I used this write-quirky-to-partition.sh that I downloaded a fewtronkel wrote:Hi Barry,
Still no joy with the amended script. I've tried both Puppy Precise 5.6 as well as Debian Wheezy. Both of these have Busybox installed. The target partition is ext4.
The error output is the same as before and the amended script issues no warnings while using Puppy as the install distro.
There is a warning when using Debian Wheezy as the install distro. Even although the image file and the install script exist in the same folder, the install script nevertheless can't see the image file.
The script does manage to copy over the boot folder containing the vimlinuz file - but nothing else. The rest of the files do not get copied. So, the script is failing just at that point. Can't see where the error is.
minutes ago (dec 18th) from ibiblio.
I commented out this section of the script and the script ran without
error then:
#TESTDIR="`pwd`/write-quirky-to-partition"
# if [ ! -f "$TESTDIR" ];then
# echo
# echo "ERROR!"
# echo "You should have downloaded the Quirky6 compressed image, named
# something like 'quirky6*-img.xz' and it must be in the same folder
# as the script you are now executing. You must have opened a terminal
# in that folder and then executed this script.
# So, the current directory:"
# pwd
# echo "...is wrong. Aborting."
# exit
# fi
The screenshot shows the result, still getting the Seamonkey popup though until Barry's fix is applied.
