Interesting enough, the file did not get created at all. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ emsetup -v Checking apt cache data is up to date ...

I'll use unstable versions of your packages, and those that your packages depend on. Generally I don't like unstable since I had some bad experiences with stuff breaking down badly due to dependancy problems. > > > In addition to that, emchain is unable to fetch any files into > > /opt/emdebian (which is where I configured it to store files) unless ran > > with sudo.

Perhaps I should copy the existing one, but I'm getting kind-of tired right now ;) I really think that testing this in real time would be beneficial, and then posting the chat log somewhere "for posterity". > > (Since I'm trying to get it to work, I'm not sure if this is the exact > > procedure on how to use this package.

I surely will try to get emdebian to work, but for the time being, I'm kindof in a hurry and I'll try other methods of compiling the Linux kernel for my PocketPC ;) I'd also like to thank you for the time you're putting into EmDebian! Once it gets a bit more stable, it will surely make things easier. I'm looking at OpenEmbedded right now and its install procedure looks a bit intimidating. (And as I said, I know very little about the whole "Embedded Linux" thing, so I'm perhaps putting tools of very distinct target audience into the same basket, but that's the kind of thing that newbies tend to do, right? :) ) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
