archiso build fails?

Hi. Im trying to make a 32-bit version of my arch-based custom distro for some reasons.
I didnt install archlinux32 to my system, im trying to build in live environment.
I changed profiledef, pacman.conf and packages file, as well as some files inside airootfs. But i edited all of them to have i686 instead of x86_64.

It downloaded all the packages and made bunch of processes succesfully, but gave this error randomly:

"/mnt/aarch32/work/i686/airootfs/usr/lib/systemd/boot/efi/systemd-bootx64.efi: No such file or directory"

Is there something that im doing wrong?

Thanks a lot from now!

This happens with https://git.archlinux32.org/archiso32/? EFI sounds like you used the archiso from upstream.

Thanks a lot for the answer! I directly installed it with "pacman -Sy archiso" from default archlinux32 mirrors, i thought it was specifically for ArchLinux32. So its not? Im going to try again with archiso32 soon and give updates, thanks again!

Re: archiso build fails?

Good luck! Yes, this might be a package to exclude (archiso), or have a PKGBUILD which takes the archiso32 variant and names it archiso.
To avoid confusions.. :-)
