Hi,
I am a big fan of Voyage, I have installed it quite a few times and really love
the simplicity of it.  I admit Im not very familiar with the more technical
aspects of linux, but I'm getting there!

But I am having a very frustrating problem getting quagga to work.  I need it to
connect to our community network.  The strange thing is, when I first apt-get
install quagga, the zebra and bgpd daemons run, but when I reboot, I get this
error:

Starting Quagga daemons (prio:10): zebrabind: No such file or directory
 bgpd.

I first thought it was looking for either zebrabind or bgpd. I then realised it
should look like this:

Starting Quagga daemons (prio:10): zebra bgpd.

but had this in the middle:

bind: No such file or directory

I am assuming that the /etc/init.d/quagga script uses bind and it cant find a
file.  or something!

The hardware is a PCEngines WRAP 1E (2 ethernet, 2 senao minipci, 256Mb CF card)


I'll run through what I have done to try and give as much info as I can.

1) install voyage
2) apt-get update and upgrade
3) apt-get install apt-utils
4) add the zebra.conf and bgpd.conf to /etc/quagga and edit daemons to start
zebra and bgpd
5) apt-get install quagga
6) ps -e and zebra and bgpd is in the list
7) reboot and now the above error.

at first I thought that the package wasnt getting installed correctly, as a few
times I got a "no space left on device" error, which was strange because it is
256 Mb. and I couldnt find bgpd in /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin.  Then I
saw in /etc/fstab that the tmpfs was 5Mb and the archive extracts to about
4.5Mb, so I thought maybe that was too small and changed it to 15Mb.  The bgpd
and zebra files are actually in /usr/lib/quagga.

I have no idea what file it is looking for, and google wasn't any help.

If anyone has an idea for a solution, I'd appreciate the help!

BTW, is voyage still being developed? It looks like there has been a slowdown in
the devel.

Thanks...

Brian
