Slackware :: Pkgtool Not Been Created With Makepkg
Jan 22, 2010I installed a slackware package using pkgtool.
At the end of the install process I get the following warning: WARNING: Package has not been created with 'makepkg'
It appears that the package was installed if I look at the file system. I see new files/directories from the package. But, when I try to launch the new application from /usr/bin I get this error: No such file or directory
I am a normal user "su -" to root when I did the pkgtool install and when I tried to run the application from /usr/bin.
I can see the binary in /usr/bin with a directory listing with the following permissions. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root
I see the application as installed in the pkgtool and can un-install it.
why I can not launch the binary in /usr/bin?

May 13, 2011I'm on Fedora 14 and tried to install virtualbox using yum install virtualbox It seemed to install but wouldn't run and I got messages saying there was an issue with it not recognising the kernel. I used the Add/Remove software function and added the right kernel but on reboot it didn't complete the boot up process. I get as far as the loading progress bar being fully loaded but don't get to the login screen I've tried loading earlier kernels to no avail - the same issue.
I can access the install via my live CD but I'm not that experienced a user and how to proceed. My guess is I need to remove all the Virtualbox components but I don't know how from where I am.

Installation :: Fedora 14 Won't Install In VirtualBox / Why Is So?
Feb 10, 2011I am trying to take a look at Fedora for the 1st time and usually like to have a good tryout of a distro in VirtualBox.
Firstly, the live cd image boots up fine and seems to work ok except for a Kernel crash at the beginning of the gnome session, but it does enable basic usage within the live system.
But, when trying to do an actual hd install (still within VBox) Fedora 14 just keeps on crashing the VBox??, every install attempt just aborts, I have given the virtual machine a 20gb virtual hd, 2gb ram, 128mb video ram and have not applied any "unusual" extra settings. All versions of Ubuntu, Mint and PCLinuxOS work flawlessly within VBox.
Has anyone else tried installing into VirtualBox here?? (not just running the live environment)
I've wasted a good few hours with this, is it just that some distros dont like VirtualBox or is this indicative of what Fedora would be like on a real non virtual install??
ps, I have the latest VirtualBox fully updated and a flawless host (Mint 9), and perhaps I should add that I'm not a Linux expert and have only been using Linux for just under a year now.
OpenSUSE Install :: VirtualBox, Use It To Run Windows?
Feb 25, 2010openSUSE, just installed 11.2 some days ago and have several problems with kernel 2.6.31 and my hardware, i was wondering if there is a way to upgrade it to version 2.6.32... that i know i dont have any problems with it.The problems that i have is with my ath9x driver, iv'e experience it before with other distros and the same kernel (2.6.31)Another question i have is about VirtualBox, i use it to run windows, and i'm amazed of the lack of speed and performance i have in openSUSE, i dont know if it's because i'm doing something wrong, quite possible since i'm not familiar with the -suse way- of using linux... i read the wiki about virtualbox made all that it's said (used OSE and non-OSE) and nothing changed... it's unusable. i used to use it in other distros with no problems, but in suse i have alot of issues.
apart from all the issues i have concerning speed and performance in openSUSE it's worth of a try.hope that configuring it better will speed up and increase performance.btw, i have a amd athlon x2 2.1ghz, ati radeon hd3200 using fglrx module and 4gb of ram.

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: XP Install On VirtualBox From USB CD / DVD Drive
Mar 18, 2011I am trying to install Windows XP on VirtualBox, using an external USB CD/DVD drive. VirtualBox boots to the CD/DVD and goes through the first part of the installation flawlessly. After XP restarts from the HD, however, it can't complete the installation because it can't find the files at "D:I386asms". (In fact, it doesn't seem to be able to access the CD/DVD drive at all.) I'm just guessing, but could this be because of how VirtualBox handles USB drives and/or because (if I recall) XP lacks native support for USB?
Hardware and software specs:
--Lenovo ThinkPad X201
--Asus SDRW-08D1S-U external USB CD/DVD drive
--Ubuntu 10.04.1 64-bit (kernel 2.6.32-30)
--VirtualBox 4.0.4 (from [URL])
--WinXP SP2 32-bit (original, retail install disc)

Slackware :: Unable To Install The Virtualbox
Apr 16, 2010Just grabbed Slackware64-current and installed on my laptop. Also put Alien Bob's multilib on.need it for my Absoft fortran compiler.The problem I'm having is that VirtualBox-3.1.6 doesn't install. I've looked at other problems on the list related to this and I don't think that any of the ones that I've seen applies to my situation. My feeling is that there is an incompatibility problem with gcc. The stock kernel was compiled with gcc-4.4.3 which comes with Slackware64-current. However, Bob's multilib backdates this to gcc-4.3.3. So, when the Virtualbox installation procedure runs it sees a kernel compiled with a version of gcc that is different from the one that is currently installed and chokes. recompile the kernel with the current gcc. Haven't done a kernel compile in a long time though and I'd like to get it right. So, my question is "Is the stock .config file in the linux source folder the one used to configure the default kernel?". I like the stock kernel and would like to recompile with all the bells 'n whistles in the stock kernel.

Debian :: Install On VirtualBox Running On Mac Server
Jun 15, 2011I am running virtualbox on a Mac Mini Server. I would like to install Debian on it and give it an internal static IP address. E.g. 192.168.1.xxx
I am looking at all the downloads. The Mac Mini Server Snow Leopard has no CD/DVD but plenty of disk space.
It will be used as a LAMP webserver, Java, Ghostscript and pdftk but also install ISPConfig on it.
I was looking at this ISO: [URL] Is this ok?
The Mac is a 64 bit Intel based machine. If I wanted 64 bit on the VirtualBox, which 64 bit ISO should I get?
