Tried to install and got 'The source filesystem "/run/live/medium/live/filesystem.squashfs'" does not exist Using a VM and the KDEneon Developer ISO dated 05/27, I launched Calamares from Konsole instead of using the graphical launcher and it revealed this error message: filesystem not found "/run/live/medium/live/filesystem.squashfs" The file itself - filesystem.squashfs - exists on the ISO in "casper", so I created the directory "/run/live/medium/live" and symlinked to "/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs" in it. Voila, the installer ran. It still crashed at grub-install (I didn't take the time to prep the drive properly) but it did do the installation. Clearly, it seems, a Debian Calamares set up was used and not edited to work with KDEneon. Notably, this is now the THIRD time there has been a Calamares mis-configuration in the last 6 weeks or so. Previously there were typos relating to networking and one other thing I can't recall at the moment. |
