thanks pgas - that was it.

i thought my card was ok since i had already installed iptables on it, and it was working.

i reformatted to ext2, and all is well.

thanks again.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Cannot Create Symlink

« on: February 03, 2006, 04:05:32 am »

Greetings!

On a 5500 running OZ 3.5.3, I am trying to install ncurses, ncurses-terminfo, and kismet to the sd card.

I get the following errors:

root@collie: ipkg -d sd install ncurses_5.4-r7_arm.ipk
Installing ncurses (5.4-r7) to sd...
package ncurses suggests installing ncurses-terminfo
Installing ncurses (5.4-r7) to sd...

ipkg: Cannot create symlink from ./usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 to 'libncurses.so.5.4': Operation not permitted

ipkg: Cannot create symlink from ./usr/lib/libform.so.5 to 'libform.so.5.4': Operation not permitted

When I try to install ncurses-terminfo and kismet (even nano!) i get similar errors.

I can't figure this out, as I have already installed other packages such as nmap, konqueror-embedded, and iptables.

Your help would be appreciated.
