Fedora :: Dropbox Does Not Unpack?
Jun 20, 2011
I am trying some time now to get drobox going. After resolving problems with the repo-file it is now downloading fine then stops unpacking by 97 %. I tried using threads which tell that it is selinux which does not give permissions for the install. Trying to block selinux during the installation has not worked out. Is there a way to get it going it is something I do need every day?

I have 2 Dell Inspirons 2200, I've installed F14 on in the past. Both laptops fail to initialize, I've verified media, and I'm able to boot the DVD on another system. The install fails at: Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs...

I've had a hell of a time with an extremely unpredictable recently built computer. I don't even know where to start with thetory, so I'll try to share some key facts.Running Fc12It is a Gigabyte GA-EP45T-UD3LR. Reviews on NewEgg havee complaints about instability and it's lack of claimed DDR3 support. I had to use setting described by another reviewer to underclock my memory to get it to work. It has since passed memtest many times.I've encountered mutliple occasions of a complete system freeze.
Booting after freeze seems to require a random amount of restarts to get it to come up. Sometimes I have to hit the reset button 30+ times until I can get the log in prompt to come up.Right now, I have one SATA HDD, in IDE compatibility mode in the system. dropped the FC12 Stable dvd in, the very DVD I installed the current system with, to install it again on another partition. I get to the same point every time, where it hangs:"trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs"Googling that didn't help me much, since it mostly seemed to address people messing with their own kernel builds.
If I choose "boot from local drive" on the options list from the install DVD, it goes to "PRESS ANY KEY TO REBOOT" with a blinking underscore cursor. Where when I boot normally, it will either give me JUST the blinking underscore alone, or the FC loading screen with no progress. I suspect this motherboard is a pile of **** and needs to be RMA'ed, or simply returned. Anyone care to support or reject that hypothesis?

I've been looking for a good alternative to Dropbox - just a little too pricey for me. And I just discovered Amazon Cloud Drive. Has anyone here had any luck setting up some sort of automated backup solution using Amazon Cloud Drive? I've been all over their site, but I just don't see any other way to access the cloud drive other then via their web interface.
Optimally, I am looking for a solution that will allow me to simply set up an rsync script or similar that would sync up a folder to a cloud drive every few days. Maybe their S3 tools can be used to do this?

Is there a way to share files over a VPN with a Dropbox type download system? I want the files to be able to update to a local file on the clients when updated on the server.

I just did a clean install and started with the software installation. After I installed dropbox, a window popped up asking me for administrator's password....I put in my user password and it said wrong password (i just now remembered not adding myself to administrator's group while creating my user...ouch!) after which a notficiation came and went too fast for me to read it properly....it said something like unable to set user /etc/x something something.....I know it sounds completely vague but that is all I could before it disappeared.
Now, nautilus won't open unless I click on the dropbox icon below in the taskbar.I guess I can manage for a while but I'm hoping to find a solution to the problem.

Does anyone know how (and if) I can unpack Enlightenment theme files (*.edj) under Windows XP? I used to unpack tar files to use some graphic elements under windows (I am a Blackbox for Windows themer) but since Enlightenment theme files switched to .edj I can't open them anymore. Is there a Windows application that can help me with this? Can I change the extension to tar or something (I used to do that in the past) and unpack the files

I was wondering if anyone has dropbox working on their machine. I have dropbox on my Win7 and my Ubuntu machines. There is no Opensuse package available on their site.

I have a new install of OpenSuse 64-bit. I've stumbled around blindly and seem to have installed Dropbox using dropbox-lnx.x86_64-1.1.24.tar.gz. It apparently worked because I was able to enter successfully my Dropbox log-on information.
I have no idea what to do next. There's no indication of any synchronisation in Dolphin. Dropbox installation in Ubuntu/Mint is a no-brainer but this has me stumped.

Have you used dropbox to sync your mail dirs? Was it a disaster? ... ? I have been using dropbox to sync across three ubuntu machines (two with 9.04, one with 10.04) and a windows vista machine, for about six months. I've seen a couple of oddities but am basically very happy with it. I pay for their 50GB store.
For email I use mutt and download (fetchmail) separately onto two of the ubuntu machines, outside the dropbox folders. It's a bit irritating maintaining two different mail dirs, but it does make for more security. I'm now thinking about putting the mail dirs into the dropbox folder. But if something then goes wrong with the syncing, it will be serious.

I'm a user of dropbox, I use it to save my pc. Today I've discovered that I do not have Dropbox installed.I tried to install it quickly, but I was unable. I receive astrange error, that seems like if I'm using a newer library.Are there some repo than I can add to try to install Dropbox by the aptitude or apt-get command?

I've tried with the help of some older topics about Dropbox to install Dropbox. But for some reason Dropbox can't be installed no longer?? Or am I searching on the wrong place?? See screenshot.

This is a recent problem, may be about a week. Upon booting my computer, Dropbox does not connect to the internet. I have to stop dropbox from the top panel and run it again from the menu. Then only it connects.

I have a series of system usability bash scripts that I sync with dropbox (and share with other friends that I have set ubuntu up on) and then have those folders sym linked to ~/bin. The problem is, when I change something on one computer, the scripts lose executability on other computers. First, I guess I will ask, is there a way to stop this from happening?
Failing that, is there a way that I can have Dropbox's events monitored so that when something is updated, it runs a script on my Script folder adding 'chmod +x' to all the bash scripts. This is the simple nautilus-script that I am currently using to easily batch change the modes:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
#token: nautilus-script
for FILE in *
do
chmod +x "$FILE"

whether it's safe to install Dropbox in Ubuntu 10.04. It seems to be easy enough: [URL] and here for people who like me need to be held by the hand with simplest things: [URL] But as a newbie to ubuntu I've been burnt trying out seamless things that turn into tweaking nightmares that I can't manage. It would be useful to receive any prior warning as to how Dropbox cohabits with Gnome, Nautilus or anything relevant in Ubuntu 10.04.

Just need my own repository for storage away from the laptop....still have the deb on hand just in case I want to reinstall....
Here is my issue. I installed dropbox and removed it. I noticed in the first start of dropbox it installs a daemon called dropboxd. Is dropboxd removed when you uninstall? I uninstalled and purged. I just want to make sure the daemon is gone as well. Trying to be as tidy as possible. Less code rolling around the better.

Ok I have used dropbox for a long time but never had an issue but since recently switching to Ubuntu it seems that when I download a file and drag it into my dropbox the file shows in dropbox but it doesn't seem to be applying ...after dragging it into dropbox in the upper right hand corner of the file there is a blue circle with two white arrows in it while all existing files that I out into dropbox prior to using Ubuntu are there and accessible and have a green checkmark in the upper right hand corner..

I just installed Dropbox using urpmi command and it seems to install okay but when I run dropbox, I never see it listed in Nautilus file browser. I do have Openbox with the Tint2 panel installed and no icon there either. Dropbox never did ask me about my DB account information. This is the 64bit version.
