Ubuntu 7.04 assistance needed.

Trying to install true image server for linux version 3883 onto ubuntu 7.04.

OK. In previous versions of Ubuntu, all I needed to run was the following to make the Acronis installer happy:

Code:

sudo apt-get install rpm build-essential linux-source linux-headers-`uname -r`

The installer bombs on installing the kernel module. I think it's because the default install of Ubuntu 7.04 uses this kernel:

Code:

aaron@aaron-desktop:~/Desktop$ uname -r
2.6.20-15-generic

the -generic might be throwing things off. Installing "linux-source" just installs a package named "linux-source-2.6.20" so the installer probably can't find the proper source files.

I don't know. I've attached the appropriate log files.

Please advise.

 

Tried building and installing with dkms.

Code:

sudo dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.16 -k 2.6.20-15-generic --config /boot/config-2.6.20-15-generic --arch i686 --kernelsourcedir /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic/

Returns

Certainly this is enough info to get some help!

 

Bump for support. Installation works perfect with Debian 4.

 

I suggest you raise a support request.

F.

 

Official support requested. I'll keep this posted with the outcome.

 

Support said to do this:

Code:

sudo dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.16 -k 2.6.20-15-generic --config /boot/config-2.6.20-15-generic --arch i686 --kernelsourcedir /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic/

It resulted in this:

command output:
