Hello, my first multistrap test was successful, I like this approach more than the old emsandbox I used before.
A few points I have: - udev in grip squeeze (151-3em1) does not detect mtbblockx devices, I replaced the udevd executables with an older version from another embedded distro and it worked as expected. Thus I tried this: [General] arch=armel directory=rootfs_unconfigured cleanup=true noauth=true unpack=true debootstrap=Grip aptsources=GripSqueeze GripLenny Debian [GripSqueeze] packages=usbutils openssh-server iputils-ping telnetd source=http://www.emdebian.org/grip keyring=emdebian-archive-keyring suite=squeeze [GripLenny] packages=udev source=http://www.emdebian.org/grip keyring=emdebian-archive-keyring suite=lenny [Debian] packages=ftpd source=http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/ keyring=debian-archive-keyring suite=lenny I still get the squeeze version instead of the the lenny one (0.125-7em1). -the ftpd package is missing in grip, thus I use the normal Debian repository. - I am configuring the generated multistrap fs with qemu-arm. I need to do this first: DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive DEBCONF_NONINTERACTIVE_SEEN=true LC_ALL=C LANGUAGE=C LANG=C dpkg --configure -a then I get: Errors were encountered while processing: dash libgdbm3 libgssapi-krb5-2 libreadline6 gnupg emdebian-archive-keyring openssh-server debian-archive-keyring perl openssh-client bash gpgv apt ifupdown grip-config libfile-copy-recursive-perl debconf module-init-tools libpam0g update-inetd libssl0.9.8 sysv-rc libpam-modules tzdata dhcp3-client openbsd-inetd adduser wget passwd libpam-runtime sysvinit initscripts ftpd ntpdate udev util-linux login libuuid1 procps netbase telnetd mount libblkid1 e2fsprogs I need to make a link with "/bin/ln -s /bin/dash /bin/sh" and another DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive DEBCONF_NONINTERACTIVE_SEEN=true LC_ALL=C LANGUAGE=C LANG=C dpkg --configure -a results in: Errors were encountered while processing: dash ifupdown grip-config bash and finally another configure -a succeeds with all packages. Would be nice if one configure is enough. Regards, Marco
