Re: [webmin-l] debian unstable install

Hi Rodney,
This can happen is the /etc/issue file on your system doesn't contain a version number. The work-around is to edit /etc/issue and change the testing/unstable text to 3.1 , and then re-install Webmin.

When I try to install webmin, it seems to get picked up as a "generic 
install". So when I'm done, all the module paths are wrong. Can I 
somehow  specify a debian installation during setup?

Hey Jamie!  Ha, now I have Xandros  :)  Modules seem to have the right 
path though.  Below I pasted the lines from /etc/issue
Thank again Jamie.  On a side note, it's rare that I install webmin on 
unstable. But this is my personal desktop machine. Also, webmin is 
usually the FIRST thing I install before I upgrade to unstable. I was 
just in a big hurry this time and waited till now to do webmin.


Pasted from a sarge box /etc/issue

Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 \n \l

Pasted from this unstable box. /etc/issue

Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 \n \l
