HD Install :: frugal_lite.sh



Help!

Am trying to do a network install of DSL to my hard drive as outlined in  http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/network-install.html

Machine is a Pentium II 400MHz with no cd-rom (bootable or otherwise) and a problem child usb bus that doesn't like installing from external sources.....

Have a PCMCIA network card with Realtek 8139 aboard. TOMSRTBT could not find the card.

Finally tried Blueflops - http://blueflops.sourceforge.net

Got connection to the net and as it does not have wget aboard used the integrated browser to download  

http://ibiblio.org/pub....lite.sh

No problem...created partitions - checked file permissions and ran...  ./frugal_lite.sh as instructed...

Then problems...

Asks for partition to install iso to

I enter hda2

error message appears....

./frugal_lite.sh: 25: Syntax error: ";" unexpected

As this is a well publicised script I cannot believe this is a programming error... had a look at line 25 in the script and cannot see anything wrong...

All ideas and suggestions appreciated

Many thanks

Chris
