Or, more likely, since the maemo.org and Nokia Maemo-related services are currently down. . . .

The /home/user/.chroot file needs this:
Code:
IMGFILE=/dev/mtdblock4
IMGFS=jffs2
It will fail to mount the partition, but you've already mounted it manually, and then it works.

I was able to do apt-get -f install in the chroot, and it installed then rebooted automatically... back to my flash partition! Yay!

Note, I cleared some space to get it to finish the install... You'll need to do it too, if you're in this boat.

Hi,

I've done successfully all steps up to changing the .chroot file.

What would be the next step?

I've tried /sbin/debian and gives the error:

Code:

 
Setting up the chroot...

/sbin/debian: line 112: gxmessage: not found

Thanks.

Did I just do the same? I couldn't get maemo-recorder to install with app manager so I tried to do it with apt-get install, but I got the same message I got when I first installed diablo telling me to apt-get -f install.........

this doesn't work for some reason. i read this thread and nobody seems to have the same problems. this is what happens in xterm.

/home/user # apt-get clean
/home/user # apt-get install osso-software-version-rx34-unlocked

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Just a note, if you are unsure about space,

mkdir /media/mmc2/cache/apt/archives
rm /var/cache/apt/archives
ln -s /media/mmc2/cache/apt/archives /var/cache/apt/archives

(It's a little trick I learnt from http://mariusv.wordpress.com/2008/05...sant-surprise/ when installing *everything* (a total chinook to diablo install

))

@Saturn

[s]Dunno why using qole's chroot scripts is an requirement.[/s]. (Thanks Bundyo!)
If you are root and mounted mtdblock4 on /debian,
just run "chroot /debian"

maemo.org and related Nokia services are currently down.

Anyone trying to update or install applications from Nokia and maemo.org sources will be unable to.

@qwerty12:

You also have to mount /dev /proc /sys and /tmp

Before chrooting.

EDIT: With --bind.

mount --bind /dev [your-mount-point]/dev

Well, looks like the ISP jumped the gun a bit on the server move (location, not hardware, yet, but it was supposed to be tomorrow). Everything should be back up later today.

The good news is this is the first step for getting the new servers for maemo.org in place.

I had some problems with the update. Long time ago, I had the bad idea of running an apt-get remove gizmo-installer. For some reason in the dependency handling of apt-get, apt-get kindly suggested me to remove some packages that were no longer required:

Code:

initfs-flasher kernel-diablo-flasher flash-and-reboot

oops... I said yes. This screwed up the update: only part of the updates were installed yesterday on my N810, and the system did not reflash nor reboot itself. I struggled for a while in the attempt to re-install the packages that I had accidentally removed, and in the end I had to go for a quicker fix: reflashing the tablet. Has anybody else incurred in the accidental removal of these packages? Is there a smarter fix than what I did?
