I have had a problem with my new Chembook 7400 laptop (which is actually an Asus Grandio F7400.) During an ftp install with redhat linux 5.2 I get three files that get the "execution of script failed". Dev, makedev and linuxconf rpms are the only ones that fail but they consistently do. Since the dev rpm deals with devices, it prevents me from doing a floppy install disk, as well as installing lilo so the whole installation stays stuck. Components of the 7400 can be found at http://www.chembook.chemusa.com/chembook/7400/7400comp.html further info about this laptop can be found at http://www.asus.com/Products/Specs/Notebook/f7400-Spec.asp I have also done a search of newsgroups and found a couple of other instances of this problem (although I don't know if the same files were the issue). Both machines were different than mine though.
First file to get the above error during installation. It is possible that the other two errors are in response to this one.
The dev rpm is the rpm that is the first to get the error message during the installation.
This is a duplicate of #189 (which was closed as "WORKSFORME" and should probably be reopened).
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 189 ***
Does this mean that this is considered resolved and closed? Or does this mean that all comments and work will be done on bug #189? If so, will I be receiving email updates on the status of this bug as I have been with bug #848?
Yes, all comments and work will be done on bug #189. As the system is setup now, you would not receive any e-mails when #189 would be updated, but you should have been added to its CC list. I added description of this problem to bug report #807
