bash: fdisk: command not found

Post by zander »

hi,

that is the error i got when i tried to run 'fdisk -l" (fdisk dash-el) via ssh into the bubba and an su to root.

when i tried to install it with 'apt-get install fdisk' i got this...

Code: Select all

Package fdisk is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  util-linux
E: Package fdisk has no installation candidate
bubba:/usr/bin# util-linux -l
bash: util-linux: command not found
bubba:/usr/bin# apt-get install util-linux
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
util-linux is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
bubba:/usr/bin#

please advise.
