Well, I don't want to reflash since I'll loose all my tweaks, settings, addons mounts and so forth. But perhaps that is what it will come to. Or I will just spend the time on configuring Plex Media Server on my FreeNAS instead. |

RE: dpkg error when running apt-get upgrade.
Using the Xbian installer you can take an image with all your settings and tweaks and it's really easy to reflash that and all is back as it should be.
I hope this helps. FWIW I tried again to upgrade but the problem this time was that the pi stuck on the 'rebooting' message and I had to power off and now am reflashing the card again. Skywatch |

RE: dpkg error when running apt-get upgrade.
I'm trying to get Beta 2 installed. Hit the initscripts problem which this thread has a linkt to the fix for - applied the fix and it broke ssh. Sterling effort. Rolling back to Beta 1.1. Was hoping for good things for Beta 2 but if getting there is so problematic I might as well stick with 1.

RE: dpkg error when running apt-get upgrade.
The only link in this thread for initscripts issue caused by two days old deb upgrades from Upstream is not in any way related to Beta2. Beta2 has no use of mountall.* scripts as it uses mountall daemon and upstart.
Mountall.* files in init.d directory are only .placeholders to provide backward compatibility and specialities like the problematic checkfs.sh and others this kind are in Beta2 missing completely. Also core services like for instance ssh are in Beta2 not dependent on sysv script dependencies / runlevels in any way - it can't get broken this way. For sure you will hit the issue if updating to Beta2 after the Debian packages were released - because the system is not Beta2 yet. In that case you can happily leave package unconfigured dpkg should be able to roll other packages. Once beta2 finishes install the initscripts package should be pass configuration step without problems. Please read rules and do a search before you post! . FAQs . How to post log file? .

RE: dpkg error when running apt-get upgrade.
since initscripts is being updated as part of the apt-get upgrade step, no other packages are upgraded. Show stopper?

RE: dpkg error when running apt-get upgrade.
Guys, anyone, just send me to back to an English lessons if it is so hard to understand me.
I will not repeat the details for fourth time, so only in general. 1) you starts upgrade (apt-get upgrade) 2) apt-get interrupts with initscripts issue 3) you do the two steps I wrote to three different forums 4) you run apt-get upgrade again (to continue) It is second last sentence in my post above. Unconfigured package (but unpacked) the system is not issue . As you correct the problem (point (3)) - restarts the process - apt will simply configure the unconfigured package (initscripts) and upgrade continues. and don't tell me it's not like this. my upgrade step finished and now install xbian update is running Friends?

RE: dpkg error when running apt-get upgrade.
This is why I think it would be less trouble to have a section on the main page with all the latest instructions on the current updates and how to do them.
Currently there is no reference point I can see on this site for this or known problems. Maybe it's just me and I am not looking in the right place? Skywatch |

RE: dpkg error when running apt-get upgrade.
I got this problem yesterday and I found a fix on the internet, today my system froze and didn't want to boot xbian again so I reinstalled all and updated and got the same problem again, but I can't find where I found the fix anymore
What the fix was that I edited some file in the system where all the packages were listed in (guessing somewhere in /etc/init.d/) with information and a lot so I had to go trough pages and pages of text until I found initscripts and deleted all text that was about it, saved the file and did apt-get upgrade and everything went perfect again! I'm still searching after this page and if I find it I'll post it here. EDIT: FOUND IT! It was a link in a link in a post about around the same problem... How to do: nano /var/lib/dpkg/status search for "Package: initscripts" remove ALL lines under that is about this package save and run apt-get install -f if you want, run apt-get clean; apt-get update; apt-get upgrade to get all updated and ready to go |

RE: dpkg error when running apt-get upgrade.
Hi,
After putting deb http://xbian.brantje.com wheezy main into sources, I managed to update/upgrade xbian 1.0 beta 1.1. Now everything works well except that when I execute in shell "sudo poweroff" my rpi is restarted instead of poweroff. Does anyone know why? Regards. |
