systemback dont create ISO file

If the '.sblive' file size is larger than 4 GB, the '.iso' conversion is not possible. This is a filesystem limit.
If you select a USB device (pendrive) from the list (Write target), then the selected system image can be written to it.

hi,
my sblive is 1 gb large, but I cannot create the ISO in any way...

Hi,

If there isn't enough free space in the working directory (in this case, a minimum of 2 GB), the converting isn't possible.

Understood! Thank you very much for the reply.

Hello
There is a way to create bigger iso with growisofs and so far.Maybe in the future versions?
I have some around 24 GB for using in virtualbox to emulate a BD disk like to add big folders because BSD support of guest additions is not that much.

This problem with size ISO i got too because i want not write to an usb stick direct, i have one with a lot of live images, in, created with yumi.

So it would be nice creating ISO bigger than 4GB with Systemback.

Another idea is, could Yumi detect and use sblive format?!
But this is anoother question direction --->pendrivelinux

Ok its not needed.Deleted some unneccesary files.

Yeah, but not only the - original - ISO limitation is the problem. The source problem is the big filesystem.squashfs file. If this file size is greater than 4 GB, then step over the file size limitation in some filesystems.
The various .iso-to-USB writer application works with FAT32 filesystem. The FAT32 also has with this size limitation. The Systemback uses FAT32 and ext2 (for squashfs file) filesystems when the size is too big.
But not only the storage is the problem. If using ISO with level 3 (without 4 GB size limitation), the Live system does not boot. The boot process stops when trying to mount the filesystem.squashfs file.
So your idea is not feasible.

Thx for your answer Kendek.I understand now with the squashfs.Although.Your program is a milestone with the problem "start from scratch a million time".
Coz Volatile is teaching.
Youre genius.I hope its not to offtopic if i say to send you 10 Euro today in the PP.

Hi Kendek,

I am using Systemback for my 100+ similar system installation. It's a great tool.
I am amazing to use it.

I have a small requirement.

1. I want to create periodical iso [ weekly] with existing system application through cron . How it is possible ?

2. Is "Live system create" possible by terminal command ?

3. Is there any plan in future to create ISO ( Live system ) from a central server location remotely ?

Warm regards.

Sorry, but currently the Systemback development is not running, so there is no any plan for the future. The automated Live system creation feature is not implemented, and the function is missing from the command line tool.

Hi Kendek,

Thanks for reply.

I cannot open Date & Time settings applet after installation from ISO in a new system.
Any clue ?

Warm regards
