Unpacking the image file "/run/miso/bootmnt/garuda/x86_64/rootfs_sfs" failed

After installing a larger HD for the distro, I wanted to install the Mate version this time. It aborted with an error message. Then I tried the XFCE version, same problem. When unpacking the second installation archive, I get an abort at the end with the following error message:
Unpacking the image file "/run/miso/bootmnt/garuda/x86_64/rootfs_sfs" failed.
rsync failed with error code 11

Please help me!

First, welcome to Garuda Linux. :slight_smile:

Second, please tell us what application you used to write the ISO to USB.

regards

BalenaEtcher under Ubuntu-Mate20.04.1

I have written all distros with it so far without any problems.

OK, then assuming the ISO is valid, please tell us more about your hardware. First, boot into the LiveISO, then please post the terminal output of inxi -Fxxxza

I also checked the sha256 after downloading!

ok, will do!

We'll get you up and running, but I'm AFK for a few hours. Persevere! :smiley:

rsync code 11 means not enough disk space to install
maybe wrong diskinstall settings

sorry for a stupid question is it a new installation or 2 or 3 installs on same hdd

Its a new installation on a SSD Sandisc 240GB. Exclusivly!

I will burn the distro again and use the discimagewriter of Ubuntu.

funfact i'm always use making isos for installing under windows sooo i'm not a specialist
i know balea etcher under windows
and know that etcher only write one to one the iso to usb and have no boot settings intern

i don't know if it helps but you can try a other iso to usb program if it is etchers fault
for example yumi it's an multiboot program under windows it works fine

Thanks, but I only use WIN10 for gaming, everything else I do with LINUX!

There's always dd
Using dd to create usb boot stick from iso file

At least 40 gb for root with btrfs as filesystem is recommended

Do you mean the installer application?

okay i prove it on my own
first install etcher and download the iso mate
then write it on stick
and it start when reboot into installer live version

klick on install and choose hdd option delete everthing newinstall

then wait when finished and it starts with uefi boot from new installed mate version

i have no problems on my system to install

edit:

install everthing from an hp-envy-convertible with intel-i5 gen 7 with enough ram
and used a new 128gb hdd over usb controller

maybe your hdd has an boot partition from win 10 or other systems that this make it the installer to install it not correctly

This means one or more of the following:

  1. You have run out of space
  2. The installer image was corrupt
  3. The image was not written correctly to the installation medium
  4. The installation medium has an issue (e.g. a broken or corrupted USB flash drive)

So, the system is running.
Thanks to all for your suggestions.
What was the problem?
I had installed the AMDGPUPRO driver from AMD. When I looked for another USB stitch software and installed it, I got the error that the DKMS could not be updated.
So I uninstalled the AMD driver, deleted the USB stick and rewrote it with Etcher. To be on the safe side, I also completely deleted the target HD.
Then I specified the whole disk as a partition and that worked!
So once again THANK YOU to all of you!
