I am trying to install the command-line RAID management utility available at HighPoint-Tech's website: http://highpoint-tech.com/BIOS_Driver/page/rr622_U.htm
I have installed the hptsvr utility, and I am trying to install the hptraidconf utility, but when I execute "dpkg -i hptraidconf" I get the following error messages: Selecting previously deselected package hptraidconf. (Reading database ... 103059 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace hptraidconf 3.5 (using hptraidconf_3.5_amd64.deb) ... dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute old pre-removal script (/var/lib/dpkg/info/hptraidconf.prerm): No such file or directory dpkg: warning: subprocess old pre-removal script returned error exit status 2 dpkg - trying script from the new package instead ... dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute new pre-removal script (/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/prerm): No such file or directory dpkg: error processing hptraidconf_3.5_amd64.deb (--install): subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 2 dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed post-installation script (/var/lib/dpkg/info/hptraidconf.postinst): No such file or directory dpkg: error while cleaning up: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 Errors were encountered while processing: hptraidconf_3.5_amd64.deb I have followed the instructions here: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch02.en.html#_fixing_broken_package_script and modified hptraidconf.prem and hptraidconf.postinst to force an install so later I could uninstall this package. $ cat /var/lib/dpkg/info/hptraidconf.prerm #!/bin/sh #rm -f /usr/bin/hptraidconf #rm -f /usr/share/man/man1/hptraidconf.1 #rm -rf /usr/share/doc/hpt/hptraidconf-*/ true I am still getting the errors about the files not existing when trying to install.
