E:Can't symlink /system/bin/bugreport

Hello,
I was playing around with Donut, building it from source and flashing it, and it wouldn't work, so I wiped the device, and when trying to flash the stock ADP1 firmware image (on my ADP1), it gets this error:
Code:
E:Can't symlink /system/bin/bugreport
Anybody know how to fix this? (I'm not using Apps2SD)
Thanks,
Isaac

Problems installing Eclair Roms?

Title is self explanatory.
I can install roms like boogieclair, but i can't install kingxkxlick's, open community eclair, or jubeh's rom.
i get errors like but mostly.
E:Can't chown/mod /system/xbin/procmem
(No such file or directory)
E:Failure at line 79:
set_perm 0 0 06755 SYSTEM:xbin/procmem
I have hard SPL, with the latest Radio with a G1
You need the SPL in my sig (1.33.2005), not hardSPL. Most of the roms make mention of this in the first post.

A quick update-script question

Hi there,
I am building a .zip file that will install RTL support for some applications , and got stuck at the update-script part.
I have two files named CalendarFix.apk , and GalleryFix.apk , I would like to install them directly from the recovery.
Tried to put them both in system/app and data/app with :
copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:
set_perm_recursive 0 0 0755 0644 SYSTEM:app
copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:
set_perm 1000 1000 0771 DATA:app
But no luck , they wont install .
Is there a command that I need to use to install them ?
I thought to use run_program , though I did`nt see it in any rom update-script code.
I need to -
Extract CalendarFix.apk and GalleryFix.apk , delete the old once (Calendar.apk,Gallery.apk) and install the new once .
Any help would be appreciated,
Danny.

That's and updater-script problem. Update-script problem lol you should know that you need to edify it to convert update-script into updater-script. And you also have other issues to fix.
