!firmware image
dpkg 2017-01-26 13:46:12
Unofficial images - containing non-free Debian packages - for installing Debian 8 "Jessie" are available from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/current/ . See also .
beboop 2017-01-26 13:47:39
I've been trying the non free firmware image as well
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 13:48:18
do you know which chipset you have?
e-vent 2017-01-26 13:48:30
Anyone know why when I am doing an upgrade from wheezy to jessie apt-get dist-upgrade is causing a read only file system
e-vent 2017-01-26 13:48:35
and a loss of all commands
beboop 2017-01-26 13:49:09
TomTomTo1 I forget. Let me check
beboop 2017-01-26 13:49:57
Intel 8260
beboop 2017-01-26 13:53:32
I have Fedora running on it right now and it's using the iwlwifi driver which I'm pretty sure is in the non-free firmware image
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 13:54:34
it is. but i think you need the one in jessie-backports.
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 13:55:34
can you connect using ethernet and load the backports kernel and iwlwifi after the installation?
beboop 2017-01-26 13:55:46
The laptop has no ethernet port :/
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 13:57:19
you can also download the packages from packages.debian.org and transfer them on removable media.
e-vent 2017-01-26 13:57:39
It's done it again
e-vent 2017-01-26 13:57:53
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/gzip_1.6-4_armhf.deb (--unpack):
e-vent 2017-01-26 13:57:53

e-vent: That isn't an error, post the whole output to a pastebin (/msg dpkg pastebin).

sneakernet
klys 2017-01-26 13:58:35
there should be an easier way of doing sneakernet downloads
klys 2017-01-26 13:59:10
I've had to do it how many times, and always I have to browse pdo or something to calculate the deps
bazhang 2017-01-26 13:59:15

toruvinn 2017-01-26 13:59:23
e-vent, are you sure it's dist-upgrade's fault, it wasn't a problem with your filesystem and you dont have errors=remount-ro set?
toruvinn 2017-01-26 13:59:59
e-vent, dmesg usually says something about that.
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:00:44
I'd have to check
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:01:12
cannot check dmesg as the command is no longer found
klys 2017-01-26 14:01:43
what I want is an apt-get command that works with an alternate root
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:01:45
Not sure why the raspian devs would make it read only on error
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 14:01:47
klys: you can use something like aptitude --download-only and then copy the packages from the apt cache, but you would need a second debian system for that.
beboop 2017-01-26 14:02:11
TomTomTo1 so do I just replace the iwlwifi from the extracted firmware.tar.gz?
klys 2017-01-26 14:02:30
tomtomto1, i mean something that would install the base system beginning with libc6 / glibc
klys 2017-01-26 14:02:47
into an empty directory
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 14:03:10
beboop: you finish the install, transfer the packages to your freshly installed system and install them.
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 14:03:38
beboop: you would need the kernel from jessie-backports, its dependencies and firmware-iwlwifi
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:03:38
fstab doesnt show it mounting as -ro
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 14:04:06
klys: debootstrap?
beboop 2017-01-26 14:04:56
TomTomTo1: Oh okay. I'll try that. Thank you very much
TomTomTo1 2017-01-26 14:05:05
good luck
klys 2017-01-26 14:06:10
tomtomto1, doesn't look like debootstrap has a --download-only equivalent.
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:06:33
fyi , it is doing it on normal apt-get upgrade
klys 2017-01-26 14:07:24
e-vent, check mtab instead
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:07:57
mtab?
klys 2017-01-26 14:08:12
it's usually a symlink to /proc/mounts iirc
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:08:12
Yup
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:08:18
it just instantly did the same thing again
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:08:24
installing gzip
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:08:31
read only file system
klys 2017-01-26 14:08:46
check dmesg for the remount message
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:08:48
dmesg = -bash: /bin/dmesg: No such file or directory
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:09:00
ls command not found
klys 2017-01-26 14:09:17
you need another partition then
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:09:40
cat not found
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:09:53
Why do I need another partition?
klys 2017-01-26 14:09:55
have you got a spare usb thing
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:09:57
Just for error messages?
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:10:27
Wouldn't a syslog pipe make more sense
klys 2017-01-26 14:10:48
looks like you have to install another system so you can fsck
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:11:23
Well that isn't happening on a raspberry pi
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:11:52
Not sure what the point of a file system check is
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:11:54
clearly
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:12:02
something updating is causing the issue
klys 2017-01-26 14:12:07
then pull and fsck on another linux system
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:12:17
Can't pull it
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:12:21
its in a junction box
klys 2017-01-26 14:12:26
o
klys 2017-01-26 14:12:52
you need a usb hub? iirc, r.ppi has two usb ports
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:13:08
It's in a mains connected junction box
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:13:11
If I can avoid it
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:13:16
I do not want to open it
klys 2017-01-26 14:14:26
i would anticipate operating read-only moving ahead
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:14:36
its not
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:14:39
every reboot it is fine
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:14:43
until I update
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:14:55
a few updates get past then it goes RO
klys 2017-01-26 14:15:21
you've got some kind of problem there either it isn't running fsck or the media has another problem
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:19:26
Think is might be related to slight overvolting
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:19:28
we shall see
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:19:36
I've had to adjust the power supply
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:22:52
Overvolting is the national bloody grids' fault
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:22:57
overdriving the local network
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:24:03
gzip has now installed
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:24:18
and it has now died on the next update
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:24:19
wtf
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:26:54
Anyway
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:26:59
even with a read only file system
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:27:03
why are all my commands broken?
klys 2017-01-26 14:27:34
because the libraries didn't unpack?
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:27:53
no no
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:27:55
all commands
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:28:03
ls cat reboot
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:28:05
everything
klys 2017-01-26 14:28:07
yeah, all commands need libraries
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:28:12
And?
klys 2017-01-26 14:28:22
and that would break them easily
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:28:23
Those libraries are not being updated
klys 2017-01-26 14:28:31
oh
ghormoon 2017-01-26 14:31:00
hi, do I need anything specific to make lacp interface with default gateway? if I restart netowrking, even if there is "gateway x.y.z.a" I don't get route throught it. config: http://pastebin.com/N2uZ6ufC
ghormoon 2017-01-26 14:38:59
another stange thin is that it has the /24 route, but I can't ssh to it until I add the default route
ghormoon 2017-01-26 14:39:31
nvm, just realized the laptop might be in different subnet now, my bad :)
ghormoon 2017-01-26 14:39:47
but still, why is the default route missing ... :(
id10t 2017-01-26 14:40:19
i'm playing with a DNS server for my LAN on Debian Jessie. the default bind9 config works as a caching server ... but there are no servers listed as forwarders in the named.conf.options file... what server(s) is my local instance going to then?
e-vent 2017-01-26 14:44:10
id10t, I assume your gateway's default DNS
toruvinn 2017-01-26 14:44:39
e-vent, again, updating it may cause some corrupted file/directory to be read and hence causes remount,ro.
