2009-05-27 Thread Kim, In-Jae

Thank you all.
I found that I was running Ubutu on CD ROM without actually installing Ubuntu 
using VirtualBox.
I installed Ubuntu properly, and memory problem disappeared.
I now have sage 3.4.2 installed, which is working well.

You had created a virtual machine without enough disk space. You
should create a new virtual machine with at least 4 GB of disk space.
Then you could install Ubuntu and Sage on it without worry about disk
space.

I wanted to use sage in Linux system so that I installed Ubuntu using 
VirtualBox into my laptop with Window Vista OS.  The version of Ubuntu that I 
have is 9.04.

What kind of PC is that with only half a gig of disk space?
Is it some kind of netbook? You might need a proper laptop or
desktop, or perhaps you can install it on a larger USB key.

Perhaps start with something simpler like install on a desktop
until you are more familiar with Linux.

In the meantime, which version of Ubuntu do you run? If it is 8.10,
you can probably use this file:
http://www.sagemath.org/bin/linux/32bit/sage-3.4.2-linux-Ubuntu_8.10-sse2-i686-Linux.tar.gz

We can only untar and use it once you have made more space.

(It is actuall also suggested to compile from source as then you can
in future do much lighter upgrades than redownloading.)

Maybe you can google "resizing partitions in ubuntu" (without the quotes)
to get an idea of what is involved?

That said, it would be good if Sage were to do some quick checks at
startup and give more useful
error messages.  E.g., it could easily check that you're on a
64/32-bit computer that corresponds to
the binary, and if not issue a helpful error message.  Also, it could
give a warning if the operating system
doesn't match what the binary is for.

no space left means, that there is no disk space left. extracting
files needs some place to be extracted!
entering the command

you will see an overview, how much space is left.

Hello William,

I also have a problem of downloading sage 3.4.2 into Ubuntu (32 bit).
I have been trying to install sage into Ubuntu (which was installed by 
VirtualBox in my laptop with Window vista OS).  However, when I extract the 
sage files, there are some errors, saying "...No space left in the device".  I 
am a beginner of any Linux system.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

All the best,

He downloaded the wrong binary for his computer/OS.  Maybe he
downloaded a 64-bit binary for a 32-bit operating system or something.

*Precisely* what operating system are you using and on exactly what

For #2, it sounds like you are trying to build from source with the
binary, which doesn't work.  If you download the source and try again
it should be OK.  While this takes around 2 hours (depending on your
machine of course), it does make upgrading easier.

I am not sure what is wrong with #1, since I never use the binaries.
Probably someone else can help with that.
