I apologize that the live stream turned out so poorly. This is a commentary of what I'm working on and ideas for moving forward. I also go through a couple builds and try to troubleshoot issues I'm working through.
I will try to improve my streams. What happened to this was unexpected. My next videos will be better. I will continue to do these. Thanks again community for your support on this. Normally, this video would have gone for a couple hours and had some live coding as well as better commentary. I wasn't prepared for 2 hours to be flushed.
Quick update based on results from live-coding.
I was able to get the build to function; however, now I am left with two images that need to be run together.
image-boot.isoimage.rawWhen I run just the ISO, a hard drive cannot be mounted and loaded into initramfs. qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom image-boot.iso -m 4096
The result is:
If I assign both -hda and -cdrom
qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom image-boot.iso -hda image.raw -m 4096
this is when it's able to boot.
The best thing I can think to do at this point is continue to mess with the iso element to produce a proper initramfs that can boot on its own with isolinux, or try to image a usb drive from the image.raw and image-boot.iso images.
