ezremaster fails - mount: could not find any free loop device

[redwolf]

I decided to try the ezremaster tool today, but I'm getting the following error:

Code: [Select]

+ sudo mount /mnt/dm-1/craig/ISOs/tinycore/4.3/CorePlus-current.iso /tmp/ezremaster/mnt
mount: could not find any free loop device
+ exit 16

I'm using Micro Core 64 version 4.3. 
losetup -a shows only 219 loop devices currently in use.
losetup -f returns "losetup: could not find any free loop device".

P.S.
I have tried adding max_loop=256 without any success, though it sounds like this is no longer needed anyway.

Try using busybox mount.

Is utillinux-ng installed?

[redwolf]

Thanks Gerald!  busybox mount successfully mounts the iso.  Yes, util-linx.tcz in installed On Boot.  About to reboot without it and test again.

[redwolf]

That was it.  All good now.  Thanks! :-)

ezremaster should be using busybox mount, yes.

I'll have ezremaster explicitly use busybox mount in the next release of ezremaster.

Thanks,
Brian

This has been fixed in the latest version of ezremaster.   Thanks again for reporting.
