Ubuntu :: No Installable Kernel Was Found In The Defined APT Source?
Aug 11, 2010
I am trying to install ubuntu on an old machine and no matter what version I try to install I get this same error.
"No installable Kernel was found in the defined APT sources"
The versions I have tried are (9.04server. 9.10desktop, 10.04 server).
I have swapped both the CD drive and HDD drive becuase, well i don't know why, but I have. This didn't work.
I have read [URL] and have tried changing my BIOS settings so that i have my config is:
IDE Primary Master : Maxtor 6Y080L0 (HDD)
IDE Primary Slave : HL-dt-st-sl8480b (CD-DRIVE)
This didn't work.
I have also tried doing the instructions posted by migraineman on the second page of the thread mentioned above but this also didn't work.
My specs are:
Cyrix 6x86 Processor
80Gb Maxtor HDD
LG-GCE CD-ROM Drive
319Mb RAM - 8Mb Shared

I am currently trying to install Debian 8 "Jessie" AMD64 on a Dell Latitude E7240. I have two 256 GB SSD disks, on the first one I have installed Xubuntu 14.04 successfully. I want to install Debian 8 (XFCE) on the other one.I have tried using Debian-8.0.0-Live-amd64-xfce, Debian-8.0.0-amd64-DVD and Debian-8.0.0-amd64-netinst, all from a USB key (prepared with Unetbootin), but after successfully partitionning SSD disk, the installer raises the following issue:"no install-able kernel was found in the defined apt sources".

I installed the latest kernel liquorix (2.6.35) but when i want to install the Nvidia driver downloaded on the Nvidia website (256.53), i have an error message because Nvidia doesn't found the kernel source tree.
I install linux-image-2.6.35-6.dmz.2-liquorix-686_2.6.35-16_i386.deb, linux-headers-2.6.35-6.dmz.2-liquorix-686_2.6.35-16_i386.deb and build-essential. I don't understand why the installation doesn't works.

I have made a full install of Slack 13.37.0. When I try to run the installer of the NVIDIA GF 8400GS card (NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.29-pkg1.run) downloaded from [URL], I receive an error message. It says that the kernel source cannot be indetified/found. /lib/modules/2.6.37.6-smp/source and .../build links to /usr/src/linux-2.6.37.6-smp, which contains the full kernel source (can be compiled), including the header .h files in include/linux. The same NVIDIA installer can be run successfully on my previous Slack 11.

I want to load the package madwifi under opensuse from Index of /suse/11.1, but RealPlayer did not function correctly. The reason why I want to use madwifi is that I cannot start my internet with opensuse 11.1 using motherboard from asus with the ethernet adapter from Atheros AR 8121/AR8113 PCI-E Version 1.0.0.5. When I compile the delivered Linux drivers I got the failure message "Makefile:61: Linux kernel source not found". So I decided to take rpm from opensuse within madwifi. How/Where can I get the corrosponding madwifi elsewhere?

Defining tcsh aliases through a .aliases file has worked perfectly for me for years and years using cygwin and older versions of mandriva. I am encountering very annoying and mysterious problems when attempting to do the same thing with a .aliases file in a fedora 64-bit VM. Strangely, if I define aliases in the file, they won't work, but if I do so on the command line, then they will.
Here's a simple example: Suppose I define an alias for "ls" in the file:
alias ls '/bin/ls'
Then source the file. This happens:
me: ls : Command not found.
me: alias ls
/bin/ls
me: /bin/ls
file1 file2 file3 etc.
me: unalias ls
me: ls
file1 file2 file3 etc.
me: alias ls '/bin/ls'
me: ls
file1 file2 file3 etc.
A second example: if I place either of these lines in my .aliases file:
alias d '/bin/ls -alF !:1'
alias d '/bin/ls -alF !*'and source the alias file, this happens:/ me: d
Bad ! arg selector. However, if I define the alias on the command line:
/ me: alias d '/bin/ls -alF !*'then the alias behaves correctly:/ me: dtotal 376

I am dealing with some Linux kernel code, which define most its functions with Macros.The trouble I am having is to use those code in user space in Windows.
For example, I have a function defined like this:
#define list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, n, head, member)
for (pos = list_entry((head)->next, typeid(*pos), member),
n = list_entry(pos->member.next, typeid(*pos), member);
&pos->member != (head);
pos = n, n = list_entry(n->member.next, typeid(*n), member))
And in user space code, I call it in this way:
list_for_each_entry_safe( pcre_item, tmp,
&(((pcre_list_head_t *)(hr.value))->head), list)
{
// My code to handle each element in the list
}
This is working like a charm in Linux, but I got errors in Windows:
It reminds me missing ';' after 'list_for_each_entry_safe( pcre_item, tmp,
&(((pcre_list_head_t *)(hr.value))->head), list)'.
Does this kind of linux code not working in Windows at all? (Linux is in GCC C stand and VC is ANSI C) I prefer not to convert them to normal functions but keep it the way if it could be working under windows by some tricks.

