On mint7, it checked the environment, repo, script - gave the 'nag" screen & then then bombed out...
this is the same as V 1.8.06, whereas V1.8.04 worked on Mint6 okay.
On Debian, it would only run under root.
- it checked the environment, repo, script - & didn't get to the 'nag" screen...
== which brings up a Question of whether it will run under Ubuntu, or not?.
if so, ( since I can't test this @ the moment) - can it be used to "upgrade" Ubuntu into Ultimate.
open a terminal and type ultamatix --debug and please post the results. The screencast I droped of Ultamatix started as a fresh install of Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope I installed ultamatix and you can see the
end results that is the un-install tab I show.
I almost know what the issue is do a lsb_release -a
Ultamatix as the webpage says supports the following O/S's: Gutsy, Hardy, Intrepid, Jaunty, Karmic & debian sid
Debian 5.0 = Lenny not sid
Linux mint is not currently supported. I could tell you exactly how to make it work if you know your way around bash if you would like to test it in mint, and report results.
Let me expain the way ultamatix now works it makes a call to lsb_release -a detects the os running and executes appropriate scripts as per each distro example my output:
- Code: Select all
theemahn@SledgeHammer:/media/NewDrive/Custom Debs$ ultamatix --debug
Welcome to Ultamatix

Ultamatix is running in debug mode all errors no matter how small will be displayed.
Ultamatix: 1.8.0-7

I bet when it starts up and says detecting O/S... O/S detected: None, where it gets it list of software availability is similar /usr/share/ultamatix/script_data/$DISTRO DETECTED/$Distoname.xml
Tell you what drop the output of those 2 commands & I will build you one just for mint and lenny... I will not release it to the public, I want you to fully test it & report perhaps we can have a -8 release with support for lenny & mint, however you will enjoy it ahead of that
If you do well with this, I will upgrade you to mod status. This means install all applications / games from a fresh install of mint, not just the ones that you want, both x86 & x64 (if you have a 64 bit cpu). Same with Lenny. What benefit is it to be a mod around here?
Private acct on a server cutting edge beta software & sometimes alpha, let me drop you an example:
- Hot off the press, damn Ultimate Edition 2.3 has not been released yet ;)
That is based on Karmic, you will also gain access to admin / mod section of this board, Ultamatix as it is being made. Your name will also be added to the credits list in Ultamatix About page. I honestly do not have the time to fully test every debian based distro out there.
