Installer crashes after Configuration (Installer V1.0, PlaneShift_CBV0.3.015b)

[stevit]

Hi,

Im running Gentoo Linux with an 2.6.16 suspend2 Kernel, using Gnome 2.14 as window manager.
After configuration the Installer trys "Preparing to Install" and stops with an error at 0%.

I  can't get my hands on anything that would be usful for solving that problem, so I hope someone can help me out.

When there is no help on this problem is availaible:
Is there a way to install without the binaries?
Sources, e.g. from cvs? A good HowTo at hand?


Thanks so far,
Stevit

Building PS yourself is always an option. You can find instructions here.

I too Ber decided to take your advice after a SuSE 10.1 x-org update crashed my PS.  I now know why I never attempted to build this thing before.  it takes forEVER!

I wanted to add that the zlib headers files need to be installed too.  That seems to be missing from the guide.

Can you try installing using the '--mode xwindow' command line option please?

[stevit]

if that "--mode xwindow" was for me:

Code: [Select]

./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.015b.bin --mode xwindowdoes exactly what the try without that option does.
Crashes after configuration before beginning to install.

Code: [Select]

$ cat /tmp/bitrock_debug_8425.xml
