Re: Interesting apt problem during update

2007-10-29 Thread Chris Andrew
Unfortunately this didn't solve my problem.  I tried many difference
options from the apt man pages, but kept getting a libc6 (I think)
error.  This is provided by apt, which can't be upgraded.  I couldn't
install a 2.6 kernel without this.

My uname shows that i'm running Etch, but it's broken :-(

Hi,

Unfortunately this didn't solve my problem.  I tried many difference
options from the apt man pages, but kept getting a libc6 (I think)
error.  This is provided by apt, which can't be upgraded.  I couldn't
install a 2.6 kernel without this.

Be happy. My box is unbootable right now:

SPARCstation 20 MP (2 X 390Z55), No Keyboard
ROM Rev. 2.15, 192 MB memory installed, Serial #3528342.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:21:68:97, Host ID: 7235d696.

Rebooting with command:   
Boot device: /iommu/sbus/[EMAIL PROTECTED],40/[EMAIL 
PROTECTED],80/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:a  File and args: 
SProgram terminated
Type  help  for more information
#0 ok dis

Looks like a broken silo to me.

I seriously doubt that the default 2.6 kernel from etch will work on your
SS20 anyway, because of the old ESP-driver problem when it's build as module.

My 2.6.23.1 kernel was self compiled - that was the first version of 2.6 I
ever got booted on that box. I'll try to install the sarge lilo next weekend,
just came home from work

CU,
Uli

Run 'apt-get check' to see what is broken.
If you feel up to it you can try an 'apt-get -f' as well,
depending on what check reports.

Ran into the same issue 2 weeks ago. I thought I'd just been
hacking away too much. :)
Got around this by net-booting a kernel and running silo -f.

Re: Interesting apt problem during update

2007-10-28 Thread Chris Andrew
Hi,

I've had exactly the same problem.  The only way I could get my
SparcStation20 to have installed Debian, without any problems like
this one, was to do a Sarge install and keep the /etc/apt/sources.list
referring to the CD only.  The machine works brilliantly, but does not
get any updates.  Sort of half a win!

I tried all sorts of things, including the dist-upgrade route, but
still no luck.

Thanks,

Chris.

 Hi,

 I'm having a problem with apt during a dist-upgrade from sarge to etch
 on a sparc32 machine (still running a 2.4 kernel - but stock 2.6.23.1
 does boot on this box, so after the upgrade I will try to get this running).

 I had some dpkg-processes being stuck in non-interruptible sleep and had
 to reboot twice to get rid of them; now I have:
