Post Installation script

Hello,

i just installed bunsen labs for the first time.

after the installation finished, i had to shutdown the computer, so i exited the post installation script that automatically pops up on a fresh install.

how can i re-run this script, i assume it asks questions about what i use the computer and tries to optimize the system for that.

Thanks!!

Type bl-welcome in the terminal.

Re: Post Installation script

Thanks!

I am getting the following error now though.. any ideas?

------------------------------[ page 2 of 15 ]------------------------------

  CHECK REPOSITORIES
  ------------------
 
  Checking apt sources list for possible missing components...
 
  A normal BunsenLabs setup uses the 'contrib' and 'non-free' components of
  the Debian repositories, but they seem to be missing from your apt sources
  list. Without them you will be unable to install some packages, for example
  the Flash Plugins. Would you like to add 'contrib' and 'non-free' to your
  sources list?
 
enable "contrib" and "non-free"? [Y/n] Y

  Editing sources list failed. This script will exit.
  Please open /etc/apt/sources.list in a text editor and check the entries
  before running bl-welcome again.

Press any key to continue.

here is my sources.list file:

#

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot i386 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20160709-23:37]/ jessie contrib main non-free

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot i386 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20160709-23:37]/ jessie contrib main non-free

Re: Post Installation script

Hi, you appear to be missing

deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main non-free contrib

which seems to happen from time to time for some users, for reasons unknown (network connectivity issues during install?)
Anyhow the default sources.list looks like this

# 

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot i386 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20160705-22:49]/ jessie contrib main non-free

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot i386 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20160705-22:49]/ jessie contrib main non-free

deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main non-free contrib
#deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main non-free contrib

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-updates main contrib non-free

@mods would it be useful to have the default posted somewhere we could refer people to?

Yes, it certainly would:
