tce-load not working

(1/1)

esj:
not sure if this is the appropriate forum but, it is a question and I hope to get an answer.

I'm working on a script to automate installation of tc inside a virtual machine but should work also on a hard drive without any problems.  It's not the goal of the script to solve all problems for all people but is a simple solution for the 90% case, getting tc installed without typing lots of commands which can be a major source of problems.

The problem I'm having is that tce-load doesn't seem to work from  the script or the command line.  If I type a command like:

tce-load -w -i grub-0.97-splash.tcz
tce-load -w -i parted.tczl

the command terminates silently and the programs have not been loaded.  Clearly I'm missing something.  I haven't found it yet in my searches of the archives and the net  so I would appreciate some help understanding what's wrong.

Be sure you run these commands as user and not root.

esj:
oh dear.  That's not good.  The script runs as root or, more correctly, from the root account because of all the other options that normally run as root.  suggestions?

maro:
you could try: sudo -u tc tce-load -w -i grub-0.97-splash.tcz
