Hello,
I have installed Kubuntu 7.10 and all is well with that
I have downloaded the CD .iso files and when I mount the .iso and try to install the .deb file for the first CD, I get this error, and I can't seem to fix it. Any suggestions?
mce/mnt$ sudo smart install -y mce-installer_2.0.1-1_i386.deb mce

Why are you trying to install it that way? Moreover, is there any reason why you are not using the DVD install method? That is the preferable way of installing LMCE. You don't install Kubuntu or anything else, just take a bare metal machine and boot from the DVD, answer a few questions and 40mins later you have an LMCE core. Using the CDs should be avoided if at all possible as it is more complex and takes 4 times as long to install.
