Still getting error

Maybe the error is related to the !Italian! sources.list?

Take a close read of https://devuan.org/get-devuan, paragraph Package repositories and https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3276. Country codes are deprecated.

A simple deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-backports main (contrib non-free) should do the job.

Something is a bit strange about beowulf backports or maybe more like the package search? I looked on my fileserver running Beowulf for about a year now. beowulf-backports are present, apt lists packages like linux-image-5.4.

When I use the https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/d1pk … se=beowulf to search for linux-image-5* that are present in backports, I get:

26 results for "linux-image-5*" in beowulf (in 7.427974ms)

#1054 Re: Other Issues » LibreOffice 6.1.5 or 6.4.2 to ASCII from Beowulf or Ceres repos? » 2020-04-04 11:43:04

apt remove libreoffice_6.4 will do. The beauty of this approach is that dpkg is part of the Debian/Devuan package administration. The installation will be listed as local in the package database. You may use all tools/commands you usually use, like synaptic, apt/apt-get, ....

As root enter apt list libreoffice in a terminal and see what you get.

#1055 Re: Other Issues » LibreOffice 6.1.5 or 6.4.2 to ASCII from Beowulf or Ceres repos? » 2020-04-04 07:58:37

/tmp is cleaned out on every reboot, so if you have extracted the tarball to there as suggested, you don't need to worry about the debs.

Anyhow, when extracting a LO tarball, the files will always end up in a subdirectory with the version in the name (when you specify to create directories as int he comrpessed image).

#1056 Re: Other Issues » LibreOffice 6.1.5 or 6.4.2 to ASCII from Beowulf or Ceres repos? » 2020-04-03 08:28:28

You can use a tarball from the Libreoffice website to install. Make sure you have a deb and the right architecture. Optionally also load the offline help and the language pack. Then do:
- Extract the contents of the tarball(s) to /tmp. With Mate desktop I use Engrampa.
- As root go into /tmp, cd into LibreOffice_6.4.2_Linux_x86-64/DEBs.
- Install with dpkg -i *.deb
- Optionally repeat with offline help and the language pack.
- Reboot and use LO

Thought I'd seen a reply, must have been deleted.

Consider how to partition the SSD for your 3 distros. Less is more. And if you want to have control you may use the manual partitioning. But you need to know or learn what you are doing.

#1058 Re: Other Issues » LibreOffice 6.1.5 or 6.4.2 to ASCII from Beowulf or Ceres repos? » 2020-04-01 17:56:52

Sorry, you are running ASCII and want to install a big package from Beowulf backports, that is bound to cause trouble. Anyhow, in backports you won't find the libreoffice meta package.

Use https://pkginfo.devuan.org/ to search which package is where to find.

rolfie

PS: And it really looks like Beowulf-backports have vanished again. I have used it before, no more present.

There are several threads in this forum about encryption. And several approaches. Search and give it a read.

The 120G SSD isn't very big. We are talking about a non UEFI computer, don't we? Instead of MBR partitioning, read about GPT and the advantages. Maybe not required on that SSD, but I would call it an option, nowadays I prefer GPT whenever possible.

My approach for an encrypted setup: separate /boot unencrypted, separate /home drive encrypted, with the installer generate a volume for encryption, inside that a physical volume for LVM, split that into swap and root. Works great since I think Etch/Lenny, when I started to learn about Linux.

Depends on what you expect. My private little fileserver (samba and nfs) runs on Beowulf since last summer, can't complain, rockstable.

A new installation with network mirror works fine.

That means grub-efi-amd64 is missing on the DVD.

Installation into a Virtual Box VM with UEFI, encrypted with LVM, separate /boot-Partition. Expert install with openrc, let the installer partition the available space (32M). Goal was a minimal system with CLI for setting up my preffered desktop MATE without the garbage you get with the normal selection. 

Host is a ASCII installation with VBox 6.0.14 directly installed with dpkg -i. Its not the latest version but it works for me.

The installation ended with no error message on installing grub, but the VM did not boot. Same scenario as https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=2676. Used the DVD as rescue system and tried all options as posted in the mentioned thread. Finally suceeded with grub-install --bootloader-id=debian followed by an update-grub.

Found the log in /var/log/installer on the VM, here is the important part attached.

