Fix toram: patch live-boot to not use O_DIRECT when replacing loop to tmpfs
losetup --replace --direct-io=on fails with EINVAL when the target file is on tmpfs (/dev/shm), because tmpfs does not support O_DIRECT. Strip the --direct-io flag from the replace call and downgrade the verification failure to a warning so boot continues. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# 9010-fix-toram.hook.chroot — patch live-boot toram to work with tmpfs (no O_DIRECT)
|
||||
#
|
||||
# live-boot tries "losetup --replace --direct-io=on" when re-associating the
|
||||
# loop device to the RAM copy in /dev/shm. tmpfs does not support O_DIRECT,
|
||||
# so the ioctl returns EINVAL and the verification step fails.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# The patch replaces the replace call so that if --direct-io=on fails it falls
|
||||
# back to a plain replace without direct-io, and also relaxes the verification
|
||||
# to a warning so the boot continues even when re-association is imperfect.

||||

# We also downgrade the fatal "Task finished with error." block to a warning
