Ok - That's confirmed.

Hmm we can't go back, we can't go forward because Gotham has that Picture crash, so it may have to stay. Do you know if it is used much?

I have changed the sources.list to http://ivka57..... But when I run apt-get update it times out and gives me the error

Could not connect to ivka57.dyndns-ip.com:80 (5.178.58.228), connection timed out

Certainly sounds like the server is down.
Have you tried to ping it?

Seems to be up at my end.

I've been able to successfully ping "ivka57.dyndns-ip.com" but still no joy when i run "apt-get update"

Does this seem right? It worked the first time but halfway through the update, my girlfriend decided to unplug the pi to use the hair dryer! I did a fresh format of the SD card and restarted the whole process again but this time I am now getting this error.

So, my apt-get install xbian-update has been running for about 28hrs, and it still says "Preconfiguring Packages..." and hasnt changed screens. I can still ping the Pi, but cannot open a new SSH to the PI.

How long does this install typically take? Should I just reformat and try again...or does this just take a while longer?

Thanks!

You should be done within an hour. Something is obviously wrong.

@mk01

Could you at least warn us when your server will be down, it is quite aggrevating to have an update break mid-process!

Is the server down? I haven't read this anywhere.

Yes the server is down, try an apt update.


RE: beta2 - namtih - 28th Sep, 2013 05:27 PM

Yeah, probably it is or at least seems to have an issue.
As it is a private local machine of mk01, we have to wait for an statement of him, sorry.

But I know it's planned to move the development environment to a complete new server, so that this shouldn't happen again in the future.

Thanks for the update. I'll stop trying the update and wait for an update from mk01 [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]

Cheers guys

I know that the possibility to boot from usb being developed, but could this also be used to boot from NFS?

I tried it with Beta 1.1 but couldn't get the settings right for fstab and cmdline.txt.

Are there any people who succeeded in doing this?

I believe mk01 does this currently, or it may be ricardo1979...either way it's already possible.

Six hours and the server is still down Confused
