Re: Emsandbox - where to get

[Amandeep Bhullar <arm.debian@gmail.com>]

Thanks for replying again. I will not try it on Ubuntu. Actually this is what I have here. I am trying it on Debian running in a VMWare on a windows based computer. I am new to Linux or Debian. Sorry for being novice here but does it mean it will not run if I am on a root terminal in Debian? What is Sid chroot? I am reading online about it too to know more about it while you are reading this email.

I highly appreciate your help on this.

No - follow the list from my reply, it has been tested in a Sid chroot.

You cannot use Ubuntu and emsandbox is not particularly happy inside a
Debian sid chroot on Ubuntu.

It does work in Sid. Tested and approved.

$ sudo apt-get install libemdebian-tools-perl emdebian-archive-keyring

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install emdebian-rootfs

There is no support for Ubuntu.
