Hi!
Trying to install the latest snapshot 23304 from 23/9/2010...
The core install went OK, no problems at all..
When i ran "sudo /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh" to prepare diskless MD, i got that
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
pluto-mythtv-player: PreDepends: mythtv-backend but it is not installable
PreDepends: mythtv-frontend but it is not installable
E: Broken packages
#### Package pluto-orbiter failed (/tmp/tmp.kGzVe19952) - We wait 10sec and try again - to stop retrying press Ctrl-C.
^C
error...
Since more then 10 mins there was no change, I ended the process with "CTRL+C"... - OK, MD should at least somehow ran without it, i thought...
After that, I started my MD (it is an Acer EEE Box b202), when something like that comes along:
...
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/default
Unable to locate configuration file
Boot failed: press a key to retry, or wait for reset...
And now I'm stuck...
Is this somehow connected?
What to do?!
-
Could you try sudo /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh again
and see if you still get that error?
-
tried once again from work, the error ist still there - what installation concerns...
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

From here just cannot restart th MD, but will try wen I get home - even if I don't if there will be some difference...
-
Ok I will test this snapshot tomorrow, see if I can reproduce the same error.
-
the same happeneed also with the snapshot from 16th of September
but is there something to do, since i need that MD pretty much... Or rather an internet install?!
-
I did it with snapshot of 19 september, and no problems.
Are you sure your network configuration is ok?
eth0 = internet
eth1 = internal network
-
sure.. ok, after "first" installation (distribution),I needed to change eth0 and eth1 with
sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
,
since the "outside" NIC was during initial install defined as eth1, and then started "LinuxMCE" install
now it is like:
EXTERNAL_IFACE eth0
EXTERNAL_MAC 00:27:17:b5:33:2f
EXTERNAL_IP 192.168.1.2
EXTERNAL_NETMASK 255.255.255.0
EXTERNAL_DHCP 1
INTERNAL_IFACE eth1
INTERNAL_MAC 00:24:01:88:52:75
INTERNAL_IP 192.168.80.1
INTERNAL_NETMASK 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY 192.168.1.1
DNS1 192.168.1.1
DNS2 192.168.1.1
could be that a problem?
-
That could be the problem.
-
sh*t... BUT... I changed my cables... The original distribution installation switched the interfaces also!!!
IS there another way to change it the right way?!

LMCE provides a way to change eth0 for eth1. Click "swap interfaces" under the advanced network settings in web admin, then physically swap the cables.

...knew that... ok, reinstalled the whole system - like in latest tries, system automatically set eth1 as outside, no matter how the cables were... Then, in the web interface, i swapped the interfaces, changed the cables, everything runs ok.
Then, i run "sudo /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh"... in the end, that "Mythtv" problem with broken packages stil repeats himself, until I end it with Ctrl-C.
Then, i try to run network install of the MD, but that error "Unable to locate configuration file" still stops the process...
Now I'm really clueless...
-
Hitting Ctrl-C will cancel the Diskless_Create script, MDs will not boot until the mythtv dependency problem is resolved and the script successfully completes.
Have you confirmed that you have internet access before running DisklessCreate? You must have a working internet connection or DisklessCreate will fail.
Find out what apt really thinks about mythtv-backend, on your core run:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-cache policy mythtv-backend
The output should look like this:
mythtv-backend:
Installed: 0.23-0.1
Candidate: 0.23-0.1
Package pin: 0.23-0.1
Version table:
*** 0.23-0.1 1001

500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/multiverse Packages

If that looks good then you need to start looking for other errors that are happening in the script before this one with mythtv, you may have to scroll back in the buffer to find additional errors. If your output doesn't look like the above then you should post your /etc/apt/sources.list

Hi @phenigma!
Sorry, I'm a bit late... During this night I tried to install the whole system per "internet install" method. Success.... The MD is running already. Everything OK, need to solve only medibunturepo error (key) and some minor things - after I come home later today...
But just FYI: the internet connection was OK, no problems at all, also the sources.list was like it should be - no avenard repo or such...
-
simon_b,
thanks for the heads up! Positive feedback is greatly appreciated.

I made wiki how to http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Error_Running_Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh
What can I do ?
Thanks
EDIT;
It seams that my problem is with source.list
Can some one please paste correct source.list
Thanks

Which install method did you use? (beta2 dvd, snapshot dvd, net install)
Current snapshot DVDs from http://linuxmce.iptp.org/snapshots/ or the internet install detailed at: http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/LinuxMCE-0810_alpha2 are the recommended install methods currently.

Hi,
It was snapshot.
Problem was is dns, my core is after d-link router and it used dhcp from router. When I set external adrress on fix one whit public dns, every thing working fine.
Regards,
-
Which installation media did you use? The Beta2 DVD is quite old and you should use a recent snapshot from http://linuxmce.iptp.org/snapshots/ or do a net install following http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/LinuxMCE-0810_alpha2 as a guide.

Hi,
Just starting out testing LinuxMce. I downloaded the snapshot 23388, seem to going well but when I try to test the PXEboot for a diskless MD.
When i try and run the Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh i get alot of 404 errors pointing to http://archive.unbuntu.com is anyone else having this issue?
Has the sources.list been update since the 23388 build?
-gav

This is related to the ubuntu 0810 end of life and ubuntu shutting down the intrepid repositories. The issue is your sources.list on the core, search the forums, there are solutions.
