<br>
Shot in the dark, but check your /etc/apt/sources.list<br>
<br>
Usually the command prompt of "apt-get update" would have shown
some unresolved/unavailable sources. Comment them out e.g. to
check if that is the problem.<br>
Also make sure your Inet settings work properly, otherwise apt-get
wouldn't be able to check the sources anyway. But I guess you did
check that already.<br>
<br>
Greets and good luck,<br>
Markus<br>
<br>
PS: If the problem persists, prompt a little bit more detailed
screen info, which you see.<br>

saga continues. I booted my Kubuntu computer into Puppy Linux and

read-write and added APCI=off. Neither change helped. Then I tried
disconnecting the Soekris board's internal HD and then the long
delays and the lost interrupt errors went away. Now it boots and
if I then do the "remountrw" command all is well. Next I tried to
edit the lilo.conf file in voyage with nano. Nano wasn't found so
I tried vi which I don't know well at all. I was using gtkterm in
Kubuntu which then got all messed up. Other people have also had
that problem I found. Then I tried SSH into the board and that
worked and I could edit with vi. then I tried "apt-get update" to
prepare to install nano to see if I could. That gave we a
MergeList error in /var/lib/apt/lists/security.debian . . . and
said the the package list could not be parsed or opened or some
such thing.

Thanks,

'sync' or a clean reboot makes the changes permanent.

When I tried to shut it down, it stated giving me the same

Ok Guesses/things I would check

Bad CF

CF slot.

Maybe the IDE mode can be changed

APCI

APM

<br>
Interesting. I only have one CF card so I can't try another
one. This one
<br>
was working fine in my camera from where I took it. I also
don't have any
<br>
way to test the CF slot. I don't see any way to change the IDE
mode on this
<br>
board.
<br>
<br>
So, I thought, OK I can investigate the APCI and APM options.
I looked at
<br>
my lilo.conf file and found a line in the image section that
said
<br>
"read-only." Thinking that that might be the problem, I tried
to edit the
<br>
file. Problem is the CF card mounts as read-only on my Kubuntu
system. I
<br>
can't seem to find a way to edit the file. Got any
suggestions? BTW, there
<br>
is no APCI reference either on or off in the current lilo.conf
file. I also
<br>
noticed that when voyage is booting, there is a point where it
says
<br>
"Mounting locale file system" and that indicates that it
fails. That is
<br>
probably related to the read-only status. I just don't know
enough about
<br>
this to be able to fix it my self.
<br>
<br>
Thanks,
<br>
