Installer Failing under Ver 4.0 B3

Post by fmh »

Hello,

I am currently trying to install GhostBSD 4.0 B3 under Virtual Box on a Windows7 64bit.
BSD 64Bit VM
1GB RAM
20GB HD
32MB VRAM

I am able to boot off the ISO just fine and get to the Desktop. I run the Installer and fill out my Country, Use the Enire HD with BSD Boot Loader, my User info, etc. When I “Forward” I just go back to the Desktop and the installation doesn't happen.

I have also had this issue under VMWare 3 and 5 on a Mac and VMWare 9 on Windows. No matter what Virtual Machine software I use I get the same results.

How would I do this? If I run GBI from the Mate Terminal I get "Permssion Denied'

Oops I saw that I need to enter "sudo gbi" from the Mate Terminal.

OK here's what I got.

Oh I forgot to mention that this screen shot was off a real computer this time and not a Virtual Box VM. I used the 32-bit i386 ISO burned to DVD. Do you need the computer hardware specs also?

Your hardware is fine, it is a software dependencies issue, I have not tested i386 installer before releasing i386. I have some problem here for i386 version it is weird that had not been reported sooner.

I got mine to install by opening a terminal (Applications->System Tools->MATE Terminal):

Code: Select all

  % su
  # mkdir lib
  # cd lib
  # ln -s /usr/local/lib/libsqlite3.so.0.8.6 libsqlite3.so.8
  # setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /home/ghostbsd/lib
  # gbi
then after rebooting to fix the installation:

Code: Select all

  # pkg install -Rf gnome-panel-2.32.1_6
and while we're at it fix another error I found with the Control Center and Power Manager:

Code: Select all

  # pkg install -Rf mate-power-manager-1.6.2
