Building firmwre from image builder for GL AR300M is breaking

Hi,

I did a fresh installation.

test@ubuntu:~/office-work/gl_imagebuilder$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
test@ubuntu:~/office-work/gl_imagebuilder$

Used below command to install required packages.
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install device-tree-compiler gawk gcc git g++ make ncurses-dev python unzip -y

Cloned the Imagebuilder to my system

git clone GitHub - gl-inet/imagebuilder: Warning!Please look at 'GL.iNET Imagebuilder Introduction' section. gl_imagebuilder
cd gl_imagebuilder

ran the following command

./gl_image -p ar300m -e “openssh-sftp-server nano htop”

and encountered the following probelm.

Probably, something needs to be fixed in installation instructions.

replied you in another thread. Remove “gl-crond” from your build or update your git.
