[MaMu]

Hi, i installed fog 1.2.0 on a raspian pi 3 with the stable 1.2.0 release.
Now i want upgrade the Version to the trunk Version but i got an error:

What’s the error in the error log? The folder for installer error logs is in bin/error_logs/fog_error_${versionInstalling}.log

@Mamu Well, the installer detects different distros (like debian, centos, arch linux) to be able to install the packages using the different package management tools on those systems. Seems like it does not properly detect debian on your raspbian system. DO you have the debian_version file? cat /etc/debian_version

[Wayne Workman]

@Sebastian-Roth Good thinking. If we can get the installer to recognize Rasbian as Debian, then the installer should just work.

I have a Pi2 running raspbx. This is what I get when I cat that file.

# cat debian_version
8.0

@MaMu I think it wouldn’t take much to make the installer run for raspbian as well. I tried to get raspbian up in a QEMU VM but it’s not easy and I wasn’t successful yet (starts booting but ends up with a kernel panic) as I don’t have enough time to get into the details any further. Please help us by providing the information (content of /etc/debian_version)!

PS: I just had the idea to simply loop mount the raspbian image instead of booting it and it actually has the file:

shell> kpartx -a -s -v 2016-03-18-raspbian-jessie-lite.img 
add map loop0p1 (254:0): 0 122880 linear /dev/loop0 8192
add map loop0p2 (254:1): 0 2527232 linear /dev/loop0 131072
shell> mkdir loop
shell> mount /dev/mapper/loop0p2 loop/
shell> cat loop/etc/debian_version
8.0
shell> umount loop
shell> kpartx -d 2016-03-18-raspbian-jessie-lite.img

So I am wondering if older versions did not have that file? Or if I am on the wrong track with what I thought is going wrong with our installer script(s).

[Wayne Workman]

In my opinion, we should only worry about the current version of Raspbian.
