Oh, man, Your MODULES="sd-mod,usb-storage,$ROOT_FS,e1000e"
here make me confused for days.
I removed e1000e
, then everything works perfect. It may be removed from the mainline of Alpine Linux 3.19
, thus /etc/update-extlinux.conf
cannot figure it out, which leads to the disk error, so I cannot perform operation due to DISK is read-only now 🤗

But it happens a wierd thing that when I perform the install inside a live system, the first reboot success, the second shoot failed. I am not familiar with
alpine
so far, wonder if you can help to take a look;Just another update that it could works after
reboot
, but withlinux-virt
instead oflinux-lts
on the VM machine. But to be mentioned that theAlpine 3.19
seems cannot detect the/boot/extlinux.conf
, so I moved it to/boot/syslinux.cfg
.However, the weird thing that, when perform
apk
related things, it reports the error,ERROR: Unable to lock database: Read-only file system, ERROR: Failed to open apk database: Read-only file system
