No backup medium
Hi there
I've trawled the archives but found no luck. I'm on version 0.11.10-3 and want to upgrade so I can use the uPNP streaming with my Liteon dvd and netgear mp101.
I tried upgrading using the web interface but no luck, it tells me no upgrades found. I've checked my /etc/apt/sources.list and made sure the debian sources are commented out and the bubba source is available:
bubba:/etc/apt# cat sources.list
#deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/ sarge main
#deb http://security.debian.org/ sarge/updates main
#deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/ sarge non-free
deb http://update.excito.net/ bubba main
I tried dpkg --configure -a followed by an apt-get update and still I'm on 0.11.10-3.
I've downloaded the latest img file and popped it onto a usb stick formatted as FAT32 using winxp sp2, but my bubba won't recognise the memory stick, so I'm stuck
Any pointers gratefully accepted
Plinth

Thanks for the reply bjorn. I tried that:
no luck. I'm trying to concentrate on the usb issue now, as if I can get that to work I'm assuming booting with bubba.img on the usb key will upgrade it.
I've been tailing /var/log/messages while plugging and unplugging the key:
I think sda: unknown partition table and sd_mod: can't be loaded (for disk) might be important so I'm googling

Hi Plinth,
You should start by updating the packages list:
Then, if no error occurs, you could try:

I guess you have a "dependency conflict". That mean that you'll probably have to remove something to be able to update the bubba package.
You can have a good hint of what's the cause by typing:Look for 'broken dep' is the output.
When you have found the problem, you can get rid of it with:Then read carefully the warning before accepting.
Can you post the result of the first command here?

Thanks for your help bubbalibre.
Here's my output:
I've not tried apt-get -u install bubba yet. I seem to have a problem with mediatomb, which I tried to uninstall but I don't have it installed. Something tells me I'm not reading the error correctly. Perhaps my issue is with id3?
Should I go ahead with the apt-get -u install bubba without fixing the issue first?

The problem is that you have mediatomb installed. Since mediatomb is now part of the bubba package, but in another version, you have a dependency conflict.
You can try to remove mediatomb, knowing that it will be restore by bubba:

I tried apt-get remove mediatomb before removing libid3 but the response was mediatomb is not installed.
If I'm still having trouble I'll remove mediatomb and re update later on. Right now bubba is busy indexing my mp3 collection
Thanks again bubbalibre, your knowledge has been excellent and invaluable.

Also, regarding the USB stick issue, it would probably have worked if you had formatted your memory stick first (i.e. from windows, just right-click and choose format). Some USB sticks come with missing partition tables when you buy them, and Bubba doesn't handle that correctly.
Also note that using this approach would format the disk and re-install the system on Bubba, all your data would be lost.
