Just saw you were running dsl-n... I think there was some different setup with it - check the "old" dsl-n forums maybe.
Seems like the solution is to copy files from another linux distri (I have none): http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/dsl-n....=aptget I probably will have to install DSL now that I read this.
I thought the only difference between DSL and DSL-N is that the latter includes more programs and hence is bigger?
UPDATE: ?!$#! I tried to copy the files from the DSL cd, but couldn't get it mounted so I just installed DSL on my hdd, just to realize that it wouldn't recognize my usb keyboard. So back to installing dsl-n and trying to ftp the files over to the box.See http://damnsmalllinux.org/dsl-n/ for some main differences.I found the solution I followed these steps: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/dsl-n....=aptget (I booted a second machine on dsl and copied the files over except for /usr/sbin/dpkg-restore which doesn't exist. Instead I downloaded dsl-dpkg.dsl from here: http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub....m and installed it. I also skipped the step that says: do: dpkg-restore Other than that I followed it to the letter and this got apt-get working.
Now I am struggling with Apache2, sigh. I guess I will go and buy a book now
AndreThere's an apache2 package extension in mydsl that you could try... but keep in mind that it was made for dsl.
Mods: if it matters, i think this thread should be moved to the dsl-n section.
