I run etch , and an issue i alway had and i never found an official solution is
Code:
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
i sometimes get over it running
Code:
# apt-get -f install
but , most of the times even this is not enough that's the all output:
Code:
root@phone:~# apt-get install autofs
