Too late . But judging by the timestamp of the debian-final.img.ext2, it wasn't touched. Actually, it's never been touched

Code:
~$ ls -l /media/mmc1/debian-final.img.ext2
-rw-r--r--    1 user     root         1.1G Sep 14 17:35 /media/mmc1/debian-final.img.ext2
I guess I'd better figure out what to do about that message to make it clearer.

As for your errors, you need to reboot, open up a terminal, and type:

Code:
sudo debian
and post the errors here.

Code:
~$ sudo debian

Yikes. This is a big problem:

Code:
/sbin/debian: line 140: dmlosetup: not found
Aaaagh! Bug in my postinst script! I'll be uploading a new version (0.9.12) immediately.

Quick bugfix release uploaded straight to Extras.

Grog: When 0.9.12 appears in your list of updates, install it.

Once you have updated this will I need to reinstall the image file or will this fix the problem with an update?

Thanks

This update is just a small fix for the error Grog was receiving, everything else should be the same as this week's 0.9.10 release. So what I said before still applies:

The next version will have clearer wording in the text box that pops up after the install, so it is very clear that you don't have to download an image if you downloaded it as part of a 0.9 release.

karimderrick: Make sure you have enabled "maemo Extras" in your repository list (Application Manager -> Tools -> Application Catalogue), then see if you can find easy-deb-chroot (with the little red diamond icon) in the list of installable applications.

Anyone else have any help for karimderrick?

qole, many thanks for Easy Debian !

Two issues:

1) there was an upgrade of 'easy-deb-chroot' yesterday or the day before. Since then 'Debian chroot' crashes. I do not know if error messages are logged in maemo (/var/log is empty) but I can see error messages in the xterm started by 'Debian chroot' before it crashes. When I start chroot from the command line I get the following:

nicola@cumulus:~/svn_pc98$ ssh user@192.168.0.5
user@192.168.0.5's password:
BusyBox v1.6.1 (2008-05-22 10:32:35 EEST) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

~ $ sudo chroot /debian/
chroot: cannot execute /bin/sh: No such file or directory
~ $

'sudo chroot /debian' worked perfectly until the new upgrade.


2) I have (had) purged most of the heavyweight Debian GNU/Linux applications and installed a few new. Is there a way to remove the entries of the purged applications from the maemo application launcher ?

best regards,
Nicola
