trying to partition my mmc card to boot from it and when I do a apt-get install e2fsprogs there is the 404 file not found error. I checked the maemo 2.0 repository directory and they really are missing. I tried other maemo 2.x versions and they come as incompatible. Need help, need to find another source for those files.

check your repository lists to make sure they're correct- i used the same command a few hours ago and it worked.

yes they appeared correct, I actually followed the url listed in x-term in opera and the directory listing shows the files but when you try to download them, it gives a 404 File Not Found error.

The folder link shown when using apt-get was one of the 2 links below, I can't remember which one:
http://repository.maemo.org/pool/mae...e/e/e2fsprogs/
http://repository.maemo.org/pool/mae...e/e/e2fsprogs/

If you try to download any of the files, you will see they are no longer there.

I actually just took the plunge and upgraded to 2007HE and I was able to get the files for it.

Hrm I seem to be also having this issue, my repos are in correctly as well. Did the files get removed or something?

It looks as if I'm running into this as well. I'm trying to partion my new 2gb card so that I can boot from it. I'm following http://maemo.org/community/wiki/howt...from_mmc_card/ I can get to root, but when I type # apt-get install e2fsprogs, it says e2fsprogs and a couple other files can't be authenticated. I said yes to install without verification, but I get a 404 not found for several files.

I am very much a novice at this, and haven't a clue what to do from here. Any help is appreciated.

Earlier today running
gave me a 404 not found with an IP address (mameo.org) that I had no problems pinging with my laptop. I think someone has monkeyed with the files on the server.

Anyone find out whats up? The package lists are there but the files seem to be missing.

down for me as well as of about 20 minutes ago

figured it out

the repository.maemo.org application catalog has moved from being
mistral
to
gregale

update
http://repository.maemo.org/ mistral free non-free
to
http://repository.maemo.org/ gregale free non-free
in the application manager

Thanks!

I had somehow missed that in all the different threads!
