during install, after you unpack the stagex tarball and chroot in, you cannot use df to check the free space of your partitions: df: cannot read table of mounted filesystems: No such file or directory it would be useful to check free space before continuing with the install.
did you mount /proc into the chroot destination?
This is (somewhat) fixed with live cd environment to do it properly is impossible though, as the chroot doesn't keep track of a preivous /etc/mtab (nor can it really)
yup, i did mount /proc. doesn't df get info from /proc/mounts ? looks identical to /etc/mtab to me... though neither of these contain free/used space information. where does df get that info from?
I'm no tsure to be honest where it gets it from, I'll have to investigate that further. This is 100% fixed with live CD environment though, I tested last night. I will close this once the live ISO is released.
The live ISO is now released and this works in that environment, so closing this one. Thanks Rajiv
