#1 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] can´t install .deb file, system then asking for insertation of cd rom » 2023-12-26 21:00:40
Hello thanks to everybody, due to being a beginner in linux general, coming from lmde4 mint, meanwhile i reinstalled devuan as i thought that during the first installation those error messages during that installation where somehow related to not correctly make partitions, well that all lead me through a long learning process after i deleted all the partitions to give the devuan installation a clean bed including the efi partiition.
finally i managed to reinstall devuan after using the ubuntu install routine to fix my efi problem automatically.
now i managed to install already some programms like kiwix true crypt and finally after problems with a qt platform xnview, too. after installation of the official .deb file.
so i would say my problem is fixed even i don't know why this qt platform problem fixed itself, but i can mark it now solved.
thank you.
