Dear Sir,

Good day.

This is Suresh from India. First I thank you verymuch for your wonderful project :good: and I use now. Anyway I thanked you 6 times :) for this thread, which may make you happy.

I have tested 3 linux images through 'complete linux installer' project and 2 linux images through your 'Debian Kit' project.

I couldn't get root access and access to SD card content through 'Complete linux installer' project, but other things are good.

But in your 'Debian kit' project only, I got root access to linux system and got SD card content access.:good: Thank you.

Actually I installed the Linux images through the guide from this link - http://sven-ola.dyndns.org/repo/debian-kit-en.html.

Is this your's link ? Because,name is different, 'Sven-Ola', thatswhy, I asked.:cool:

Ok. first I tried 1GB disk image with Debian Stable version in my SD card. It was good until installing some programs through 'apt-get' command, then I got issue,the connectbot didn't start RDP (through 'deb x' command) and gave 'out of space' error in /var folder, actually I forgot that exact error. Sorry.

Then I installed 2 GB disk image with Ubuntu Lucid version in SD card (fat32 file system,8 GB). It was also well upto installing 2 programs,(Open office and Epiphany browser), because, there is no 'office' preinstalled in package. But , Yesterday, I tried 'docky' (like as Cairo dock) package through Synaptic. It downloaded, but during installing, it hanged at some point. I have attached the screenshots herewith. It hangs for ever. So, I typed exit. After that I tried some commands as 'apt-get autoremove', 'apt-get upgrade' and some commands. But, It give the same error - 'dpkg was interrupted, so you have to reconfigure through 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' for correction. But, after typing that command, again it hangs at some point. After that I couldn't remove the 'docky' package and also I couldn't use synaptic. the synaptic couldn't start through terminal. It gives the same error and hangs.

So, please help.

Issues for me in 2GB, Ubuntu lucid version.

1. There is no Office installed in package. So, I manually installed openoffice through 'apt-get' command (but, it is not a big deal)

2. Firefox crashes at starting, even at single time, it didn't open. (it is not only in 'Debian Kit', also in 'Complete linux installer' for in my Dapeng A9230+, 5 inch mobile, MTK6575, ARM V7 Cpu, 1 Ghz using Custom ICS 4.0.6). So, I removed firefox. Installed chromium-browser, but, chromium also didn't open. Finally installed 'epiphany browser' through 'apt-get' and it works good. (It is also not a big deal for me )

3. Synaptic package manager and Software sources, both didn't open. I have to open through 'Terminal' as 'Sudo synaptic' and for 'software sources' - another command... I forgot that. But, 'sudo synaptic' also gives some error, please see screenshot, But it opens synaptic.

Last Question - For safety, I have copied the downloaded 'Debian.img' from SD card to my PC. If suppose, I want to reinstall in another ROM,, what exactly I have to do ? ..... Yes, you have already mentioned.......

The following is Ok ? from this page - http://sven-ola.dyndns.org/repo/debian-kit-en.html

"To remove the kit from your Android device later on, start a root shell and enter /data/local/deb/uninstall. After this, do not forget to remove the debian.img file from your SD-Card, e.g. by using a file manager app."

Then , this

"If you upgrade/change your Android ROM, typically the debian.img file on the SD card isn't lost. However, you may miss the deb link and also, there may be stray symlinks in your Debian file system pointing back to now non-existing files. Download and unpack the debian-kit*.shar file, run /data/local/deb/mk-debian -u to re-create the deb link and deb c to remove all backpointing symlinks (they will be re-created on the next turn)."

After this, Will it again start to download some packages in New ROM ?

Ok. Again thanks for your hardwork.:good:
