[pkg-fso-maint] [Fwd: Error installing Debian on neo freerunner]

Fri Mar 9 15:36:02 UTC 2012

Hi Rafael,

The partitioning / fdisk problems are documented at
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner#Which_distro_to_install_from.3F
- my first guess would be that the partitions are created wrong, and
therefore the space runs out.

Could you either try QtMoko, or if you don't want to reflash your NAND
distro make a SD card partitioning (simply for example one partition
filling the whole SD card) and formatting (mkfs.ext2 /dev/mmcblk0p0)
manually and then run eg. QI=true SINGLE_PART=true ./install.sh mount
debian apt fso configuration tasks kernel cleanup unmount ?

You may find other interesting information on the wiki page as well,
but feel also free to ask more questions on mailing list or IRC.

-Timo

> Hello, we are two computer engineering students who are making our final project on the Neo Freerunner. We have over a month trying to install Debian on the device using your script. We have conducted many tests, we bought two microSD cards 100% compatible with the device and we always find the same error, but not always at the same point in the script. We tested with two different devices and in both we find the same error. The following shows the output of the terminal:
