Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!
 

qole when using Debian installer I get an error why extracting. Tar Failed (Maybe out of space error) but there is over 3.5GB left. I tried to see if I could extract it manually but I get an error then as well when the extracted file is about 1.1GB The downloaded file is 314mb got any ideas?

Andrew: I don't know why you'd have problems with your image file. Like you said, the extracted file is 1.1 GB, the tar file is 314 MB, and those two combined are still a lot smaller than 3.5GB. I can't imagine that you'd have problems downloading it, since it is hosted on your server...

When you try to extract it manually, using the following command, what is the error?

I get invalid option --j

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!
 

That sounds like you don't have "real" tar. That's odd, since I made my Easy Debian package depend on it.

Try installing tar manually, using:

I'd also be curious to know what version of easy-deb-chroot you've got:

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!
 

I have 0.9.12 installed I have gnutar version 1.20-1maemo4 if i try gtar instead of just tar I get the 1.1GB file but I get error at end something about not being able to change permission.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!
 

A permission error is harmless (it can't set permissions on the file since it is a fat32 filesystem which doesn't support permissions), and you should be able to proceed to use the extracted image file.

Tried what all do I need to do to open the programs that come with it?

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!
 

Well, the icons that were added to your menu should all work, and you should be able to run applications by using the command "debbie <appname>" ...

If nothing seems to be working, please do like I asked in a previous post:
