What is the exact cause of "Creating empty files"?

[최준열]

Hello, I'm making my own ubuntu distribution with your Reconstructor tool.

Your tool worked great until January 6th, but it is making "creating empty files" error continuously after that day. The odd thing is the fact that "configuration" never changed!!

My error is just the same one with this guy's error -> http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/index.php?option=com_joomlaboard&Itemid=1&func=view&id=949&catid=3

In January 6th, I finished building my DYNA LINUX 1.0 with your reconstructor 2.8.1 with following configuration:

1. I changed USplash boot up screen with the one I made. I didn't use reconstructor's Usplash generator.

2. I changed Wallpaper to the one I made.

3. I changed GDM to custom one which I downloaded from the Internet

4. I added medibuntu source list and registered medibuntu-key.gpg for that.

5. I checked all of 4 boxes on the sources setting screen. (you know, something like ubuntu bla bla repository....)

6. And this is my APT setting string:

openoffice.org-l10n-ko openoffice.org-help-ko language-support-translations-ko language-pack-gnome-ko language-pack-gnome-ko-base language-pack-ko language-pack-ko-base language-support-fonts-ko language-support-input-ko language-support-ko openoffice.org-l10n-ja openoffice.org-help-ja language-support-translations-ja language-pack-gnome-ja language-pack-gnome-ja-base language-pack-ja language-pack-ja-base language-support-fonts-ja language-support-input-ja language-support-ja ubuntu-restricted-extras gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mpegdemux gstreamer0.10-schroedinger gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse vlc inkscape wine flashplugin-nonfree w32codecs

The configuration above was just OK in Jan. 6th but now I cannot go on because of creating empty files error. I already have installed squashfs-tools_3.3-7_i386.deb but reconstructor still fails. 

How do you think?

The "creating empty files" message is generated by Mksquashfs because
it cannot read some files. This is a file permissions/ownership
problem, either change the ownership/permissions of the files, or run
Mksquashfs from a different user (such as root).
