Partition table entries are not in disk order

Could this be your issue? What about the other puters with similar issue do they have this same condition?

I think that just referred to hda3 being out of numerical order.

Other computer:

Disk /dev/hda1 doesn't contain a valid partition table

I created the package in root, both directly from the /opt directory and also from $HOME/work/opt. I set the /opt dir permissions to 'drwxrwxr-r' before creating the image, but it changes when loading from hda3.

aren't uci's supposed to be read-only ?

(just my 2 cents)
