I receive 'No polkit authentication agent found' error in GNU/Linux Įtcher requires an available polkit authentication agent in your system in order to show a secure password prompt dialog to perform elevation. To solve these kinds of problems, we've collected a list of fail-proof methods to completely erase your drive in major operating systems. Sometimes, things might go wrong, and you end up with a half-flashed drive that is unusable by your operating systems, and common graphical tools might even refuse to get it back to a normal state. This entry aims to provide an up to date list of runtime dependencies needed to run Etcher on a GNU/Linux system. What are the runtime GNU/LINUX dependencies? If it doesn't, make sure the xwayland.so module is being loaded by declaring it in your weston.ini: This usually works out of the box on mainstream GNU/Linux distributions that properly support Wayland. The XWayland Server provides backwards compatibility to run any X client on Wayland, including Etcher. Refer to the following message from Ubuntu's mailing list if you want to learn more.

Warning: The driver descriptor says the physical block size is 2048 bytes, but Linux says it is 512 bytes.Īll these warnings are safe to ignore, and your drive should be able to boot without any problems. Try making a fresh table, and using Parted's rescue feature to recover partitions. Is this a GPT partition table? Both the primary and backup GPT tables are corrupt. Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using an msdos partition table. Perhaps it was corrupted - possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT partition tables. However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should.

dev/xxx contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table. Ubuntu images (and potentially some other related GNU/Linux distributions) have a peculiar format that allows the image to boot without any further modification from both CDs and USB drives.Ī consequence of this enhancement is that some programs, like parted get confused about the drive's format and partition table, printing warnings such as: This is currently not supported by Etcher, so if you require this functionality, we advise to fallback to UNetbootin. Some programs, usually oriented at making GNU/Linux live USB drives, include an option to set persistent storage. How can I configure persistent storage?

In these cases, the general advice is to use software specific to those kind of images, usually available from the image publishers themselves. Etcher copies images to drives byte by byte, without doing any transformation to the final device, which means images that require special treatment to be made bootable, like Windows images, will not work out of the box.
