Help W/ Debian Install (xqt Installed)

[lareya]

Okay,
 so I ventured out to Meanie's site, and decided to jump in the pool.  XQT was installed with the jumbo cram file.  Everything went well.  Now I am trying to get the Pocket workstation installed.
I type this:  ./xqt-debian-install.sh /hdd3/debroot

I get this info
creating swaffile /hdd3/swapfile
dd: /hdd3/swapfile: No such file or directory
mkswap: /hdd3/swapfile created
swapon: swapon: No such file or directory
instlaling PocketWorkstation to /hdd3/debroot

er: read-only file system
/hdd3/pocketworkstation crfeated.
rm : cannot remove '/hdd3debroot/fstest' : NO such file or directory
error: debian extract failed

Okay, so I figure someone will be able to understand all this and help me. Please be gentl - I am a newbie.  I
figure that I need to change something so it is not read only.  I used the cram files and the generic install.sh files.  I have 1gig SD card and a 4gig CF card.  latest Cacko 1.23  'Nastya' ; X/qt works, cuz I explored some of the new icons and they work i.e., ( gimp, Ethereal, Dia, FileManager etc).

Thanks for your help.  I would like the debian, cuz I would like to install some really nice bible study proggies and get ruby going!

try sudo ./xqt-debian-install.sh /hdd3/debroot or run it as root - maybe that will help....

hdd3 is the hard disk of a C3*00. I don't think this script is meant for the C860, which I guess from your sig is what you have. You might need to edit the script to point to the mount point of your SD card (or CF).

just type ./xqt-debian-install.sh /mnt/cf/debroot or ./xqt-debian-install.sh /mnt/card/debroot
