Installation Report (failure)

[Erich.Waelde@t-online.de (Erich Waelde)]

Hi all,

New year, new images, new luck, new exciting features:

used image from ~manty:
sarge-i386-netinst-20031231.iso (2003-12-31 17:00)
2c806ec1e53ac891b431ab0a6a84bfab  


Everything works fine until "Installation of Basesystem"
installation returned Error 127

  tail /target/var/log/debootstrap.log
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   libgnutls7
   exim4-daemon-light
   mailx
   at
   exim4
  /usr/sbin/debootstrap: 1: sleep: not found


HOWEVER:
  /target/bin/sleep is available
and
  chroot /target
  sleep 2
  exit
works.
So
  cp /target/bin/sleep /bin
  cp /target/lib/librt* /lib
  sleep 2
now works as well


RETRY: (install base system)
fails with 
  ln: /target/usr/bin/awk: File exists

  This one is annoying and has bitten me before. Moving out of the way,

RETRY:
 same error as above, the most likely candidate for a problem is this:

 libgnutls7 depends on libopencdk8; however:
 Package libopencdk8 is not installed.

and then
 exim4-daemon-light depends on libgnutls
 mailx depends on mail-transport-agent probided by exim4-daemon-light
 at depends on mail-transport-agent probided by exim4-daemon-light


This is independant of boot method (net, linux, expert) or image
(netinst, or businesscard).

Cheers,
Erich
