Hallo

I have tried a usb stick, and a dvd burned with 'burniso' from the same iso with a correct md5sum .

The chromium web browser is working fine in live mode.

When I try to start the sidu-installer,on both methods, I get the same web page details showing :

I have tried using the desktop icon and from the applications menu with the same result.

Is it possible to progress with this error showing ?

devil:
Does cli-installer work?
I never saw this output before, will send the traceback to the guy who last worked on the installer.

melmarker:
try in the terminal

--- Code: ---sidu-installer-control start

--- End code ---

pjnsmb:
sorry for the delay guys

just been installing using the cli-installer method which has worked ok..............

never stop learning , it's the first time I have used this way :)

thanks

vilde:
Just confirming that I get the same error. Installing xfce to an old T60, the graphical installer makes the same fault as below, doesn't matter how you start it. cli-installer works as su.
