Install problems on laptop
Posted: Tue Mar 17, 2009 6:13 am
I downloaded and install debian according to instructions. The only problem that I had was that I could not boot using a usb stick, so I burn the image to a cd. Everything has been installed now I'm trying to install the setup.tgz file that I download from meteohub download section. I'm currently log in and when I type mount /dev/sda /mnt - I get an error, I guess, stating that you must specify the filesystem type. I do not know anything about linux at all. So what does this mean?
When I plug my usb stick into the computer it has the setup.tgz on it here is what it stats.
[ 1310.561339] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [1310.576318] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through
I'm going to assume that since I copied the setup.tgz from my windows computer that this is going to be the problem.
Please help me with this. Thanks
