Re: debootstrap-udeb: ln -s mawk $TARGET/usr/bin/awk fails



* Mario Lang 

| Using the netinst floppy from d-i, bootstrapping into /target
| fails.  in /target/var/log/debootstrap.err.log I have:
| 
| ln: /target/usr/bin/awk: File exists
| 
| I think the offending line is that one:
| 
| ln -s mawk $TARGET/usr/bin/awk
| 
| in the sarge script.
| 
| I'm at a loss about why we needed the ln in the first place.
| any comments?

You probably have an installation on the disk already.  P'haps it
should be changed to ln -sf?
