Re: [Cooker] mkcd.pl, timezones, wheel mouse.....
Hi, I've been watching this thread for a while and it helped me to fix the problem with the 34kB CD1. Now I get a 651.5MB CD1, 534.5MB CD2 and 252MB CD3. I tried to install Cooker from scratch but when it checked for packages I got the message: ... error encountered (or so): depslist ordered mismatch against hdlist files ... and on the terminal I get after a while: ... signal SIGSEGV received, but no signal handler set signal SIGSEGV received, but no signal handler set signal SIGSEGV received, but no signal handler set signal SIGSEGV received, but no signal handler set install exited abnormally :-( --received signal 11 ... Did someone experience the same? What could be wrong? Did I mirror the site wrong? (BTW with wget -rm ...) I also thought of doing a Mandrake live update with the first CD. The system seems to be busy for a whilecopying files and I get no error message, but when I check some packages, nothing has been updated. I'm quite unexperienced with the Mandrake tools, what am I doing wrong here as well? Does the hdlist thing above also prevent live update from working correctly? Thanks for any help...

The a argunent to rsync means 'archive', and that means a literal copy of the user and group numbers for each file from the site you are archiving. The permissions are also literally copied.

It seems as if rpms containing a '+' will never make their way into the isos... Is this because of mkcd.pl, or mkisofs? Amongst others these are libgtk, timidity, libstdc++ and others. They are in the repository, they are included in base/rpmslist, they get processed by mkcd.pl - at least, it finds them - but they are not on the iso images Could someone comment on this? p00h It seems that RPMs that contain a + On K, 16 JAN 2001 20:36:01 Terry Nelms wrote: > I don't believe it matters how you install.

I don't believe it matters how you install. I have tried hd, cd, and network. All of them complain about the timezone config files being missing. This has been happening for quite some time now. It's probably been over a month since I have been able to get cooker to install.

As I understand, the script will create as many CDs as listed in Mandrake/base/rpmslist... At default, it will create 3 CD-s See http://www.mail-archive.com/cooker@linux-mandrake.com/msg25918.html and the thread on this... However, I still don't know what is happening with timezones:( p00h

[Cooker] mkcd.pl, timezones, wheel mouse.....
I've seen a thread concerning mkcd.pl and 34Meg iso files. It happened to me as well. Now, if you grep for mkisofs in the log file, you'll se that images/all.img is missing. Changing "images/all.img" to "images/cdrom.img" in the mkcd.pl script should solve your problems - Maybe an rm -rf /tmp/build_hdlist is also a good idea before recompilation. If you run into troubles when you change your mouse type to wheel mouse during install,move the wheel _first_ and then the mouse -and do it _slowly_. After a few seconds, the mouse was back to normal.(A4Tech 4d mouse) I suspect that this will be the case for all IMPS/2 types... I have rsynced sunsite.uio.no just a few hours ago, but I run into the same problem as I did yesterday (I install from cdrom). Namely: packages are all set up - the next step would be timezone configuration, but the installer complains that it cannot find the timezone config files And you'll not be able to go on to the next step (services config) since the installer just keeps complaining... I can't analyze the logs, since perl keeps complaining about unsupported locales and messes up the console screen ;( - and I cannot set the locale to C... This way, it is a little hard to troubleshoot cd installation. Text mode expert installation had frozen the whole system hard. p00h
