Hello Suse people,
A new one on me. Been using apt for several years. Downloaded an "upgrade" . Got the following message when the upgrade was to install.
Committing changes... Preparing... ########################################### [100%] installing package kernel-source-2.6.8-24.10 needs 29MB on the /usr filesystem E: Error while running transaction EasyStreet:/ #
More info on the original thread. I know there is enough space on /usr (which really shouldn't have anything to do with the upgrade - I think) so I went directly to the /apt/archives and tried to install with Yast. Yast asked me to insert Disk 1 and then couldn't find it. Gave up on that. Then tried with Kpackage by right-clicking directly on the file and choosing "open with Kpackage". Kpackage starts and opens, shows the file, tries to install it, and then told me the file didn't exist ! That is strange ! Must the kernel-default be installed before the kernel-source ? Just making wild guesses here. I would guess not. Besides when apt installs it installs as a group and all of the files are there. Maybe I should jut try a YOU update or download the files directly from SuSE, but they are huge files. Anybody have any idea what could be going on here ?? Bob S.
