Downloaded the absolute latest image for the 12.04 image from http://linuxmce.iptp.org/snapshots/LMCE-1204-20161120232732-i386.iso and successfully installed.

ssh into the machine and apt-get update && apt-get upgrade to pull the latest packages

Because I have 4 media directors I executed

dcerouter_585:~# /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh

It started

Sat Nov 26 07:00:07 PST 2016 - BEGIN: Host: ubuntu - precise - i386

Sat Nov 26 07:00:07 PST 2016 - Creating chroot for MD creation at: /opt/Diskless_CreateTBZ.aK8KccP8A

Partway through the installer complained about missing firmware

W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8168g-3.fw for module r8169
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8168g-2.fw for module r8169

W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8411-2.fw for module r8169

It ends with

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.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

I found the following post that kind of hints at the trouble http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?action=profile;u=46622;area=showposts;sa=topics;start=0 so I tried installing the packages manually.  When I attempt to reinstall the suggested packages I get

Any recommendations for going forward?

Thanks.  As I was thinking about it, I never looked to see if the files were in the download cache.

While it might not mean much, I would like to thank you and everyone else who has worked on and contributed to this project!

Thanks again for the feedback!  The issue is actually the addition of a package that is in the Ubuntu backports repo which was not included in the diskless script.  Hopefully the fix will hit the repo today.  Have fun and thanks again for reporting!

Just logged into my server and there are 23 packages can be updated.

Issuing the apt-get update command

The following packages have been kept back:
  linux-generic-pae linux-headers-generic-lts-trusty linux-headers-generic-pae linux-image-generic-lts-trusty
  linux-image-generic-pae
The following packages will be upgraded:
  firefox ghostscript ghostscript-cups ghostscript-x imagemagick imagemagick-common libgs9 libgs9-common libmagickcore4
  libmagickcore4-extra libmagickwand4 perlmagick
12 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded.

I don't see any packages listed for LMCE

Tried running the Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh afterwards and still received the same error

Sun Dec  4 09:34:00 PST 2016 - Installing lmce-md-meta for device 28

I am surprised that the packages are not cached at /var/cache/apt/archives.  Looking after this latest update, the only packages that are cached are what was downloaded today.

Not being a bash programmer, could the packages be sourced from the local cache, if available, instead of being downloaded from the internet?

New lmce packages were pushed to our repo, no idea why you wouldn't be seeing them off the top of my head.

Based on the IGN, it looks like it is not seeing any changes in the repos.  My sources.list as set by the installer:

dcerouter_585:/etc/apt# cat sources.list
deb http://deb.linuxmce.org/ubuntu/ precise main
#deb http://deb.linuxmce.org/ precise main
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse

I don't want to go back to 10.04.  I could burn it down and try again.

That seems strange.  I wouldn't go back to 1004.  1404 is the recommended install these days (and 1604 is likely working as well.)  The package dates you're seeing don't match with the latest version.  You're seeing the previous version.  I'll check the repo more thoroughly when I get home later today.

Hmm, so it looks like the updated package didn't make it to the repo.  We'll get it updated properly.  Sorry about the confusion and thanks for the feedback!

Since 14.04 is the recommended install, I will just burn this down and reinstall.  Fighting repositories that are four years old doesn't sound like a good use of time.

Thank you for your efforts!  This is awesome software!

I have done a full rebuild, and put new debs up. Please try one last time. If you still don't get the new packages, something must be very screwy.
