I've posted a message earlier about dpkg not installing....I found the source of problem. Turned out after the upgrade of almost all vital packages filesystems do not umount at hte poweroff/reboot. Also, the disk is 16.4% non-contigiuos. That was causing problems with certain files, which happened to be the /var/lib/dpkg/info files. I had to do trick the dpkg into believing everything was ok. (remove the files completely corrupted, replace and improvise other files).
Any way to defrag the partition? defrag does not seem to be working, it gives me error message: bad magic number in super block TIA, Andrew --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrei S.
