Mosbuild 4.2 error

[FizzyTea]

Hi folks,

Yesterday i managed to install Raspbian and Mooie 4.2 on a 16 GB Micro SD card. Moode 4.2 is running very fine since.

However, today i started the same build process on a 8 GB Micro SD card and now the installation script failed. 
Restarted the process from scratch again; same result.

Mosbrief output:

pi@moode:~ $ mosbrief
// STEP 2 - Direct build so no need to expand Root partition
// STEP 3A - Install core packages
** Error: unable to purge triggerhappy
** Error: image build exited
** Error: reboot to resume the build
// STEP 3A - Install core packages
** Error: unable to purge triggerhappy
** Error: image build exited
** Error: reboot to resume the build
pi@moode:~ $ mosbrief

I was bad and manually rebooted the Pi a couple times, no result however.
Then 1 waited for an hour or more, also no results.

What could have happened?

Cheers,
Martin

As a workaround you could:

1. Copy your 16gb sd with the working moode with dd or similar.
2. Use pishrink to reduce the size of the image.
3. Flash the shrunken image to you 8gb sd.
4. Use the moodecfg.txt method described in the setup guide to change hostname etc upon boot.

This is probably quicker than a fresh build anyway.
