[coLinux-users] Installing via debian-40r1-i386-businesscard.iso breaks after popularity-contest config

[Oscar U. <osc...@pr...>]

Folks,

I am attempting to install 0.6.4-linux-2.6.11 with Debian Etch[*1] accordin=
g to the wiki instructions[*2] on WinXp Pro[*3]. I used fltk console invoke=
d from cmd.exe after starting the colinux service. I was able to get most o=
f the way with "Install the base system", then selected linux-image-2.6-686=
 at 79% complete. A little later I am prompted for "Configuring popularity-=
contest" install option which said, "The system may anonymously supply the =
distribution developers with statistics about the most used packages on thi=
s system...." I switched to virtual console 1, and issued the mknod command=
s to create /target/dev/cobd[0123] block device nodes, and modified /target=
/etc/fstab. In virtual screen 4, I observed the final lines as follows. The=
n responding either "Yes" or "No" results in the colinux-daemon crashing wi=
thout completing the base system install (additional backtrace included bel=
ow in dpkg.log), at this point the fltk windows console process would detac=
h.=20

I can boot via the image it does create, but the image represents an incomp=
lete install, e.g. some /etc/init.d/ scripts will not run (/etc/init.d/ssh =
start =3D> 'Warning: Fake start-stop-daemon called, doing nothing'), user a=
ccounts are not created (root password not set). The default.colinux.xml I =
used for the daemon is included below. I can ssh into the installed image. =
Any ideas how to correct or complete a good install?

Thanks,
OSC
