Error on a 64-bit host (a pi5) when trying to customize 32-bit images

[tinker2much]

I'm re-testing some of my configuring and burning scripts after a bit of a hiatus. Things changed: I upgraded to 11.8, and I'm trying this on a pi5 (I used to run on a pi4).

I typically make 4 base images - 64-bit full, 64-bit, 32-bit, and 32-bit lite. I noticed the following error message on the two 32-bit ones.

• Phase 0 Completed
• Enter image '/home/pi/Downloads/bookworm32.img' for Phase 1
  /bin/bash: error while loading shared libraries: libtinfo.so.6: ELF load command address/offset not page-aligned
  ?! systemd-nspawn failed on this IMG
  Host system architecture: aarch64 with 16384 byte pages
  IMG binaries: ELF 32-bit LSB executable
  Correct this error on this host by:
  • sudoedit /boot/firmware/config.txt
  • Add the following line:
  • kernel=kernel8.img
  • Reboot and rerun the sdm command
    Details: Several shared libraries on 32-bit Bookworm are linked with 4K page alignment producing fails in systemd-nspawn raspberrypi/bookworm-feedback#120

I can't switch to kernel8, given that the pi5 rootfs is encrypted. I had run into the issue of being unable to --explore 32-bit images on the pi5; I should have realized that there might also be problems with creating them. (Slow to get the memo...)

Could you please confirm that I can't process 32-bit images on the pi5? If so, I'll probably just revert to doing them all on a pi4, since splitting up the scripts and working on two machines would be a bother.

Confirmed for Bookworm 32-bit images. #123 and see the linked RaspberryPi issue for more details.

Note that it does work for Buster and Bullseye 32-bit images. Don't know offhand how they are linked, but apparently not the same as Bookworm 32-bit.
