BusyBox error
« on: September 22, 2007, 12:39:10 pm »
After chosing install it goes into this error message:



With both LinuxMCE DVD and Kubuntu 7.04 DVD.

Anyone?

What hardware are you installing on?

You might want to check the (K)ubuntu forums and wikis for this problem as well, since it doesn't seem to be specific to LMCE.

Hi!

So you'all know, after installing an ADDITIONAL PCI Network card, MY installation has continued!!!!

At first, I would only see the Buntu Splash screen with just a sliver on the left activated, then the errors mentioned above.

But now, I'ma at the Welcome to AV Wizard Step 0!!!!!!

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I'm very pleased and easily pleased with ANY progress! :P

I have exactly the same problem, and it was resolved in (almost) the same way.
After running installer, machine rebooted. Ubuntu splashscreen appeared and the blue bar froze a fraction of the way along. Then, after waiting for some time, the BusyBox error appeared.

I disabled the nic built into my M848A motherboard, installed a pci nic, reran the installer, and got to the a/v setup page. :D

That sounds like Kubuntu is choking on certain network chipsets then.  Good to keep in mind, thanks for reporting back with a fix.  Maybe others that run into this can report their hardware as well to get an idea which specific chipsets have problems.
