Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

I have a TS7800 booting from an SDCard with the image downloaded from the TS 
site.

I am just starting to try programming on this machine.

When I entered the command GCC test.cpp it complained that it could not find 
cc1plus.  After some googling it seemed like the command

apt-get install build-essentials

was called for.  However, after packages are downloaded I get the error 
messages 

Checking init scripts...
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: line 1: /usr/bin/head: Permission denied
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: line 1: /usr/bin/od: Permission denied
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-18lenny1_arm.deb 
(--unpack):
 subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-18lenny1_arm.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
:/# /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: line 
1: /usr/bin/head: Permission denied
bash: /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst:: No such file 
or directory

I have verified the last line of the error message - the reason for the failure 
is that the directory /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci is missing

I get basically the same messages if I try

apt-get install python.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Jim
