install not working on Galaxy Nexus

[SteMo]

Hi all,

I'm trying to setup Debian on my rooted Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.1.1 using lildebi. I built it successfully and pushed it on my phone. Next, i started lildebi app and wanted to download and install debian - no success. Hence, I downloaded the image and pushed it on the SD card. Now, when I push the button "Configure Image" I get the output "Unknown id: sh". I attached my ddms log too:

I would appreciate any hints and ideas.

hmm, seems like 4.1 has different 'su' syntax. Could you try replacing all instances of "su - sh" with "su -c sh"

[eighthave]

I just pushed a bunch of changes, including some that directly address this. I even made a binary for easy installation: https://guardianproject.info/builds/LilDebi/

Could you test and report back if it works for you or not?

[SteMo]

Thanks for your quick reply eighthave! Replacing "su - sh" with "su -c sh" for each instance worked for me. The following classes had to be modified: src/info/guardianproject/lildebi/InstallService.java src/info/guardianproject/lildebi/OnBootService.java src/info/guardianproject/lildebi/LilDebi.java I did it before your second post but had no time to respond - I'll check your build tomorrow.

Your build didn't work for me. I tried to locate the error but didn't succeed, so I captured 2 logs for you:

I just saw this problem on my friend's Samsung Galaxy S3. If you look further up the log, do you see a Java stacktrace? It should tell you something like: can't unzip "kioskmode". Basically, the assets included in the .apk didn't get unpacked properly, so your app is missing the file that is being executed. I just committed some fixes to try to make the asset unpacking more robust.

I think this is fixed, please comment and/or reopen this bug if it is not.
