failed to find MBR identifier

[Sergei Lopatin]

Hi!

Some update for openSUSE 13.1 broke my kiwi iso image. I use update-13.1 repo for my image, and now it doesn't load.
I get this error: Failed to find MBR identifier.
If I remove update-13.1 repo from my config.xml, all works fine.

Hi,

Hmm, that's new to me

Could you boot with kiwidebug=1 and send the file /var/log/boot.kiwi
so I can check better why this is the case.

Thanks

Regards,
Marcus

there are no block devices on your machine, no cdrom and no hard
disk devices. no idea why this is the case. The kernel does not complain
and udev was started at UDEVD_PID=255. Thus either your system really
does not have these devices which I think can't be true or something
is completely broken. A sinple

kiwi --build suse-13.1-JeOS -d /tmp/myimage

just works.

You can try to boot with kiwidebug=1 and check in the debug shell
if you can find something, maybe in dmesg or check if the driver modules
exists in /lib/modules/...

something must be very wrong

I am currently getting this same issue. It starts off with "Searching for boot device in Application ID..." then it ends with "Failed to find MBR"

I have a hard disk in my server so I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Has anyone else had this issue or a solution for this issue?
