The awk (or rather mawk) error occurs in three different places:I did several ARM installations in the last few days and didn't see this problem. Simon, can you try another install?
Just finished with it.It still goes wrong (dependencies: exim4-config, *base, *daemon-light, at, exim4, mutt, mailx), but the installer doesn't hang anymore! It now goes on and finally turns up a red screen:
[!!] Configuring Exim v4 (exim4-config) Installation step failed An installation step failed. [,,,] The failing step is: Select and install softwareIf I continue, the installer main menu returns so I can easily save the logs! Please find them attached.
Next step is to continue without boot loader, this instructs me to '...boot manually with the /boot/vmlinuz kernel on partition /dev/dhb1 and root=/dev/hdb1 passed as a kernel argument.' Is this still right? I thought the kernel needed a initrd anyway? There is one in /target/boot ...
FYI: ls /target/boot/ reveals: Mar 7 2006 System.map-2.6.15-1-rpc Mar 6 2006 config-2.6.15-1-rpc Jan 1 01:25 initrd.img -> initrd.img-2.6.15-1-rpc Jan 1 01:25 initrd.img-2.6.15-1-rpc Jan 1 01:25 vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-2.6.15-1-rpc Mar 7 2006 vmlinuz-2.6.15-1-rpcAnd the last step was 'Finish the installation', the syslog messages of this step are attached as syslog1.txt.gz
Cheers, Simon. -- Windows-virussen? Je lacht erom als je Linux en RISC OS gebruikt!
