Package: linux-base Version: 2.6.33-1~experimental.2 Severity: serious Setting up linux-base (2.6.33-1~experimental.2) ... open: No such file or directory dosfslabel failed: 1536 at /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-base.postinst line 1087, <STDIN> line 10. dpkg: error processing linux-base (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 9
The line in the postinst reads, system('dosfslabel', $bdev, $label) == 0 or die "dosfslabel failed: $?";; Commenting out this line fixes the problem. The configure proceeds and warns that /dev/hda label may change, or similar. Of course, /dev/hda is a cdrom device so not sure why configure would even try touching it. Running `dosfslabel` on /dev/hda1 results in the same error as from the postinst script. $ sudo dosfslabel /dev/hda Logical sector size is zero. $ sudo dosfslabel /dev/hda1 open: No such file or directory Now, /dev/hda1 is not listed in any configfile... :/ - Adam -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (50, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages linux-base depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.24 Perl interface to libapt-pkg linux-base recommends no packages. linux-base suggests no packages. -- debconf information: linux-base/disk-id-manual: * linux-base/disk-id-convert-auto: true * linux-base/disk-id-convert-plan: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
