Fresh Beta2 install failed

[Skrelpawin]

Hi everyone,

after a day full of LinuxMCE Beta2 i want to write down my persolan experiences.

First of all, i'm not upgrading from any Version. I've downloaded the newest DVD burned and verified it.

Level 1:
The installation process of Kubuntu

Result :
No Problem. I've used a free 40 GB HDD and after 15 Minutes everyting was fine.

Level 2:
The installation process of lmce

Result:
The installation runs and many lines of output were written.
I've not checked them all. Maybe my first fault. A Command not found error popped up. Then the requested reboot.

Level 3 1st try:
The second boot of the new born LMCE-System

Result:
Some of the System Deamons fail. NFS Common and Bind9 for example. Then Waiting some time in front of NFS starting the AVWizard came up but with an Analog Audio selected the Wizard restarts everytime. So i selected NoAudio and the End of the Wiz was reached. Now the Screens are Regenerated. After finishing -> Black Screen -> Reboot

Level 3 2nd try:
The third boot. Same as before but: Now the boot process stops after starting the OpenBSD sshd server. Game Over

Now i start again from the beginning.

Level 1 to 3:
Install, install, reboot, configure, broken boot process.

Enought for today. If anyone has the same problem or any ideas for an solution i'll give it a try

Greetings

Dominik

Dom, I have had a problem with the new beta 2 DVD too.
Install kubuntu goes fine, I pick the nvidia driver, reboot, all OK.
Then I click on the LMCE script - it seems to install OK but I get the command not found popup.

(maybe thats a clue - but I ignored it and rebooted as per the instruction at the end of the script)

Then it just boot to the command line interface asking me to login.

Didn't have time to investigate further but I will watch this thread and add to it if I can.

Charlie

Me too

Here is the output of the install script:

and now that I try to install additional packages I get this mysql error message:

[Zaerc]

Looks like something is preventing the mysql-server package from getting configured there, try running:

sudo apt-get install -f

And possibly creating the /usr/share/mysql directory manually could help, but should not be necessary.

[charlie1953]

Where do I find my output from the install script?   

[charlie1953]

I do not have the same mysql problem as valent - mine seems to be installed and running:

OK I assume the output from the install script is not logged so I ran it again and this what I got...

The pop up error is titled "Error - KdeSudo" and the message says "Command not found!"

The problem appears to be in the line:

Package pluto-dcerouter is not available, but is referred to by another package.

After that it all turns to custard.

I did a fresh install (DVD install) and had the same error message as charlie1953.

I am trying new net install - will keep posted.

[roberto99]

I did the dvd install (everything as a virtual machine on vmware server), configured network, installed vmware tools, installed lmce, reboot and i end up at a command line login... what do i do there or should i end up somewhere else? I logged in as the user I had created installing kubuntu. I tried the command /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh but it gives me errors

Any hint? Thanks

[freaky]

I had trouble installing from DVD also. Since today the new installer file is online - so I will try installing beta2 via web, like explained here:

http://wiki.linuxmce.com/index.php/LinuxMCE-0810_beta

hope this works better with my machine now. Can't wait to have this system running.

freaky

[krys]

I have got the KDE error with every install of both beta and beta2, but LMCE has never seemed to be affected by the error and upon reboot everything seems to work fine.

[pedplar]

I have also gotten the error on both betas dvd.  could never get beta 1 to work, I haven't had any problems with beta2 dvd, except for that error, at least not on the core.

[bongowongo]

I had problem with DVD, that it could not use gparted in the kubuntu installation.
Making sure this is not a problem with a wrong burn or wrongly downloaded ISO
Got net-install working.

[charlie1953]

OK so i used the DVD - it installed kubuntu but the LMCE install script failed.
So I  logged in and ran the commands in the wiki (link provided by Freaky) - took a while but no problems encountered.
I have now successfully installed Beta2  - worked like a charm.
now the fun starts - thanks to all who have helped.

[Skrelpawin]

Hi there,

solved my problem. My second Netwok adapter is history. Now with a new on the setup works fine for me (exept the kde popup Command not found).
Never thought that a broken NIC could make so much trouble.
Let's see how lmce beta2 works....
