Hello Guys,
 

  
 

I’ve got a system running Voyage that’s out in
the field and has been giving me some issues of late, apt-get appears to have
completely destroyed itself and I can’t really do anything with the
system, No matter what I try I keep getting segmentation faults when trying to
install packages. I started having this problem after I changed my sources list
and ran the update, which didn’t run correctly and ever since I’ve
had problems.
 

  
 

So, I’m hoping to put a clean Voyage install onto the
system, however I will have to do this remotely as the box is in a completely
different country and I don’t have the means to be able to do a local
install on it.
 

  
 

Is it possible to install from a remote location? If so then
what’s my best method?
 

  
 

Thanks guys for any advice,
 

  
 

Rob
 






--------------------------------
Rob, I have used rsync clone remote system.  Please test before your run it on the remote system.

su root
rsync -aH ./voyage-current/ remote:/


You will want to make sure your boot loader has the correct kernel before you reboot.
