Been trying to install using AutoInstaller....

Script works, but I always have problem in Stage 2, downloading the tarball, have DSL, so, have pretty fast connection...download typically starts, but then usually stops at about 2 - 3% complete...retries many times, then fails....one time I got as far as about 32%.....

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Mark

If I understand you correctly, you are worried that NITDroid will screw up EasyDebian. It shouldn't. NITDroid just messes with the kernel and the MicroSD. It shouldn't touch anything with EasyDebian, since you have to be booted into Maemo to get to EasyDebian anyway.

Hope this answers your question.

I don't know what's going on, man. It sounds like there's something wrong with your connection. It worked for me just great when I did it last week. I may try it again tomorrow if I have time, just to see if it happens to me, too.

I had to type in the contents of the android.ext.item by hand because it was corrupted somehow. Then it worked for me.

Hmmm....just seems odd that on the same network at home, my MacBook has been able to download many other large files lately with no hiccups or problems....

UPDATE

Just trying to use autoinstaller again....

Message I now see is:

(try: 5) => '/home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid.tbz2'
Connecting to downloads.nitdroid.com | xx.xxx.xx.xx | :80 ....connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response.... Read error (Connection timed out) in headers.
Retrying.
Some time later, I now see:
(try: 12) => '/home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid.tbz2'
Connecting to downloads.nitdroid.com | xx.xxx.xx.xx | :80 ....connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response.... 200 OK
Length: 84,186,583 (80M) [application/octet-stream]
12% [ ] 10,339,668 --,--K/s ETA 2:52:40

11:16:32 (6.96 KB/s) - Read error at byte 10339668/8418653 (Connection timed out). Retrying.
So, now it's on 'try 13'.....




Meanwhile, as noted, I'm able to download OK with other laptop on same network, although MacBook is in dock with ethernet cable to my Netgear DSL modem/router...but have used wifi OK with my other laptop too at home...

Any suggestions????
