I have to +say that I think my first guess was wrong; this is probably unrelated +to udisks (1) because with only udisks2 installed, the error message +can only have come from a udisks2-related script or binary. +Actual Problem 3: I do not know what tools are thought to be essential +for managing storage devices and I don't know why urpmi should be +trying to use one when all I am trying to do is get a mirror list from +t'internet. + +So I suppose the only point of similarity is that we both got the same +error message from two different setups. + +Richard + +On 25/02/2012, Juergen Harms <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">Juergen.Harms at unige.ch</A>> wrote: +><i> Re the udisk problem +</I>><i> +</I>><i> I see a little bit clearer: it looks as if udisk2 +</I>><i> +</I>><i> - does not work when I chroot (as it happens) from a Mageia 1 system +</I>><i> into cauldron (beta1) +</I>><i> +</I>><i> - does work flawlessly when I boot into the cauldron system; but this +</I>><i> cauldron system is really a minimum system, no desktop, no gtk (I want +</I>><i> to use it to clarify a BuildRequires problem): it only gives me a +</I>><i> command-line console, chroot would be much more comfortable (having +</I>><i> filesystems mounted on both systems and having all the comfort of guis +</I>><i> for editing and consulting documents on the base system). +</I>><i> +</I>><i> I guess (can somebody confirm, please), that it must be possible to do +</I>><i> unrestricted urpmi with chroot (both DVD and remote repositories) and +</I>><i> that this is probably a plain bug: udisk2 does not work with chroot.
