same steps work just fine on a HD. Why the failure on the SSD drive?

I am starting on a fresh install of the 1611 Cubietruck image. This time I am running on a Cubietruck, not a Cubieboard2.

I have the cubietruck uboot on a mSD card and the image installed on a Kingston 240Gb SSD drive.

I boot up, log in with root with the default password. All I do is change /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf with:

sed -i -e "s/enforcing=0/enforcing=1/w /dev/stdout" /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

Note that https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/AltArch/Arm32 is wrong saying:

If you want to switch to enforcing mode, you'll have so to first modify the following files /etc/sysconfig/selinux : change from "permissive" to "enforcing"

• rpi2/rpi3 : /boot/cmdline.txt: change "enforce=0" to "enforcing=1"
• other image/board[s]: /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf : change the "enforce=0" to "enforce=1"

It is enforcing=0 on the Cubietruck image. Then:

touch /.autorelabel

and

reboot

I get the log message:

[ 18.453896] brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_htclk: HT Avail timeout (1000000): clkctl 0x50

*** Warning -- SELinux targeted policy relabel is required. *** Relabeling could take a very long time, depending on file *** system size and speed of hard drives. [ 54.365478] random: nonblocking pool is initialized Warning: Skipping the following R/O filesystems: /sys/fs/cgroup

Then after some time, it goes through a shutdown, reboots and comes back to this state. Then reboots again. I have tried this twice.

Next I will try on my Cubieboard2, that I will have to take down from its testing position for this test. If it still fails, I will try a HD. These commands have worked for my on the C2 with a HD and a mSD card. I don't recall if I have tried them on a CT.

But any thoughts are appreciated!

thanks

Hello Bob,

I've have a running CentOS (update) on my Cubietruck with selinux enabled. SELINUX=enforcing in /etc/selinu/config and enforcing=1 in /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

Greetings Andreas

I have been running for some time as well. I just tested the SSD card on the C2 and it failed the same way. I grabbed a 120Gb HD off my workbench and am now installing the base image to test it. This will see if the problem is the SSD card.

What steps did you take, if you noted them down? I am doing this WITHOUT expanding the partition sizes. I want to have a base image that I can save for a checkpoint without taking up a lot of disk space.
