Ubuntu 14.04 Uncompression Error System Halted

System haltedThis happens with both the primary and the fallback.I've deleted the boot partition and recreated it and I still get the same error.I've modified /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and changed the compression type to "cat", same error. I've also tried setting the compression to gzip, bzip2.After booting from the ISO and chrooting, I've tried examining the initramfs files with:mkdir /tmp/initramfs; uncompression error system halted centos cd /tmp/initramfs; cat /boot/initramfs-linux.img | cpio -i mkdir /tmp/initramfs-fallback; cd /tmp/initramfs-fallback; cat /boot/initramfs-linux-fallback.img | cpio -iand in both cases had no issues uncompressing the kernels into the /tmp directory. Also had no issues uncompressing the kernels when the compression option in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf was set to gzip and bzip2.I've tried installing and reinstalling multiple kernels from the chroot. I've tried manually generating the initramfs with mkinitcpio. The boot partition is GPT and uses syslinux.The boot options are extremely minimal:./linux ../vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/sda3 rw initrd=../initramfs-linux.imgand./linux ../vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/sda3 rw initrd=../initramfs-linux-fallback.imgAny suggestions? Extensive searching has come up short...

Apr 2011 15:40:09 -0500 Message-id: hello list,i am new here, and only a budding debian user.  i'm about 3.5 years into my gnu/linux journey and am attempting now to do some https://lists.debian.org/debian-live/2011/04/msg00097.html outreach programs for educating other people about the wonders of free software. https://trisquel.info/en/forum/uncompression-error-system-halted I am delving into a custom live system, using debian live (I find debian to be the most stable, straight forward, and inherently educational distro out there) and though I've had some successes, I am also having some fairly consistent problems. The issue right now is that uncompression error if I try to rebuild a binary-hybrid.iso after a failed attempt or a reconfiguration I consistently end up with an unbootable image.  The md5sum checks out fine and if I start over from scratch in a new directory with the same lb config and build options I will generally get an image that works.  I'm guessing that it should not uncompression error system work this way.  I may just be missing something simple, so here's a specific case: I ran lb config with a bunch of options, and tried lb build.  It failed due to a hash sum mismatch near the very end of the build.  So, I ran lb clean and then lb build again, which finished successfully this time.  I dd'ed the iso onto a USB drive, and tried booting but ended with an "uncompression error, system halt" which also happened with a failsafe boot as well.  I've had the same problem after reconfiguring an image in the same directory and building it again (perhaps this has something do do with not using the auto scripts?  i don't quite understand them).  Any help would be welcome, I've been reading the manual but am unclear on the process of reconfiguration and rebuilding.  I have only been successful if I build an image from scratch in one go.  Thank you, Grant Reply to: debian-live@lists.debian.org grant centauri (on-list) grant centauri (off-list) Follow-Ups: Re: uncompression error at boot From: Ben Armstrong

I partitioned my harddrive into ~ 45 gigabytes and 30 gigabytes. I put windows 7 on the 45 gig partition and tried to put Trisquel 6.0 on the 30 gig partition. I installed Trisquel on a usb drive a while ago and was able to boot from it before. I actually was able to install trisquel on this computer before I had windows on it. This time I booted from the usb, chose install trisquel to hdd, and selected the 30 gig partition, with "ext4" and "/". It installed on the partition but when I try to boot it, I get "Uncompression error System halted". I'm actually getting the Trisquel boot screen which lets me choose between windows and trisquel. Windows works fine but when I choose trisquel, I get the error. I tried to reboot from the usb drive so I could reinstall it, but if I try, I get the same error. I chose "install to hdd". The "Try trisquel from USB drive" option didn't work either. I tried to choose "Test memory" but nothing happened. I didn't include swap space when I installed and I wasn't connected to the internet. What happened? I thought that 3 gigabytes is enough for that. How do I solve this? Thanks for your help.

I would re-download the Trisquel iso again from your windows partition and try to reinstall again. You may need to use a decent usb creator to recreate your image.
