how much free disk space do you have on /tmp ??

you need to have at LEST 2GB free.

ups
i have 1,5 gb (ramdisk)....
It works! thank you

Hi,

I am on Ubuntu

As Amnesia wasn't working anymore and because I saw a more recent version on the frictional website, I deleted my previous Amnesia folder and downloaded the latest version. But now, when i try to run the .sh I have this error "Couldn't find any suitable frontend for your system" with a message about a lack of space on root ... And this message was talking about some space (some mo) but now it's speaking about 0 bytes while I only tried to install amnesia ... I don't understand what I can do ... I have a lot of space on home, and i can't access root to free some space.

There is 264.5kb on tmp and 1.9GB of free space ...

Maybe I need to extend root space (which is weird, I don't have any problems with other installations and Ubuntu run smoothly)?.

I am stuck here.

The installer extracts itself to /tmp, then extracts some more, and then finally runs.

So you need a good 2.5-3GB free on /tmp OR specify --target with a location that has more free space.

pass --help to the installer for other startup options.

I'm working with the developer of the installer to find better ways of handling the packaging and extraction of the installer to improve this experience. It's not so bad with small 30-60MB games, but with Amnesia or Penumbra collection.. it's quite painful. My /tmp is always 2-3GB so I never ran into this locally:-D

Oh, and BTW.. I use Fedora 16 myself...

Thanks for the quick answer.

I tried
without success

He spoke about 315mo left, then about 0 again ... I guess the amnesia installer fill the /tmp ... and so that I did something wrong in the command line.

try

--frontend and -f are aliases for the same command and --target dir means "Replace dir with the directory"

It worked !!! Thank you very much. Sorry for inconvenience.
