Please reproduce your error on a second machine before posting, and check the error by running without saved changes or extra modules (See FAQ No. 13, "How to report a bug"). For unstable Porteus versions (alpha, beta, rc) please use the relevant thread in our "Development" section.

The update script is using the command ping and ip. Please run the following command from a root console (The little black TV thingy --> type: su --> type toor)

Code: Select all

ping -q -w 1 -c 1 `ip r | awk '/default/{print$3}'|head -n1`
If this fails you will need to open a file and comment out some code.

Added in 3 minutes 17 seconds:
The file is: /usr/share/porteus/porteus-functions
The line is: 178

Once you edit it. Copy it to the following location of your Poreus install like so:

Code: Select all

cp -a --parents /usr/share/porteus/porteus-functions /mnt/sdXY/porteus/rootcopy
where sdXY is the partition of your Porteus install. Hope that helped a little.

Wear your underpants on the outside and put on a cape.
