mount fails on tc-load

Hi Everyone,

I used the instructions in the Tiny Core Book to create an extension. Since I already had a build tree, I only needed this command.

$ mksquashfs app.tcz /tmp/buildroot/

This tcz file was copied to my tiny core VM, but I was unable to install it.

$ tce-load -i fapp.tcz
mount: mounting /dev/loop47 on /tmp/tcloop/app failed: Invalid argument

I'm using the lastest Tiny Core Plus image. Is there something I'm missing here?

gerald_clark:
You should not be including the while build tree.
You should be constructing the usr/local tree structure for your app in a work directory, and squashing that.

Also your problem description has inconsistent naming for the application.
You use app in some lines, and fapp in another.

ormris:
Hi. Thanks for the reply.

The my buildroot contains only the files that are installed.

The fapp was a mistype in this forum post. I didn't actually type that in the command line.

Is there anything else I need to do, other than building the install tree and squashing it?

Thanks!
Matthew

gerald_clark:
Did you copy the tcz to /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional ?

ormris:
Yes. I attempted to use the GUI application installer first.

Thanks!
Matthew
