Im on Ubuntu 10.10 and just went through a bunch of crap to get vid card working and when it works and I reboot and try to run apt-get in terminal I got the bus error on Reading Packages List. rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin fixed that problem right away.Andrewnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285826952643196670.post-53620211245645894412009-06-24T09:57:11.079-04:002009-06-24T09:57:11.079-04:00One way or another, you need to repair your apt database. One way is to install OpenSSH and type some apt-get commands on your iPhone&#39;s command line. Another way might be to restore an old firmware and re-jailbreak your phone.Richardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13955040745900922376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285826952643196670.post-82223729557030436882009-06-23T19:29:22.666-04:002009-06-23T19:29:22.666-04:00Hi, <br /><br />I have the same problem but I did not install OpenSSH so I don&#39;t know how I can run these commands.<br /><br />Can you help me please?<br /><br />Thx.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285826952643196670.post-54432155301316642212009-06-22T19:20:00.233-04:002009-06-22T19:20:00.233-04:00i got an error &quot;FATAL -&gt; Failed to fork<br /><br /><br />any ideas?? thanks!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285826952643196670.post-77714059196108140592008-10-15T13:48:00.000-04:002008-10-15T13:48:00.000-04:00Thanks Richard for the quick reply. <BR/><BR/>WHen I try "apt-get remove chromium", I also get that message:<BR/><BR/>E: The package com.custom.chromium-systemtheme needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.<BR/><BR/>Same thing with "apt-get remove com.custom.chromium-systemtheme" or even with "apt-get install cydia"<BR/><BR/>Seems like I'm stuck with a crashing Cydia... I'm sure there's a way to fix it, but I can't find it. I'd like to avoid re-jailbreaking my iPhone and install everything once again :)<BR/><BR/>Regards<BR/><BR/>Greg from ParisGregutinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285826952643196670.post-50386794884946300812008-10-15T13:02:00.000-04:002008-10-15T13:02:00.000-04:00Hmmm, how about:<BR/><BR/>apt-get remove chromium<BR/><BR/>?Richardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13955040745900922376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285826952643196670.post-71589394521835416292008-10-15T12:57:00.000-04:002008-10-15T12:57:00.000-04:00Doesn't work for me. "apt-get install cydia" says there's some package missing that needs to be re-installed (a "chromium" pack for Winterboard). <BR/><BR/>Whatever I try to do with the terminall, I always end with this boring message about an archive missing. <BR/><BR/>I can run "apt-get update", it works well, but then, Cydia still crashes again. <BR/><BR/>Is there any way to tell apt-get (or Cydia) to forget about the "chromium" package?Gregutinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285826952643196670.post-47963932684781767432008-08-21T21:02:00.000-04:002008-08-21T21:02:00.000-04:00Cheers for the helpful post Richard. It also helped me fix a broken Cydia installation. Cydia was just crashing when it started up. Opening the Terminal app, su to root, then executing apt-get update did some jiggy stuff. I got some complaint about something related to Cydia, but even so when I tried starting up Cydia again up it came, right as rain :)) That's me happy.<BR/><BR/>Cheerio, JoshJoshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09098461771622863529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7285826952643196670.post-23905473495385733952008-07-11T01:21:00.000-04:002008-07-11T01:21:00.000-04:00Thanks from Italy, too!<BR/>I've tried to uninstall the iFon client from my iPhone with Cydia, but phone freezes... hard reboot and get your messages via shell/console/ssh or cydia crashes.<BR/><BR/>This morning, a simple:<BR/>$ ssh -l root@iPhone<BR/># rm /var/cache/apt/*bin<BR/># apt-get update<BR/><BR/>then launch cydia with my middle finger !<BR/><BR/>:^)<BR/><BR/>works great!!!<BR/><BR/>bye.<BR/><BR/>--<BR/>cacao74<BR/>Slack?
