FS#41 - Activate ATAPI from boot with liveCD

Boot from liveCD is impossible on laptop Dell E1505/6400 with SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A.

All any choice of boot menu fails with the following message :

Loading, please wait...
[: missing ]
[: missing ]
unifing: base ls: /DSSCD/cdrom/xserver/: No such file or directory
ls: /DSSCD/cdrom/deliver: No such file or directory
overall
Something wrong with the image mounting.

BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3-3) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
/bin/sh: can't acces tty; job control turned off
(initramfs)_

I found more indication when i tred to launch qemu, all the log will be displayed on screen (dots mean text snip):

...

Very good info! this is a good bug report :)

I have ear more persons about this bug, but I don’t have care very for now (sorry lol) because this bug is actually fixed on the new versions of DSS, I just need to upgrade it (needs a big work), well, you just need to wait the next release (of a dev. version, for example) where in the changelog say’s about DSS updated, I hope to fix it soon...

Its time to make some tests, I have a iso of 6 mb, do you have a cd-rw for try it works ? can you posible to connect in IRC of Elive ?

I have the same problem with same HW.

Admin

The bug is fixed, version 0.5.4 tested and working good (test version, not released officially), maybe i can build a development version before or directly release the update of the stable one (revolution)

That’d be really really great!!!!
Thank you very much!!!

I’ve just tried version 0.5.4 and i can boot Elive !! :)

For me, this bug is closed.
Thank’s a lot Thanatermesis !
