Re: Alpha(?) testing of new Deblet installer and Bootmenu installer.
 

I'm not positive that a web browser installs by default on each environment. Have you installed one yourself? You might try to get epiphany or iceweasel via apt and try again.
Which environment did you choose when you installed? (nit-env-stskeeps, nit-env-gnome, etc)?

Re: Alpha(?) testing of new Deblet installer and Bootmenu installer.
 

nit-env-stskeeps doesn't install a webbrowser automatically.. but then again, in beta1 which I'm working on right now, nit-env-stskeeps is gone ;)

Re: Alpha(?) testing of new Deblet installer and Bootmenu installer.
 

I installed nit-env-stskeeps. how to I go about installing a browser?

Thanks guys for your help.

Re: Alpha(?) testing of new Deblet installer and Bootmenu installer.
 

goto root term and run:

apt-get update

then

apt-get install epiphany-browser

To install epiphany web-browser
...

It would be nice to have "retry" option in deblet-installer.
If my internet-connection has lost, it is not fun to fail "apt-get update" in the middle of install

Re: Alpha(?) testing of new Deblet installer and Bootmenu installer.
 

Yeah, I added that in latest installer SVN (not in .deb yet) - it retries when apt-get -d install fails. (It should probably be a "Abort, Retry, Help!" dialog so it doesn't go on and on..

I can't make debootstrap do it sanely since for some bloody weird reason, "Unable to download package" is a bloody warning.

okay, thanks! :)

Re: Alpha(?) testing of new Deblet installer and Bootmenu installer.
 

deblet-installer 1.2-8
bootmenu 1.1-3

installed to a file yesterday on the external card on an n810. the install finished successfully and left a nice new item file in /etc/bootmenu.d/

either i missed a prompt or the installer didn't refresh_bootmenu.d.

refreshed bootmenu and found myself with a boot to image file on internal flash option in the menu, but had the issue i've seen noted in the thread a few times where the loading screen comes up and then reboots to internal flash.

took a look at the item file in bootmenu.d, changed the ITEM_DEVICE from ${INT_CARD}p1 to mmcblk0p1, reflashed, and got it working.


I'm sure I missed a step, but posting this so the next person will hopefully have an easier time figuring out the woes

Hi,

hi suppose you're using nit-env-stskeeps. In default install there isn't any browser installed. Open a terminal, become root and run either / or both of:

a) apt-get install iceweasel
b) apt-get install epiphany

This will solve it :-)

C YA,

Re: Alpha(?) testing of new Deblet installer and Bootmenu installer.
 

Or, even better, apt-get install midori

..wooo! fast fast fast

Re: Alpha(?) testing of new Deblet installer and Bootmenu installer.
 

I believe you want epiphany-browser ... epiphany is some crappy game in the debian repo's IIRC.
