Hi,

You are doing everything right, so don't worry. What that error means is that the file you want to install is not available (doesn't exist anymore) at that internet address. You need to find it from somewhere else.

Hi,

installed the sulu image on my N900. I would like to run emacs (or at least R). However when I call

Code:
apt-get install emacs
or

Code:
apt-get install r-recommended
I get the same errors as nicholes. Any ideas?

Thanks Sigbert

Hi,

I found a solution under: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1147275

The sulu image has no /etc/groups file, therefore no group crontab exists. so, I created the group with:

Code:
groupadd crontab
and I try to install R now.
