Subject: [DNG] Devuan on Raspberry Pi
Hello,

has someone had success in installing Devuan on Raspberry Pi?

My first attempt was to upgrade from Raspbian Wheezy following this guide:

https://git.devuan.org/dev1fanboy/Upgrade-Install-Devuan/wikis/Upgrade-to-Devuan

Did not work, segmentation fault in some package installation script.

Next try: installed image from Devuan downloads to SD card. Did not
boot. :-(

Next try: installed Raspbian Jessie, than migrate to Devuan following
same guide. Again, segmenatation fault in some script.

Last try: installed Raspbian Jessie, then "apt-get dist-upgrade" to
latest Debian version, then migrate to Devuan using same guide again.
And again: segmenation fault.

Preconfiguring packages ...
(Reading database ... 31298 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack .../bash_4.3-11+deb8u1_armhf.deb ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/bash_4.3-11+deb8u1_armhf.deb (--unpack):
subprocess new pre-installation script was killed by signal (Segmentation fault)

Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Very frustrating. I give up. :-(
