Warning: failure while installing base packages. #94

Closed TheDutchCoder closed 8 years ago

TheDutchCoder commented 9 years ago

I'm getting this error haflway through doing a fresh install via USB.

Not sure how to proceed from here.

FWIW: I'm installing on a PC with no ethernet connection (right now), not sure if the installer tries to grab any remote packages or not.

Which hardware are you using?

TheDutchCoder commented 9 years ago

Good question, but I have a feeling my GPU isn't supported, as it's an older radeon and even my main PC has a 7950, which isn't supported (I was trying the build on my older PC). On Mar 21, 2015 6:52 PM, "Wouter Wijsman" notifications@github.com wrote:

The install shouldn't grab remote packages during the debian-installer phase, but an ethernet connection is absolutely mandatory for the Steam installing phase, and it'll all crash & burn there.

To know what isn't installing, we'll need to know where specifically it's failing - switch to a terminal with ctrl-alt-f2, take a look at syslog, and attach a photo of the first package install failure

I am also experiencing this issue. Here's the syslog output:

If it's relevant and needs be, I have the entire syslog file here to attach. (FWIW, I just used the shell to copy /var/log/syslog to /target/root/ and then accessed that with the ExtFS driver for Windows.)

directhex commented 9 years ago

Those logs are gold. Inexplicable, but something I can work from.

ArnoB commented 9 years ago
Hardware for the above:

I can find my motherboard make & model if I open 'er up, let me know if that's relevant.

Other troubleshooting steps I have followed:

Let me know if there's anything else I might try.

ArnoB commented 9 years ago

Also if relevant: The syslog contains a total of 1368 <package> already installed, skipping error messages from dpkg.

ArnoB commented 9 years ago

UPDATE: The StephensonsRocket159plus1.iso version installed perfectly. Will redo the other brokeninstallation if necessary for testing.

erlingn commented 9 years ago

I cloned this repo and generated an iso with gen.sh and got the same messages as above. I followed in ArnoB's footsteps and tried StephensonsRocket159plus1.iso, which worked!

sharkwouter commented 8 years ago

Seems to have been fixed some versions ago
