I already executed that before running the script

This is the error that your install script creates:

Hi.

Try replacing the 'xx' with e.g. 'us'. I believe this is set in /etc/apt/sources.list. Don't have the script here right now, so can't double check, but it seems like a missing country code or something.

i got it to work. the us mirror was not working at all, so i used the hu mirror, and updated both the apt sources list and the mirror location in the script.

Enjoy and happy hacking!
Thank you sooooo much for this...I've been really struggling with getting a base install of Debian without Gnome, it was just a simple matter of it was above my skill level. By providing this, you've got me moving in the right direction! Thank you!

One thing that might be obvious to most but wasn't obvious to me is this: In addition to changing the country code in sources.lst, it must also be changed in the script. As I said I'm probably the only one that missed that, so I'm stating here clearly for other folks who are just as apt to miss things as I am. :)

Thank you again!

I have installed on my smartbook ssd this debian armhf , after that I rebooted and log as root user.
I have made adduser <my user name>, after that I have add <my user name> to group name:
Code:
audio,voice,video,users,netdev,plugdev
netdev is needed from wicd
audio is needed from gstreamer for audio
plugdev i believe that is needed for mount usb
in my case I have added <my user name> ad the end of the line ( file /etc/group) of the group name indicated.

for make thunar be able to mount the usb keys and sd is needed to do this steps:
In
Code:
/etc/pam.d/common-session
insert the line
Code:
session optional pam_loginuid.co
just before
Code:
session optional pam_ck_connector.so nox11
Create /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/consolekit.pkla with the
contents:
Code:
[restart]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.restart
ResultAny=yes

[stop]
Identity=unix-user:brian
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.stop
ResultAny=yes
In the same directory have udisks.pkla containing:
Code:
[udisks]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks*
ResultAny=yes

It's quite some time that I'm using the image, installed on ssd, and I'm happy with it.

Some random question/suggestion:
- Its possible to have the genesi logo at the begin of the boot like in the factory ubuntu image? It's quite annoying having 10 second of blank screen when I turn on the EfikaMX.
For the moment I added console=tty0 to boot.scr as kernel parameter. At least I know is doing something... :wink:

- in boot.scr, I see that root is mounted rw. It is not supposed to be ro, to let the boot scripts able to do a fsck?

- wicd disconnect the wired connection, even if I configured as static ip. Stopping wicd service stopped the problem.

- is there a way to select the screen resolution? It seems that kernel recognize all the screen resolution offered by the monitor, but for some reason stick with 1280x720.

What should I add to sources.list to access it?

BTW: this morning brought 150+ updates to my smartbook and it feels faster. For example the XFCE menu now appears immediately instead of a short dealy.
