Hello,
My email boils down to this question:
Why is the "pata_via" module excluded from the kernel of the Lenny installer?
(and how can I work around that)
The full story:
I tried to install Lenny (5.03) on a machine with an Asrock G965M-S motherboard:
http://www.asrock.com/MB/overview.asp?Mode
Hi, today, while I was trying to `aptitude upgrade`, I got this for
all upgrading packages:
tar: ./postrm: Cannot utime: Bad file descriptor
tar: ./postinst: Cannot utime: Bad file descriptor
tar: ./md5sums: Cannot utime: Bad file descriptor
tar: ./shlibs: Cannot utime: Bad file descriptor
tar: ./
What's the story on getting this thing working? I'm running Debian
Squeeze on an ASUS 1000HE. The device doesn't seem to be recognised as
anything it knows what to do about. It doesn't even seem to know it can
be a mouse.
