blkid Error During Boot

[lafrana]

Hello all. I just put Tinycore on a usb pendrive. When I boot I get a    blkid: option requires an argument --t
along with the default blkid help screen. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks, Art

Sounds like a bad waitusb= option.
Show us the boot options included in the bootloader config file.

My config is:
DEFAULT tinycore
LABEL tinycore
KERNEL /boot/bzImage
APPEND initrd=/boot/tinycore.gz quiet  waitusb=5: tce=
I never modified it from the default install.

Remove the ":"

Edit: and either specify a device after "tce=" or remove the code entirely.

I originally booted from CD and used the command line usbinstall to install to USB stick, which produced the following in extlinux.conf (I added noswap when prompted for additional boot codes):

DEFAULT tinycore
LABEL tinycore
KERNEL /boot/bzImage
APPEND initrd=/boot/tinycore.gz quiet noswap waitusb=5:UUID="b80d8c4b-1dc8-4bc6-8c45-7b47ba815e0e" tce=UUID="b80d8c4b-1dc8-4bc6-8c45-7b47ba815e0e"


It looks like for some reason the UUID parts weren't included in lafrana's config file code.

Thanks for the help. Problem solved.
