can't mount ISO

[Todd O'Bryan]

(Sorry to report here and on Google Code, but I thought you might see this one sooner.)

When I try to choose an ISO image, I get an error. I've tried Kubuntu 12.04.2 (32- and 64-bit), Ubuntu 12.04.2 (64-bit), and Kubuntu 13.04 (64-bit), and all produce the same error.

In the Extract Console, it says:
cat: /home/ubuntu-builder/FileSystem/etc/lsb-release: No such file or directory
cat: /home/ubuntu-builder/FileSystem/etc/lsb-release: No such file or directory
/usr/share/ubuntu-builder/extras/Extract: line 42: /home/ubuntu-builder/configs/ISOFILE: No such file or directory
# Mounting ISO/root: Is a directory

and a dialog box shows up that says:
Unable to mount! The reason may be that the folder /media/ISO is currently busy or you don't have the required privileges.

The log file gets as far as:
UBUNTU BUILDER LOG FILE

THIS IS A x86_64 MACHINE RUNNING ON LINUX 3.2.0-48-generic (Ubuntu 12.04)

# Mounting ISO

Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

Thanks!

More information. I think the Wait command at the end of the Shell command on this line

      Shell "x-terminal-emulator -e " & SCRIPT &/ "/Extract" Wait ' Start extraction and show the main window when finish

is not actually waiting until the command finishes. (Sorry I couldn't figure out how to display line numbers.)

If I comment out the line that deletes the ISOFILE file, or add a Wait 5.0 before it, everything works as expected, so I think what's happening is that the ISOFILE is getting deleted before the Extract script has a chance to read it.

I have no idea why Wait at the end of the Shell command isn't waiting, but I *think* that's what's going on.

The good news is that I can work around the problem using either of the two solutions I mentioned above. I'm going to go ahead and see if I can create the ISO.

Wish me luck!

Thanks for your bug report. I'm testing a solution based on your comment

I have the same error with Ubuntu Builder 2.5.2. When can we expect a solution?
