"ERROR: Missing required bootloader file" trying to install to mmc

[elkhunter]

I'm trying to install to the internal mmc but if fails at the end with:

ERROR: Missing required bootloader file.

This is right after it downloads boot.scr.uimg. Any ideas?

[omgmog]

The error is caused by the vbutil_kernel command, and it's complaining that boot.scr.uimg isn't found, but it should have been downloaded from http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/exynos/boot.scr.uimg by the script.

Are you sure that:

a) the boot.scr.uimg exists
b) the boot.scr.uimg downloaded fully

[elkhunter]

I see boot.scr.uimg under both /boot/ and /tmp/root/boot/

[elkhunter]

I finally got it installed. I manually ran the vbutil_kernel command from /tmp/root/boot/ and added the --bootloader boot.scr.uimg parameter, then ran the dd.

The other issue I ran into was after boot I couldn't login as root so I had to re-boot from usb and manually edit the passwd file on the emmc.

Now to figure out how to get arch/systemd to work with a hidden ssid...
