Hi there!
I'm currently trying to remaster my TinyCore version.
But I get some weird error.
(https://oovy.dev/ezremaster-error.png)
I already tried reinstalling tinycore and trying it again, I also used different hardware.
I just can't get it to work. Can somebody help me?

Wow.., That picture has really bad quality, here's a HQ version:

What does it say in the ezremaster log?

Here's the log file
Had to attach it as zip because too large...
-
The error seems to be at the end of the log:
+ sudo advdef -z4 /tmp/ezremaster/image/boot/core.gz
Error writing on /tmp/ezremaster/image/boot/core.gz [at void convert_gz(adv_fz*, adv_fz*):redef.cc:455]
+ exit 23
Did you run out of ram perhaps? Do you have the latest advcomp extension?

I don't think that RAM is the problem... This VM has 8GB of RAM... I'll check. And try again afterwards. I'll get back to you.

So I just checked. It seems like RAM really isn't the problem. I recorded the whole process and there was always enough RAM available.
The newest version of advcomp is installed.
Any other ideas? :(

Hi oovy
Two thoughts. What does this return:
ls -l /tmp/ezremaster/image/boot/core.gz
Is it read only?
What does this return:
df /tmp/
Maybe /tmp is running out of room?
From the advdef man page:
Limitations
The advdef program cannot be used to recompress huge files because it needs to allocate memory for both the complete compressed and uncompressed data.

ls -l returns -r--r--r-- which is read only i guess?
/tmp is 81% used (1.2 out of 1.5GB used) eventhough it's on a 2 tb hdd...
what shall I do now?

Yes.
... /tmp is 81% used (1.2 out of 1.5GB used) eventhough it's on a 2 tb hdd...
Actually /tmp is part of the RAM filesystem, just like /usr, /var, /bin, /etc ....

So, what do I have to do now? How do I give more space to /tmp? And am I just able to change the permissions of core.gz?

I'm having the same problem!
because everything runs on iSO (RAM).
the system resets itself,
and log files are deleted with PC shutdown.
so I can't send error report.

If you have no free space in /tmp you can move some directories to harddisk or USB stick and symlink them to /tmp (fat32 filesystem in your harddrive may not work with this). BTW is it possible to use isomaster.tcz to remaster Tinycorelinux iso?

Copy the log files to a usb stick.before you reboot.

You can give it more space, you could also remove that line from the script, but I believe ezremaster lets you choose the temporary working dir early on. So you can pick a dir on your HD, instead of /tmp in RAM.

Actually I never tried to do that. I'll check if isoremaster works.

With isomaster.tcz tcz files can be moved to where it should be.
