#15816 closed bug (fixed)

Installer broken - Error: Invalid Argument

Reported by: cian Owned by: nobody
Priority: normal Milestone: R1/beta2
Component: - General Version: R1/Development
Keywords: Cc:
Blocked By: Blocking:
Platform: All

Description

Installer in hrev53991 does not even start after hitting Begin with "Error: Invalid Argument". Nothing is written to syslog and nothing to stdout except for the "skipping" messages expected

hrev53713 works - I'm testing on real hardware with CDRs so can't do a binary search between these unfortunately

Hardware is a retro Dell PIII 1Ghz/512MB RAM which has run Haiku happily for 9 years.

Same problem with hrev53995 x64 was on Sammsung E2-1800, but now with hrev53999 x64 the (Desktop-Installer) installation stops at 263 from aprox. 9200. On reboot Haiku-Bootloader starts with message "boot volume not valid". By the way: Buttons are not seen and changing the size of window just in horizontal direction possible.

If it stops at 263/9200, obviously the installation is not finished and won't work after a reboot!

comment:4 by Morbid, 5 years ago

The Installer message was: Installation complete -> reboot.

Then this is a different problem. Did you install the loader?

Created #15826 for this new problem.

Morbid, what buttons are not seen? Can you take a photo?

comment:8 by Morbid, 5 years ago

@diver: the Buttons set up Partition and start, halved after resized window horizontal, i swear. Now i can't reproduce. Did a low level format of the USB-Stick, again. Copy the hrev53999 x64 with Rufus 3.3. Install Haiku to new Be-formated HD, this time installation completed with 263/8550 and then quit button then reboot. The same as in comment #2. Turn off the PC. Turn on and choose boot from USB-Stick again. Haiku was booting direct to the Desktop (also should not be?). Start the Installer on Desktop again and "install anyway". This time 263/9300. Switching to english/german in locale, restart desktop/tracker, starting installer this time 342/11125.

UPS! Didn't see the new created ticket, sorry. Thanks for creating. Shall i move the stuff?

comment:10 by diver, 5 years ago

It would be interesting if you could reproduce layout issue with those buttons. So far I didn't manage to do so. Maybe you used some locale or did something to trigger it. The but should be there but hard to reproduce it seems.

Replying to diver:

+1, will see next installation on this PC. Hopefully i can reproduce. Thanks.

Oh, whats in my mind. First transfer from image to USB with Rufus/Win32diskimager was with formating the Stick. 600 Mbyte for Haiku, the rest unused. Second, after low level and new format with fat32 (Win10), i just copy the Image to the Stick without formating with Rufus. So the hole device, 4 Gbyte was seen in Haiku. Button Problem occurs on first transfer method. We'll see next time.
