SQUASHFS: Unable to read xattr id index table
Hi,
I am attempting to install Fedora 25 on an HP Laptop. Here's what I did so far:
- Disabled secure boot in the BIOS. Made sure, that the USB stick is on top in the boot order.
- Created a bootable USB stick using
dd if=Fedora-Workstation-Live-x8664-26Alpha-1.7 of=/dev/sdb
- Booted from the USB stick. This works partially: The bootloader menu appears, and I can select Troubleshooting/Start Fedora Workstation Live 25 in basic graphics mode. (I tried the default start initially, but terminated that attempt, when nothing happened after quite some time.)
After a while, the following message appears:
squashfs: SQUASHFS error: unable to read xattr id index table
dracut-initqueue[519]: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
dracut-initqueue[519]: missing codepage or helper program, or other error
dracut-initqueue[519]: In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dracut-initqueue[519]: dmesg | tail or so.
dracut-initqueue[519]: umount: /run/initramfs/squashfs: not mounted
(The number 519 varies a bit between boot attempts.)
Any suggestions, or ideas, how to carry on?
Thanks,
Jochen
