[Bug 1963725] Re: subiquity curtin apt-get update fails
I have resolved at least one variant of this problem:
My issue was I was repacking an Ubuntu ISO (24.04) to use with
autoinstall.yaml.
The problem was that when the /cdrom directory was getting mounted, the
root - i.e. /cdrom would have permissions rwx-- (0700).
This was caused by how I did the repack: since I copied the filesystem
to a temporary directory, and then built a new ISO from there, the
*root* filesystem was being stored to the disk with (0700) permissions.
For whatever reason, this only turns up in the subiquity environment
during installation, not the "Try Ubuntu" live environment.
The fix for me was to force the dir-mode when rebuilding the ISO with
Xorriso:
My xorriso command now looks like this:
xorriso -as mkisofs \
-V "$(echo "${output_iso##*/}" | cut -c -32)" \
-o "${output_iso}" \
--grub2-mbr "${work_dir}/boot_hybrid.img" \
--protective-msdos-label \
-partition_offset 16 \
--mbr-force-bootable \
-append_partition 2 28732ac11ff8d211ba4b00a0c93ec93b
"${efi_partition_img}" \
-appended_part_as_gpt \
-iso_mbr_part_type a2a0d0ebe5b9334487c068b6b72699c7 \
-c "/boot.catalog" \
-b "/boot/grub/i386-pc/eltorito.img" \
-no-emul-boot \
-boot-load-size 4 \
-boot-info-table \
--grub2-boot-info \
-eltorito-alt-boot \
-e '--interval:appended_partition_2:::' \
-no-emul-boot -J \
-dir-mode 0755 \
"${work_dir}" ; then
The key line is `-dir-mode 0755` - that fixed the problem entirely.
If you are having issues with apt-get in subiquity, *are you using a
repacked ISO?* Because that might be the problem.
IMO: subiquity should handle this situation though. It has full
permissions to control how /cdrom gets mounted and with what permissions
- it should set them wide open.

[Bug 1963725] Re: subiquity curtin apt-get update fails
I was stuck on this for awhile with 22.04.4 but it turned out to be
permissions issue on my xorriso customized image iso. Here's how I was
able to clearly see what was causing the error:
For me the error was:
2024-05-03 23:38:22,203 ERROR root:30 finish:

Which translates to this command:

I took the "--set json:reporting={"subiquity": {"type": "journald",
"identifier": "curtin_event.2237.3"}} \" part out and ran it.
I get this:
