am not sure which patch will help me fix this.
Please let me know how to cross this stage.

Thanks,
Rajesh
