Hi Folks
I'm in process of installing ubuntu. Since I wanna learn a bit more about linux I do it the manual way. I got stuck and would appreciate some help.
What I did:
From Petitboot I made 2 partitions, mounted it and bootstraped ubuntu:
debootstrap --arch powerpc lucid /mnt/ubuntu http://ports.ubuntu.com
then I switched over, set fstab, network and language settings.
in /etc/apt/sources.list I set the following:
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-updates main restricted
deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-updates restricted
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid universe
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-updates universe
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid multiverse
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-updates multiverse
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-security main restricted
deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-security main restricted
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-security universe
deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-security universe
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-security multiverse
deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid-security multiverse
apt-get update runs fine without errors
I can get packages like nano, locales, console-data fine without a hitch
But when I want to compile a kernel, I get errors that the packages could not be found (diffrent from false spelled name)
command I use:
apt-get install build-essential ncurses-dev git-core gitosis
and since git does not install on the follow up command:
git clone --depth=1 git://git.gitbrew.org/ps3/ps3linux/linux-2.6.git
i get error: git unknown command
Are there additional /etc/apt/sources.list sources? I couldnt find more and the documentation I use (http://wiki.gitbrew.org/wikibrew/PS3:Linux#Ubuntu) just listed those. I done the whole process now twice with same result.
thanks in advance
