hi,

i am on Kubuntu 6.10, trying to make an live cd iso image of my running OS.

This kind of error is recurrent when I run bootcdwrite as root:
1)
--- OUTPUT from <mkisofs -graft-points -x /home/ref/Desktop -x /media -R -b
isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4
-boot-info-table -o /var/spool/bootcd/cdimage -x /proc -x /var/spool/bootcd
-x /var/log/bootcdwrite.log -x /etc -x /var -x /tmp -x /dev -x /home -x
/root -x /etc/mtab -x /etc/cron.daily/standard -x /etc/fstab -x
/usr/share/bootcd/bootcd-run.lib /=/ /=/var/spool/bootcd/changes
/home.ro/=/home /root.ro/=/root /var.ro/=/var /etc.ro/=/etc /dev.ro/=/dev>
---
mkisofs: Permission denied. cannot open
'/sys/module/sbs/parameters/capacity_mode'
exit=13

1b) I try to solve it by:
ref at ref-desktop:~$ sudo chmod a+rwx /sys/module/sbs/parameters/capacity_mode



2) than i ask bootcdwrite to (r)edo, and the next error is:
--- (e)xit (r)edo (i)gnore --- r
Size of boot image is 4 sectors -> No emulation
mkisofs: Permission denied. cannot open
'/sys/module/sbs/parameters/update_mode'
exit=13
--- OUTPUT from <mkisofs -graft-points -x /home/ref/Desktop -x /media -R -b
isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4
-boot-info-table -o /var/spool/bootcd/cdimage -x /proc -x /var/spool/bootcd
-x /var/log/bootcdwrite.log -x /etc -x /var -x /tmp -x /dev -x /home -x
/root -x /etc/mtab -x /etc/cron.daily/standard -x /etc/fstab -x
/usr/share/bootcd/bootcd-run.lib /=/ /=/var/spool/bootcd/changes
/home.ro/=/home /root.ro/=/root /var.ro/=/var /etc.ro/=/etc /dev.ro/=/dev>
---
mkisofs: Permission denied. cannot open
'/sys/module/sbs/parameters/update_mode'
exit=13

2b) again, i solve it with:
ref at ref-desktop:~$ sudo chmod a+rwx /sys/module/sbs/parameters/update_mode


3) the next error is:
--- (e)xit (r)edo (i)gnore --- r
Size of boot image is 4 sectors -> No emulation
mkisofs: Success. cannot read from
'/sys/module/eisa_bus/parameters/disable_dev'
--- OUTPUT from <mkisofs -graft-points -x /home/ref/Desktop -x /media -R -b
isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4
-boot-info-table -o /var/spool/bootcd/cdimage -x /proc -x /var/spool/bootcd
-x /var/log/bootcdwrite.log -x /etc -x /var -x /tmp -x /dev -x /home -x
/root -x /etc/mtab -x /etc/cron.daily/standard -x /etc/fstab -x
/usr/share/bootcd/bootcd-run.lib /=/ /=/var/spool/bootcd/changes
/home.ro/=/home /root.ro/=/root /var.ro/=/var /etc.ro/=/etc /dev.ro/=/dev>
---
mkisofs: Success. cannot read from
'/sys/module/eisa_bus/parameters/disable_dev'

3b) and I solve it with:
ref at ref-desktop:~$ sudo chmod a+rwx
/sys/module/eisa_bus/parameters/disable_dev

This last one appeared six times in a row, and i cant solve it giving
permissions...

Can anyone help me on this?
thanks,
gk