Scanning through there 2 topics struck my eyes:
1.) Mar 19 19:16:10 05efi: debug: /target/boot/efi does not have /EFI directory: exiting. I saw this when first running the rescue system, and fixed it manually. A normal grub-install did not help, still ended in the grub shell.
2.) Mar 19 19:15:29 in-target: Paket grub-efi-amd64 ist nicht verfügbar: the installer did not find grub-efi-amd64.

What went wrong there? My mistake or deficits in the installer?

Observation: the installer did not have a clear indication if started in EFI or MBR mode.

I am always willing to learn, you got a point there. update-alternatives allows to switch to the mate-terminal-wrapper, I will change my default mode to that proposal. This also fixes the problems with the text in the bash_history.

Thanks, rolfie

Putting it in ~/.bash_profile didn't work for me. I suppose I have to log out of my desktop session and restart it. Putting it in ~/.bashrc works every time I open a new terminal on the desktop. If I put it in /root/.bashrc, it works every time I do 'su' or 'su -' in a terminal.

Entering:

. ~/.profile
echo "##
##Session begin $(date)
##" >> ~/.bash_history

into /root/.bashrc causes a memory access error (Speicherzugriffsfehler in German), no matter if I use Mate with pkexec, su - or xterm. Whats wrong here? Guess I have to use the rescue mode again.

It does not matter if the separator is inserted every time I use the root terminal, I like the idea to have a better feeling for when I did something administering my installations.

BTW: the machine in question is Beowulf Beta from DVD in a VBox with UEFI encrypted with LVM. Rebooting the VM didn't make a difference.

rolfie

Edit: could fix it via opening the root folder under the Mate file manager with administrative privileges and using geany to remove the modifications from the .bashrc file.

Please can you explain why this is a silly idea?

And its not a MATE devs idea. I put something together about a year ago, related to dropping gksu: https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=2717

Use this to start a root terminal:

x-terminal-emulator -e su -

That line works fine as additional entry in the menu.

But: I don't like xterm. The font is ugly and much too small for my eyes, and the window is too small. Mate terminal gives me exactly what I want and need, and offers to increase the window to a width of 132 characters.

There should be a way to achieve this.

Tried that and created the .bash_profile in the /root folder of a Beowulf installation in a VM based on the Beta DVD, does not work. I use Mate, the root terminal is started by pkexec mate-terminal.

What can be wrong? Rights?

rolfie

PS: seems to work when I start the Mate terminal as user and switch to root with su -. How can I make this work via pkexec?

Have you got the intel-microcode installed? Take the one from backports, thats newer. If that does not help try kernel 4.19 from backports.

That is normal, that firmware is non-free.

I can't stay with ascii 'cause of my apu need the more recent possible software drivers, and beowulf works pretty nice except for this weird problem.

Please can you tell as a bit more about your boundary conditions like UEFI yes/no, mbr/gpt, DE etc. including the exact error message? Maybe you need some additional settings.... I myself got an ASCII running fine on a Ryzen 7 2700X, while my fileserver is on Beowulf already. Had no issue with elogind. Maybe its worth when you search the forum for threads about elogind, there is something available to read.

The list on Beowulf is similar with newer versions partially. All you need is alsa-utils, alsamixergui and apulse to make FF play sound with alsa.

Thanks for the confirmation concerning nano.

Just repeated the install into the same VM overwriting it. 
* Strange behaviour when using arrow keys to bring back previous commands: line not deleted, text is added on the end up to 80 characters? The last command is executed again.
* Looks like the hostname is not evaluated correctly. The login tells me Devuan GNU/Linux 3 (none), when I login the prompt is root@(none), cat hostname shows the intended name.

rolfie

PS: Using the desktop.iso seems to work fine. At first sight no issues like with the netinstall image.
Observation: no graphical installer present. Is that intended?

#1075 Re: News & Announcements » Beowulf Beta is here! » 2020-03-16 18:14:53

Great that it is finally there.

CLI mode expert install from netinstall image into a VM, no other specials:
* Is nano no more on board?
* Strange behaviour when using arrow keys to bring back previous commands: line not deleted, text is added on the end.

Somebody else with the same error?

PS: checksum checked, is ok.
