Resolv.conf is missing

[lmaudio]

Resolv.conf is missing in remastered system after install. DNS/Internetconnection is broken through this.

I am using Linux Mint 21.1 MATE, remastersys 4.9, dist-mode

Internetconnection was working before remastering and resolv.conf there..

[lmaudio]

Resolv.conf and its folder is missing in /etc of the livesystem too! So it was maybe not copied in distmode?!?

What should i edit in remastersys, to avoid this next time?? Because the rest works really fine and stable. Help please.

Something with systemd!?

Hey sorry, i have to know: is the resolv.conf or systemd "touched" by remastersys distro-mode or not! I need this information to find a way to fix it next time..

Hey, I really appreciate all the bugs you've been reporting. Thank you for that. But I have a life that pays my bills. Remastersys is just a hobby for me. I'm not going to quickly answer every question you ask. I won't be at your complete disposal.

That said, you can open the /home/remastersys folder and look for the dummysys folder. If you want be sure that all your custom system settings will be in live media, create a CDFS first (dist mode with cdfs option), then look inside dummysys folder, edit, copy and paste everything you want manually, then use dist mode with iso option.

You can open a file browser as Nautilus/Nemo with root privileges and browse dummysys (because all files there belongs to root). Or, you can chroot (like CUBIC does).

I will take a look in all issues, someday. Testing remastersys is hard: create dozens of images, loading VMs, running ISO, test installation etc.

If something is not copied, there should be an issue in /bin/remastersys script (this is the main script). I will take a look there. But, for now, you should check manually dummysys.

From remastersys script, lines167-172:

   if [ "$1" = "dist" ]; then
        rm -f $WORKDIR/dummysys/etc/X11/xorg.conf
        rm -f $WORKDIR/dummysys/etc/resolv.conf
        rm -f $WORKDIR/dummysys/etc/hosts
        rm -f $WORKDIR/dummysys/etc/hostname
    fi

So yes, you are right, it's copied, but deleted in dist mode. So, for now, first use sudo remastersys dist cdfs, then copy these 4 files and paste them manually in dummysys, then use sudo remastersys dist iso. These options are also available in GUI, of course.

Thank's for answering and taking your time. Yesss/many images, long nights too. As we build last image in distmode there should be cdfs/dummysys to edit.

But files like /etc/resolv.conf are systemlinked e g.to systemd and just copy n paste as root breaks that!?

I will comment the lines out in script and do it again.

Last night i build 4 images to test..#marathon

[lmaudio]

Comment the lines out (167-171) brings the result of a crashing remastersys script. Should i delete this files or how to fix it right?

[nerun]

I am out of ideas...

[lmaudio]

Should i comment it out or just deleting the lines in script you wrote above?

Both have the same effect.
