Wubi Move to Partition -- Ambiguous Error

[Racer Of All]

Hello!

I recently decided to get into the world of linux (still a beginner so bear with me, although I am willing to learn). I originally installed Ubuntu using Wubi but have decided to switch over to a more permanent installation (ew NTFS) anyway shrinking/formatting the partitions went great (done it before).

Now I am trying to follow the instructions found here on the Wiki but I encounter an error. Here is the terminal log:

sudo bash wubi-move-2.2.sh /dev/sda2
wubi-move-2.2.sh:  Validating migration source...
wubi-move-2.2.sh:  Source for migration validated successfully:

I tried Googling but the error seems too ambiguous to pull up anything helpful to my situation. Thanks in advance for any help!

It sounds like you have some broken dependencies (or some other packaging error). Please can you post the output of:

sudo apt-get install -f

FYI: (from man apt-get)

-f, --fix-broken
Fix; attempt to correct a system with broken dependencies in place.
This option, when used with install/remove, can omit any packages
to permit APT to deduce a likely solution. If packages are
specified, these have to completely correct the problem. The option
is sometimes necessary when running APT for the first time; APT
itself does not allow broken package dependencies to exist on a
system. It is possible that a system's dependency structure can be
so corrupt as to require manual intervention (which usually means
using dselect(1) or dpkg --remove to eliminate some of the
offending packages). Use of this option together with -m may
produce an error in some situations. Configuration Item:
APT::Get::Fix-Broken.

Thanks for the quick reply and sorry for what seems to be a newb question

Anyway here is the output of the command you suggested:

Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.

dpkg: error processing g15daemon (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 g15daemon
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

The G15daemon is what seems to be causing all the issues (it's a little program that gives some functionality to my Logitech G19) keyboard. I will try to uninstall it and try again see if it fixes the problem.

EDIT: That was the problem, thank you so much! Now to sort out the sound issues xD
Tried to change the tag on the title to [solved] but the forum doesn't let me.

Great! Glad you got it resolved. Not at all a newb issue (in my opinion).

PS I should have mentioned you can use the --resume option when running the migration so you don't have to copy all the files again. (Otherwise you have to empty the target partition completely). But it sounds like you might have already done that.
