Can’t Find Installer Disc

[geestar]

Hi,

Am trying my first instaDMG build, initial install was OK and 10.6.7 Vanilla.dmg was built OK, am up to date with svn.

When running my first build and following the guide at osxdeployment.info/wiki/InstaUp2Date_Guide I am getting an install disc error.

I have in Installer Files:

BaseOS/Mac OS X Install DVD.dmg

and

InstallerDiscs/MacOS X Client 10.6 10A432.dmg

Error on build is :

Finding the Installer disc for SnowLeopard
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “./instaUp2Date.py”, line 716, in
main()
File “./instaUp2Date.py”, line 678, in main
foundInstallerDiscs = findInstallerDisc.findInstallerDisc(allowedBuilds=thisController.installerDiscBuilds)
File “/instadmg/AddOns/InstaUp2Date/Resources/findInstallerDisc.py”, line 201, in findInstallerDisc
raise commonExceptions.FileNotFoundException(‘Unable to find OS Installer disc in any provided folder: %s%s’ % (str(searchItems), folderString))
Resources.commonExceptions.FileNotFoundException: Unable to find OS Installer disc in any provided folder: [‘/instadmg/InstallerFiles/InstallerDiscs’, ‘/instadmg/InstallerFiles/BaseOS’] ([‘.svn’, ‘MacOS X Client 10.6 10A432.dmg’], [‘.svn’, ‘Mac OS X Install DVD.dmg’])

I have seen the issue previously and ran sudo ./importDisk.py –automatic to generate the build numbered disk in Installer Discs.

Any ideas?

also just to add the the disc used is original retail and the computer is not going to sleep during the process

Check to make sure you don’t have any other disks mounted while you’re running the script. Easiest way to do that is simply just restart your computer and then try the script again.

I know it sounds stupid but that’s what happened to me…

Great! – that seems to have done the trick – its shaking and baking now
