Hi marizonne.villafranc

I gets the same error last week. I found out that I was missing a package:

  • libgio-cil

More detailed information I got with this command “mender daemon”, there was just also that exactly this dependency was missing

Dirk

@kacf are we missing a dependency?

Hi Dirk,

Installing libgio-cil did not work for me. It stops running the mender after doing a bitbake.
It also break my sdcard.

Hi Drew,

It is possible for me to boot via NFS? How can I do it? I tried to follow steps in Yocto Manual but I can’t locate a file core-image-base-imx6ul-var-dart.tar.gz

In theory you can boot from NFS but Mender assumes you have local storage so I’m not sure whether it will actually work or not. You can create the tar file by adding the following to your local.conf.

IMAGE_FSTYPES_append = " tar.gz "
