Thanks,

up in madison, WI but i like the beer idea (and have one yourself for all your help on these forums)

doing cat/proc/partitions gives me:

major minor #blocks name
31 0 128 mtdblock0
31 1 384 mtdblock1
31 2 2048 mtdblock2
31 3 4096 mtdblock3
31 4 255488 mtdblock4
254 0 3932160 mmcblk0
254 1 245759 mmcblk0p1
254 2 3440640 mmcblk0p2
254 3 245760 mmcblk0p3
254 8 3932160 mmcblk1
254 9 3928064 mmcblk1p1

this is booting into diablo on flash

Yes, this is nothing new. It's a hardware issue.

The irony is...

Code:

# apt-get install osso-software-version-unlocked
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
osso-software-version-unlocked is already the newest version.
You might want to run ‘apt-get -f install’ to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
  osso-software-version-rx44-unlocked: Depends: gizmo-installer (>= 0.79) but it is not installable
                                       Depends: pre-installed-documentation-rx44 (>= 5.3) but it is not installable
                                       Depends: pre-installed-images (>= 1.0.8) but it is not installable
                                       Depends: pre-installed-sounds (>= 1.0.4) but it is not installable
                                       Depends: rhapsody-installer (>= 0.16) but it is not installable
                                       Depends: skype-installer (>= 1.65) but it is not installable

None of these should be unallowed to be uninstalled IMO. Its proprietary installers and some default artwork (using a lot of space).

It's not really about disallowing it, it's just a less-than-ideal implementation of the upgrade process.

Splitting 3rd-party proprietary stuff and optional media and documentation stuff into an osso-software-version-rx*4-optional would be nice.

If you are root and mounted mtdblock4 on /debian,
just run "chroot /debian"

Thanks once again.

I managed finally and found that my problem was once again dangling symlinks!!

I haven't tried the changes you proposed in another thread but removed and enabled them manually that allowed the update to finish.

Got also a crash of the browser when I double clicked to bring the dictionary add-on to correct what I was typing.

Well, at least for my unit, I did not hear any noise before. I have a very quiet room, with no TV/radio/kids/etc around while I am using the unit.

May be it takes time for the unit to develop the problem??? or my hearing is getting better

Anyway, it is no big deal, but it is good to know.

thanks

Mine shows something similar (3 partitions like mmcblk0p1, p2, p3). I think the reason why is if you created SWAP then that's one of the partitions. At least that's how my 16 GB card is setup, 11 GB for FAT, 3-4 GB for partition, rest SWAP.

how do i fix this:

Package osso-software-version-rx44 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
osso-software-version-unlocked
E: Package osso-software-version-rx44 has no installation candidate

Erm, huh.

Well, osso-software-version-unlocked is a package rm_you put together to install the correct osso-software-version-rx*4-unlocked package.

Code:

apt-get remove osso-software-version-unlocked

Then try installing the osso-software-version-rx44 again.

Also do:

Code:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list

and post its output here.

I crashed my dual boot system with the latest upgrade Both Laughing man and General Atilles suggested I download Penguinbait's boot menu to restore my boot menu. I went on the site with the browser and clicked on the url that points to bootmenu.deb I clicked on it expecting the application manager to come up and install it (like the green download arrows), but it just sits there and downloads binary characters to the screen and nothing happens in the end. Obviously, I missed a step or two
