Failing to install

pebcak · June 28, 2022, 3:01pm

Hi,

I just tried to install EnOS ARM to an external SSD from my ruuning Arch system following the installation instruction but I am failing in doing so. Not sure what might be wrong as I have done it this way a couple of times before. The only difference was that I did it from a tmp directory under ~/Downloads but I ran the installer with sudo (sudo ./image-install-calamares.sh).

Here is the relevant part of the output I think:

Untarring the image...takes 4 to 5 minutes.
./image-install-calamares.sh: line 124: pv: command not found
zstd: /*stdin*\: unexpected end of file 


syncing files...takes 4 to 5 minutes.

End of script!

Press any key to continue

I’ll try again following the instructions by the letter this time and see if it will succeed.

you have to install pv I guess. It says pv command not found

pebcak · June 28, 2022, 3:13pm

Alright, thanks!
I’ll install pv and try again.

pebcak · June 28, 2022, 3:34pm

Thanks @sradjoker for pointing out the missing package!

The image installed without a hitch. I am not at home now to go through the second stage of the install but when I am done I let you know.

ricklinux · June 28, 2022, 5:21pm

What is pv?

sradjoker · June 28, 2022, 5:24pm

Some users wanted a progress bar for the untarring process. So I piped bsdtar to pv and finally to zstd.

Edit:
Sorry I got the order reversed:

 pv "enosLinuxARM-odroid-n2-latest.tar.zst" | zstd -T0 -cd -  | bsdtar -xf -  -C MP2

Edit 2:
Fun fact:
I had to experiment for about half a day on this trying to get the order of the command options right to get it to work. It was/is very confusing.

sradjoker · June 28, 2022, 5:35pm

Problem fixed in the install script

pebcak · June 28, 2022, 5:40pm

Great!

That was my thinking also when I saw that missing pv command line before.
I thought that perhaps it was something missing from the installer.
It didn’t occur to me though that I should be installing it on my running system