It sounds like he's making a difference between the kernel "source code" and the kernel itself(as in the downloaded file/ files) but the way he talks about both is the same.So then, if one had already "installed" the "kernel sources code," why would he need the "tarball with the newest Linux kernel?" He's already "installed" a kernel, right?

I am running an Hp Pavillion dv6000 with the Broadcom card that never seems to work for Linux. I recently talked with my friend who said he found a way to get it work.following his instructions I opened Synaptic and checked the package bmcwl-kernel-source to be installed.I went through the process of it all and it said it had install successfully. I restarted the computer and when I tried to enter my operating system I got this error "Kernel panic - not syncing : VFS : Unable to mount root fs on unknown - block(8,1)"
I have previous versions of Linux on my computer so I can still get in to those if need be but I don't know how to undo what I did or why it isn't working for that matter. Does anyone have any ideas as to why I am getting this error and how I can fix it?

So I go yum install kernel-devel, it does, but it doesnt find anything like kernel-source.
How do I fix this issue? I have Fedora 12, and I ran drivers from:[URL]..

I'm running CentOS 5.3 and would like to know what the "best" or "proper" method is to build a custom kernel using the generic kernel sources from kernel.org. Most of the references I've found talk about modifying the current CentOS kernel using the RPM way. I really want to have the latest kernel due to some important security issues that haven't been addressed in the current CentOS 5.3 kernel.

I want to edit the environment with a bash script, a part of my script is showed in the post. Its not everything, but the rest is working fine. At the begin of my script I've the follow line Code: #!/bin/bash
set -e First I tried with this solution. Code: sudo chmod 777 /etc
sudo rm /etc/environment
echo 'PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/ruby/bin"' > */etc/environment
sudo chmod 755 /etc
source /etc/environment Error, source not found
The second solution was this:
Code: sudo chmod 777 /etc
sudo rm /etc/environment
echo 'PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/ruby/bin"' > */etc/environment
sudo chmod 755 /etc
. /etc/environment
This one didn't give an error, but if I try this:
Code: ruby -v got an error
so the environment didn't worked.
If I use both commands
Code: source /etc/environment
Code: . /etc/environment
In the terminal, without a bash script, it works, so if I do
Code: ruby -v
It works and showed the right version.

I am Vamsi from Alcatel-Lucent. We have a software to configure the wireless broadband devices to the Linux machine. Till now, it was running on FC-5. When we need to add any new device, we used to add it in airprime.c, sw.h and usb-serial.c under /usr/src/linux/drivers/usb/serial directoy.
Now we are trying to upgrade the system to FC-12. But I am not able to find any kernal files under /usr/src/kernels/2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.PAE/drivers/usb/serial directory. I saw in some websites that the kernal files can be found at: /root/rpmbuild/SOURCES/linux-2.6.31/drivers/usb/serial. But in my system, there is no rpmbuild directory.

I am trying to install the Nvidia Quadro NVS 110 169.04 drivers but am having issues during install. Prior to attempting my install I did install the kernel-devel rpm so it can compile. after running the RPM I get. Quote: No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you like the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel from the NVIDIA ftp site [URL]?
which of course does not work. next it says Quote: "No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; this means that the installer will need to compile a new kernel interface.. i hit okay and move on to. Quote: Error: Unable to find the kernel sources tree for the currently running kernel. Please make sure you have installed the kernel source files for your kernel and that they are properly configured; on Red Hat linux systems, for example be sure you have the 'kernel-source' or 'kernel-devel' RPM installed. if you know the correct kernel source files are installed, you may specify the kernel source path with the "--kernel-source-path' command line option

Im am building a Linux distro. It will be very tiny and fast.
I only have a minimal linuxkernel (bzImage) who is 1,2 mb big. And then I have Busybox who is 174,6 kb big.
The commands in busybox is: cd, ls, mkdir, rmdir, wget, httpd, clear, rm, poweroff, halt, reboot, fdisk, mount, umount, free, and cp.
When I compiled the kernel i use initramfs/initrd function and point it to a folder where initrd/initramfs source is.
The kernel works OK with others initramfs/initrd files. But not with my own.
Quote:
Here is how the end of the kernelcomplie look like.
Quote:
Here is my init file who is the initrd/initramfs source.
Quote:
The initramfs folder contains "bin" (folder) and "init" a file. No more.
The problem is that the kernel cannot find/read init file.

I was attempting to install the package 'gnustep-devel', but the package 'gorm.app' which gnustep-devel depends on is not available. I've checked in Synaptic's Settings->Repositories and I have all repositories enabled, and the package is available via a Debian repository... I'm pretty sure that there's a better place to report it than here, but I don't know where that is.
