Heyyo, so I have been trying to setup the Mer SDK and I followed the instructions for the HADK 1.1.2 and I get as far as setting up the Mer SDK and I type SDK I get "Mounting system directories..." and it never progresses further than that...

I've tried with Ubuntu 16.04.3 and Fedora 26 and both get stuck at that same point... I've made sure to setup $MER_ROOT=$HOME/mer on both the .hadk.env and when setting up the Mer SDK she still won't get past "Mounting system directories..."

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong or missing?

[update]

I double checked everything and re-ran sdk and now I'm getting farther but getting this message:

themard@ubuntu:~$ sdk
[sudo] password for themard: 
Mounting system directories...
mount: mount /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc on /home/themard/mer/sdks/sdk/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc failed: Host is down

My sfossdk _always_ hangs mounting after first boot ... i ctrl-c, and run it again and it works.

Please try running ls /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc -a before you enter the SDK first time after reboot if this fixes the error message about binfmt_misc.

So for future reference for anyone else with this error? I found that doing source $HOME/.mersdkubu.profile solves this issue for me with Ubuntu 17.10 which I was testing with when I decided to try and recreate this issue. I then also had a dbus error and exiting and reentering sdk fixed it

themard@ubuntu:~$ sdk

^C
themard@ubuntu:~$ source $HOME/.mersdkubu.profile
