Dang Al... Some of those I was actually trying to forget... ;)
About the only one you mentioned that I didn't learn to program in was RPG, but your 'Ugh!' gives me hope that it might be good for my sanity that I missed that one... lol

Hmm.. Basic, GW-Basic, MS-Basic, and how many others ???
C, C+, C++, and I seem to remember more nightmarish variants.
And I lost ALL those reference/coding books in the fire... :'(
(all my radios, computers, tools too - very sad about that)
(even my first CoCo and Silver RS Model-1 Level-2)
(the Drakes, Hammarlunds, Moto's, TMC's, Swans, Cleggs, and MSR's)
Just getting back into the hobby with these Baofengs.
Have my eye on the Baofeng 5001 for the BlackRAM.

Does anyone know how to convert Hex' to Binary any more ?
Hi Hi on the years.
The PDP-11 in the early 80's and the IBM-360 in the mid 70's.

I saw mention of papertape and punchcards in another post.
I can hardly wait to read that one, and FSM it.
(FSM = Fold, Spindle, Mutilate)
Did punchtape in military as RTTY Op on Angry26Delta.
ROTFLMFAO
Thanks!

Laughing at you Bruce., from your list of programming languages, that should date you date about my 70ish (or so).

My list looks like: ASM, APL, BASIC (of way too many varieties to count), C, COBOL, FORTRAN, RPG (ugh!), and I'm sure others ... sure would be nice is things were as simple as they were in the old day .... << smile >>

And I thought v0.4.0 was ancient... lol
I am still receiving the SAME error with v0.4.1
I have downloaded chirp-daily-20160802.tar.gz
Sitting in '~/.install' directory
Next step please ? <=====

I can't believe this seems like so much of a process.
I've set up Cat-5 Ether and wireless networks from
Slack v3.2 on up to v7, written and compiled source
on various distros, without major problems.
Coded in ASM, Fortran, Pascal, CoBOL, BASIC, and others.
Can't understand why this isn't flowing better...

But at this point I'm not assuming ANYthing...
I'm going to ASK, even is sounds like a silly question.
After the download, what is the next step ?

Unfortunately 0.4.1 is ancient. Get the latest tarball version at <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/>.

Got v0.4.1 to run.
Tried to overlay the daily (0802) and re-run, but got the same errors as before.

UV-82HP is in the truck, will bring it in and try to reprogram it tomorrow.

73 4 now

Chirp does not need compiling, just download tarball and unpack. Enter

 Yup...
        
 I guess I left out the most important fact responsible for the error
        
 message, which is the OS on the NetBook is Debian Squeeze v6, to which
        
 doing a major update to is not an option.
        
 Have tried installing the latest version of Chirp under that, but there
        
 are just too many errors in compile making that not feasible.  And since
        
 there is no .Deb distribution package available, compiling source is the
        
 only option.
        
 
        
 That was my main reason for becoming interes
        
 ted in
        
a LiveBoot
        
 application on a USB stick, to bypass all that hassle.
        
 
        
 I have managed to create the Ubuntu based TharPuppy stick to boot from,
        
 so now perhaps I'll be able to install the latest version of Chirp for
        
 Ubuntu.
        
 And the problem would be solved...
        
 
        
 I was thinking that if someone here had built a RAM boot/run image
        
 specifically for (with) Chirp, it might save me some time.
        
 Shame on me for wanting to save time, and not duplicate efforts done by
        
 another already...
        
 
        
 I'll just schlog along on my own and see how things turn out.
