Comments/Problems: I partitioned the SCSI disk using Partition Magic.
During the installation I chose Manual partitioning and merely gave the
mount points for the two ext3-partitions (/boot and /). During the
"Install base system" I got the following error message:
Debootstrap warning:
Failure trying to run: chroot /target dpkg --force-depends --install
var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_4_i386.dev
var/cache/apt/archives/base-passwd_3.5.11_i386.deb
Next came the following explanation:
Base system installation error:
The debootstrap program exited with an error (return value 1).
Check /var/log/syslog or see virtual console 4 for the details.
When I hit left-alt/f4 I saw messages like:
debootstrap: /usr/sbin/debootstrap: 413
debootstrap: cannot create /target/debootstrap/debpaths: read-only file
system
debootstrap: tar: couldnt remove old file: read-only file system
All this is gibberish to me. Could you please help?
