So I just gave this a shot on my SunBlade 2500 and ran into a small issue when the installer gets to the point for Installing the base system. "The debootstrap program exited with an error (return value 127)." With in my syslog I see the following,
Nov 27 14:59:43 cdrom-detect: Detected CD with 'unstable' (sid) distribution Nov 27 14:59:43 anna-install: Installing eject-udeb Nov 27 14:59:46 anna-install: Installing apt-mirror-setup Nov 27 14:59:46 anna-install: Installing apt-cdrom-setup Nov 27 14:59:46 anna-install: Installing sid-support Nov 27 14:59:46 cdrom-checker[12528]: (process:14134): unknown udeb sid-support Nov 27 14:59:47 main-menu[232]: DEBUG: resolver (libgcc1): package doesn't exist (ignored) Nov 27 14:59:47 main-menu[232]: INFO: Falling back to the package description for brltty-udeb Nov 27 14:59:49 main-menu[232]: INFO: Falling back to the package description for brltty-udeb Nov 27 14:59:49 main-menu[232]: INFO: Menu item 'bootstrap-base' selected Nov 27 14:59:50 debootstrap: sh: apt_dest: unknown operand Nov 27 14:59:50 debootstrap: /usr/sbin/debootstrap: line 607: : Permission denied I can attached the complete log for the syslog but I think that the above is the important section. Let me know what you think. -Kieron Gillespie On Tue, Nov 22, 2016 at 3:43 AM, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi! > > After a half year break, I have finally created new installer images for > Debian sparc64.
