interrupted dpkg can't be fixed because of filesystem location issue?
Somehow (I don't know for sure) when I was installing GIMP & Inkscape (last time I install two prgrams at the same time) via apt-get something went wrong and I got a message reading something-swap(space-I-think)-something (I won't lie, I was in a hurry so I just hit enter without reading throughly, now when I try to make an apt-get upgrade I get this:
Code:
debian:/home/oncozerov# apt-get upgrade Code:
debian:/home/oncozerov# dpkg --configure -a I hope this goes here, and yes, I've tried reading about dpkg, and initramfs, mkinitramfs, pendriving linux, but still I can't find aomething that'll get my in the right direction. I almost forgot, MODULES is already set to 'most'. That's it, thank you. |
dpkg is failing while trying to configure linux-image-2.6.26-1-686. Is this your current kernel or is it an old kernel package that you no longer use?
If you no longer use this kernel package then you could try deleting this package and then run configure again. -------------------- Steve Stites |
If my current kernel is the one that I get when I 'uname -r' then I'm afraid it is my current kernel, I'll keep trying to fix this but any other idea will be welcomed, thank you anyway for your attention.

Not sure if this is what you want, but you might check your /boot/grub/device.map file. That's the file that tells grub which device to consider hd0, etc. If there's an hdb entry there you might try removing it.

Well, there was indeed a sdb reference in that file, I've changed it already but I still get the exact same response from the dpkg, I'm beggining to belive there will be endless references to this location, guess I'll just have to keep looking for them, if you know any other filesystem location related files please tell me, but thank you anyway I'm convinced this got me a little bit closer to solve my problem.

Well people, for those of you interested, I've found what I've been looking for, my endless gratefulness to David the H. for it was using the file he suggested that I found the file I had to modify,
which was by the way /etc/fstab in case this is of any use to anyone, well, that'll be it, PROBLEM SOLVED. |
