Problem with setup an image on MAC USER: unbound variable

[EnvironCMO]

Hello,

I am currently having big problems setting up an image under MAC. I have done the following steps:

1. git clone https://github.com/guysoft/CustomPiOS.git Feedback: Clone to 'CustomPiOS'... remote: Enumerating objects: 5148, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (1121/1121), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (404/404), done. remote: Total 5148 (delta 774), reused 862 (delta 685), pack-reused 4027 (from 1) Receive objects: 100% (5148/5148), 1.03 MiB | 12.80 MiB/s, done. Resolve differences: 100% (2773/2773), done.2nd command: ./src/make_custom_pi_os -g test Feedback: Settings: making dstro in test variant: raspios_lite_armhf sed: 1: “config”: command c expects \ followed by text

After that I wanted to switch to Docker

An alternative way I also tried: create a docker-compose.yml file in the src directory

version: '3.6' services: custompios: image: guysoft/custompios:devel container_name: mydistro-builder privileged: true volumes: - ./:/os_make devices: - /dev/loop-control tty: true

-> docker-compose up -d

-> docker exec -it mydistro-builder CustomPiOS/make_custom_pi_os -g /os_make/ExampleDistro

Settings: making dstro in /os_make/ExampleDistro variant: raspios_lite_armhf CustomPiOS/make_custom_pi_os: line 49: USER: unbound variable

Is this an error or is there a point by point guide to avoid running into this error

@unfixa1 Is this an advertisement? Its certainly not what I would recommend, docker is the supported method here. Give me a reason no to delete your comment not to confuse people.

@EnvironCMO Your docker compose is missing the mounts to the distruction it should go in /distro Like this:

    volumes:
      - ./:/distro

Here is a correct docker compose placed in your src folder if the "test" dir you wrote above:

services:
  custompios:
    image: guysoft/custompios:devel
    container_name: test-build
    tty: true
    restart: always
    privileged: true
    volumes:
      - ./:/distro
    devices:
      - /dev/loop-control
    # dns:
    #   - 8.8.8.8
    #   - 4.4.4.4

You called your distribution there test not ExampleDistro (command I see that in is: command: ./src/make_custom_pi_os -g test)

Also note something about mac - dont run this in the /tmp folder. I just tried and found the mount didn't work because of that. make sure you are in your home directory or somewher that is not /tmp

Hey, I just followed this thread and seemed to get this working by setting

 environment:
      - USER=root

in the docker file under custompios

full docker-compose as follows

services:
  custompios:
    image: guysoft/custompios:devel
    container_name: test-build
    tty: true
    restart: always
    privileged: true
    environment:
      - USER=root
    volumes:
      - ./:/distro
    devices:
      - /dev/loop-control

then running

cd CustomPiOS
./make_custom_pi_os -g /distro/testing

from inside the docker container

@sharpn Strange, the user is already root. No need to set it. what error do you get without it?

[sharpn]

it seems to be because this line is expecting an environment variable called USER it would probably fix it by changing it to chown -R "(id -un")":"$(id -gn")" "${DEST}". Which would use the configured one inside the container. Or setting ENV USER=root when the docker image is built

[guysoft]

Hey, It guess we could change it to

chown -R "$(id -un )":"$(id -gn )" "${DEST}"

I am not sure if it will break it for people in another way though. Since the user group ID might be different than the ones in the container
