Did you switch your "/" file system to "rw" mode prior to apt-get?
The default is "ro" and that could explain the error.
Yes, I believe that I did but it has been a while now and my memory of
what I did has faded.
After working on it for a while, I decided to give up and try
the Ubuntu route. I know that isn't helpfull for anyone else having
problems
with Voyage on a 5501, but on the other hand, I did get my system up and
running.
Yes, I have also taken the Ubuntu route and installed it on a flash
disk (for thin client Proof of Concept). However, make sure it does
not create a swap partition on your Flash drive. IIRC, with Ubuntu
/var/log/messages is also "rw" this could shorten the life of your
compact flash.
Whereas in VL it is on a tmpfs - so there is no wear and tear on the
flash disk.
Thanks for the tip. Actually my Ubuntu installation is on a hard disk so I
am not running on CF at all.
