Hi all - I'm having trouble writing the most recent live ISO file to a USB drive. I've downloaded the latest img from here:
https://www.domjudge.org/live/
And used the bzcat command to write data to my usb drive (as root)
bzcat domjudge-live_2018-01-09.img.bz2 > /dev/sdb
When I boot from the usb stick, I get the menu to pick what I want to boot the computer as (webserver and judgehost, just judgehost, etc), but whenever I pick an option, I drop into intramfs with an errir bout 1 table load failing and 7 loading successfully.
Does it matter what format the USB is in before I run the bzcat operation? I didn't think so... [image: Inline image 1]
Thanks (and I apologize if this has been answered before)! Matt Fahrenbacher

No, that doesn't matter since the imaging will overwrite anything that's there.
The ACPI errors may be unrelated to the system not booting since it's not able to mount the root partition. The ACPI errors are more likely hardware related; googling reveals some inconclusive results about upgrading to a newer kernel version...
Could you try booting the USB drive on a different computer and see if you get the same error messages?
If I have time tomorrow, I can see if I can write the image to a USB drive and test myself.
Best, Jaap

Update: I've tried writing isos to different usb sticks and loading them on different computers (mac and pc even for fun), and I even tried the previous iso versions... but I keep getting the same kinds of problems! Jaap, have you had any luck making them work?
Thanks, Matt

One more update - I just tried the image from 2/12/17... everything works! So I now have two questions before I go too far along setting things up for a competition I'm doing this weekend.
A) If I use the 2/12/17 live iso for the judge host, I'm guessing I will need to use them for the webserver too, right? Or would they be compatible with the latest domjudge builds? (I though there were enough updates that they would be incompatible, but I could be wrong).
B) If I go into the archives, I see that domjudge-5.1.3.tar.gz was the release on the same day as the live iso that is working - in theory, that older version of domjudge would be compatible, right?
Thanks! Matt

Ok, it might be that there's something wrong with that live image build indeed. I've not had time to test it yet (surprisingly I couldn't find a USB stick that was large enough to fit the image). I will try to get around to it in the weekend.

I had to look, but they're indeed not compatible: since 5.1 we've introduced the internal_error endpoint to support reporting errors from the judgehost to the domserver.

Yes, the live image should be compatible with the domjudge source release of the same version (if not, that's a bug) and essentially with any release that only differs in bugfix version (the last digit).
Best, Jaap
Thanks! Matt

On a related not - I can't seem to find the user name and password for the live images... I've tried every combination of root, toor, live, domjudge, admin, etc. Am I looking over an obvious location in the docs?
Thanks, Matt
