getting this when booting cros: terminate EFI services

[Adam Kearn]

Whenever I try to boot my image I always get this screen

"Trying to terminate EFI services again"

The laptop I am using to boot the image is:  http://www.expertreviews.co.uk/laptops/52969/asus-x550c-review     (scroll down the page for specs)

What do you think is happing??

Thanks

assuming everything is correct...

..if you're booting unverified UEFI image A try adding 

efi=noruntime

and maybe

earlyprintk=efi

to your bootparam kernel commandline

this probably won't work with grub without updating grub.

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.14/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html

...or whatever kernel version you're using

[Adam Kearn]

Hey, Carmelo

Thanks for your reply.  I'm just waiting for my VM to finish building.

But I will try out your suggestion as soon as it has done.

It looks like it's building an image using the 4_4 kernel (top line)  will those bootparam's still work? 

[Carmelo Carbonara]

I don't think it will.. regardless of the kernel version but you can try it and see. I had to go right to 4.14 because of my hardware but I also had to modify the kernel config and some other stuff

I just tried on a plain vanilla stick and (kernel 4.4.6X) and it hangs...with the additional bootparams.

This is strictly for UEFI not legacy BIOS, legacy BIOS boots no problem on all my class 0 machines

If you can, update grub after modifying grub.cfg in the /efi/boot directory, and try again

Also that laptop might need to have the OS selected in the BIOS  as non-Windows or Other...and there may be other acpi_xx boot params that might help you

Maybe this needs a bug report about build's default kernel config (re CONFIG_EFI_xxx) or there is some way of setting this at build time..., i'm not sure, 

Once you get it to work, it's nice!

[Adam Kearn]

Hey,  My VM has been running since 5pm (yesterday) to 7pm (today) and it's still building...  It doesn't normally take this long.  I am running:  ./build_packages --board=${BOARD}

Has something gone wrong or is it just being slow?

I gave it 8GB of RAM.  

Should I try using the "4.14" if this doesn't work? and are these the correct commands to do so?

export BOARD=amd64-generic

cros_workon --board=${BOARD} start chromeos-kernel-4_14

./setup_board --board=${BOARD}
./build_packages --board=${BOARD}
./build_image --board=${BOARD} --noenable_rootfs_verification test

[Carmelo Carbonara]

yeah not just the ram it's the cores too but, ./build_packages takes quite a while now...looks like it's doing more local compilation.

I think ./setup_board is included in ./build_packages but run it by itself anyway; they don't mention this in the new documentation

the kernel for the latest stable release is still chromeos-kernel-4_4...without changing the build source tree files etc for other kernel versions.

I would stick with the stable version for now...you just want to get it to boot...maybe some hardware might not work and it may not boot with the stock kernel config.

build the image and try it, use the bootparams previously mentioned; if you have to modify the kernel config, it'll be easier with 4_4.

If some of your devices don't work and you have all the firmware and modules, consider kernel 4_14

to modify the kernel config for 4.4 as user, cd /build/amd64-generic/var/cache/portage/..the kernel directory

type make --help; you just want to make bzImage..... copy it to your USB and replace vmlinuz.A with it or change the grub.cfg file to test booting with bzImage

Sorry that I took a couple of days to get back to you.  But I ran the repo init and repo sync and while I was waiting for those commands to finish I sore this.

I think having all those files was causing it to be soooo slow.

How did I get them in the first place?
