Thanks for the response.  I followed the instructions, and installed OP25 with "./pybombs install gr-op25" command.  It just ran for a while, and then I just decided it was late, and went to bed.  When I awoke, the computer had frozen/crashed.  Tried several things, but nothing worked.   There was no error message.  I just rebooted.

Thanks, Michael

Hi Michael,

You didn't really give much info to go on here. Did the crash happen while installing pybombs, or was it during the OP25 install? If it was OP25, you can simply re-issue the install command. It doesn't take long to install OP25, so you don't have to wait overnight for it.

If your issue is with pybombs, and you're running 64bit, you need 4GB of RAM. You can increase the swap file size to compensate if this is your issue. This is a problem I ran into, which is why I'm mentioning it. Posting error messages would help too.

Also, you will need to install a ALSA library dependency to get the audio sinks to work on Mint. This must be done prior to installing gnuradio.

sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev

I tried to install OP25 on my Linux Mint Machine.  I let it run through the night, and when I woke up, the machine had crashed.  I would like to try again, but my hard drive is limited on space.  If I retry the PY Bomb, will it overwrite everything, or must I delete the failed install, and if I must delete, can anyone provide some guidance on that?

Kindly, Michael

Thanks again. I followed the directions on http://op25.osmocom.org/trac/wiki.png/wiki/InstallInstructionsPage.  I got the error after running the previously stated command.  The wiki indicates that there is no need to install GNU Radio first.  Understanding that you may not be able to help me with my error, if I want to retry the install following the instructions on the wiki, should/can I uninstall everything, and how, so I can start over, or will running the PYBombs again just overwrite what is there, so I do not eat up my limited hard drive space?

This is gonna sound goofy, but did you install gnuradio first? eg ./pybombs install gnuradio

OP25 has a list of dependencies, which gnuradio of course is the key one. Your issue sounds like a GNURadio problem though based on the installation time. It can take several hours to compile gnuradio depending on the hardware you're using. Without any kind of error message, it's kind of difficult to give advice.

Theoretically those instructions should work just fine. But now there is confusion as to where the failure is occurring. You shouldn't need to uninstall anything with pybombs, as it's pretty much self contained to two directories, "pybombs" and "target". If you want to remove the pybombs install anyway, just issue a ./pybombs remove gnuradio command in the pybombs directory and delete the directories and start over. Here is my advice to you at this point.

Go to your pybombs directory, and issue the following command: ./pybombs install gnuradio If this fails to install, you should subscribe to the discuss-gnuradio mailing list. You will get more answers there as to how you should proceed. Be thorough with your questions, the more details you can give the better. List the hardware specs you're using(CPU, ram, etc), and the OS and version.

Once you have a successful gnuradio build, OP25 should not give you and troubles. If it does, then this is the place for help.
