Re: Linux won't install on Digital Venturis - more info




	I am also seeing the message:


	/usr/lib/setup/cpkgtool: can not create
/mnt/var/adm/packages/aaa_base: directory nonexistent

near the beginning of the installation

and

segmentation fault

after the start of the devs package installation.



H E L P !
