similar to: [extlinux] Failed to load ldlinux.c32 with btrfs subvolume

I am new to syslinux/extlinux. Can I boot from a linux btrfs subvolume? I am getting "Failed to load ldlinux.c32" when I attempt to boot from a btrfs subvolume. Setup: 1) I have a USB disk with one partition. The partition is marked "active". 2) I make a btrfs filesystem with "mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdd1". I mount the partiton and execute "btrfs su create root".

The algorithm for btrfs subvolume search seems to be completely braindead, and at least in the current Linux kernels there are ioctls

I am a relative newcomer to using extlinux. I am running Fedora 20 which means I am using syslinux 4.05. When I noticied that all of your documentation said that booting off ext234 and btrfs was supported, I gave it a try. Indeed, this does work with the boot files and the extlinux directory installed into the btrfs (root) volume. Has any thought been given to supporting supporting

Hello there I built development version of syslinux from git 6.04-pre3-3-(sometag) and I am trying to boot a slackware-current system with it. I do not use a separated partition for `/boot`. It's just `/dev/sda1` here for `/` and `/boot` is just a folder. I simply use `mbr.bin` against a DOS partition table and the first partition having the bootable flag. With this layout, the only

Thank you for your answer. I need to correct some information from my previous post: booting from `/` did not work either. I just assumed it did based on previous experience. But with that successful build on development branch, it did not either. > I would suggest trying first the official binaries that are already > included in the official distribution archive (6.03-pre1).

This fixes the issue I had come across with the default subvolume not being set/used on btrfs when isntalling via `extlinux --install /boot/syslinux`.

Merge btrfs_read_adv and xfs_read_adv into a single generic function ext_read_adv and split ext_write_adv_offset out of ext_write_adv. Use those new functions in rewrite_boot_image and btrfs_install_file where it is actually hardcoded.

Due to delayed allocation feature on XFS filesystems, a write is not guaranteed to flushed out to the underlying file system after crash or something else - so we need to make sure that ldlinux.sys is installed correctly in the mounted filesystem.

I was looking through some of the archives and notice a patch submitted to implement: btrfs subvolume show <path-to-subvolume> command. I also noticed that is does not appear to be in the git. This looks like a useful capability. I was trying to find out what the UUID was for a newly created subvolume and have not found out how to do that. Gene -- To unsubscribe from this

Hello, today I upgraded from Syslinux 4.06 to to Syslinux 5.00. But now the system won't boot anymore and I get the message Failed to load ldlinux.c32 Boot failed: please change disks and press a key to continue What I have done: 1) Installed Syslinux 5.00 2) Reinstalled "mbr.bin" to /dev/sda and /dev/sdb using dd bs=440 count=1 conv=notrunc

Hi. petrb@bots-bnr1:/mnt$ btrfs subvolume delete ext2_saved/ Delete subvolume ''/mnt/ext2_saved'' ERROR: cannot delete ''/mnt/ext2_saved'' this is not really very descriptive. It would be really cool if it told me why it can''t delete it. For example: Permission denied. Cannot delete ... Disk write error. Cannot delete Descriptive error messages

Alex pointed out the consequences after a transaction is not committed when a subvolume is deleted, so in case of a crash before an actual commit happens will let the subvolume reappear.
