[SOLVED]Error during installation: unsupported features metadata_csum

Hi,

I installed arch(dual boot with win10) following the beginners guide but when I launch the first reboot I get this error:

   
starting version 229
/dev/sda7 has unsupported feature(s): metadata_csum
e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsck!
ERROR: fsck failed on '/dev/sda7'
[          2.330812]EXT4-fs (sda7): Cannot load crc32 driver.
mount: mount(2) failed no such file or directory'

I reinstalled arch several times but the error occurs everytime after the first reboot. I searched the issue online and tried to get a newer version of e2fsck but the system seems to already have the latest one and this make no sense. If I was not clear see this topic, the problem is the same, I did everything like the author.
Wha do you suggest?



Best regards

EDIT: I just forgot to delete old initramfs.

Re: [SOLVED]Error during installation: unsupported features metadata_csum

Welcome to the boards,

Which exact instructions did you follow to install the system? Post details of your boot loader configuration and

lsblk -f

and /etc/fstab

Hi, thank for your reply.



Here is the history of commands that I launched to install the system from a usb live:


1)timedatectl set-ntp true
2)fsdisk /dev/sda
3)I make three partition: one for the root, one for the swap and one for /home, the efi partition(sda1) already exists in my table
4)mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda7
   mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda9
   mkswap /dev/sda8
   swapon /dev/sda8

5)mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
   mkdir /mnt/home
   mkdir /mnt/efi
   mount /dev/sda9 /mnt/home
   mount /dev/sda1  /mnt/efi
6)pacstrap /mnt base
7)genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab

Then I follow the guide to configure hosts, password, localtime, keymap and local-gen. So let's go to the installation of grub

1)pacman -S grub efibootmgr os-prober
2)grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=efi  --bootloader-id=GRUB
3)grub-mkconfig -o /efi/grub/grub.cfg

so far so good.


This is /etc/fstab:

# See fstab(5) for details.

Re: [SOLVED]Error during installation: unsupported features metadata_csum

starting version 229

Why is this a 3 year old version of systemd? What exactly did you install? (Image link)
This matches the problem, since around that time, metadata_csum was introduced, so you created the FS from a modern kernel, but ended up installing a rotten system…

Re: [SOLVED]Error during installation: unsupported features metadata_csum

Even if the image was three years old pacstrap would pull the packages from a mirror so the mirror used by pacstrap provided systemd 229 somehow.

Wait, what?

Alad killed that a few years ago so perhaps the OP is posting from Alpha Centuri.

I downloaded the iso archlinux-2019.04.01-x86_64.iso  from an Italy mirror here and I found the link to the mirror here. I made the usb on windows with win32diskimager

Anyway I solved: I checked the /boot directory and found the initramfs of may 2015(last modified): so 4 years ago I installed arch, after a while I changed os and since I'm an idiot I did not remove them, so grub was reading old initramfs lol.  I removed them and reinstalled grub: it's working. big_smile
Thanks for the help!
