Failed to install packages correctly

Hi,
duringf my latest upgrade, (on x86_64) I had a strange problem: for almost all packages, pacman wrote:
error: command failed to execute correctly
Directly after that, my system became unusable, because every command returned: "Too many levels of symbolic links".
I had to force power off, reboot did of course not work. A fsck on the root partition from a live cd showed some errors on the jfs file system, but it could be recovered, at least it is in a stable state again.
I mounted it and made a backup. Then I noticed dead symlinks on the partition.
I created a new ext4 fs on the partition and restored the backup. But I still can't chroot into the system because chroot cannot execute bash, still too many levels of symbolic links.
I can at least use pacman with the -r option to list the packages. I tried pacman -S base -r /oldroot , but I still get the same error (error: command failed to execute correctly).
Any further advices? Or the fastest way to reinstall the system?

Thanks Pavel.
I have all patches installed on my servers that described in Solaris[TM] Live Upgrade Software: Minimum Patch Requirements
https://support.us.oracle.com/oip/faces/secure/km/DocumentDisplay.jspx?id=1004881.1
Is 10_sparc_lustarter_patchset.zip can be download in MOS? I searched in Patches and Updates but can't find it. Can you send me the link or internal NFS location of the 10_sparc_lustarter_patchset.zip file?
Thanks
Tiffany

I found some other cases of this, but it was from people not having multilib enabled.
Also tried runnning pacman -Syyu. Didn't work.
And yes, the package name is correct.

Patchadd interrupted - now failing to install patch correctly

I had started a patch installation when one of my kind users compromised the system by filling all available swapspace.
I tried tto get into the system but failed. After about 10 minutes I did - what I should have avoided to do - a control C on the
unresponsive patchadd command.
The result is that the patch is not committed, but also not removed. The system's response to a patchrm is
beron# patchrm 127144-03

Done!
Checking patches that you specified for removal.
Done!
Approved patches will be removed in this order:

The installation of patch 127144-03 was interrupted.
Patchadd needs to be re-invoked to ensure proper installation of the patch.
Patchrm is terminating.
WARNING: patchrm returned <14>
And if I intend to do a re-install on the patch itself I get
oberon# patchadd 127144-03

Done!
Loading patches requested to install.
Done!
The following requested patches are already installed on the system
Requested to install patch 127144-03 is already installed on the system.
No patches to check dependency.
Any suggestion on what I could do to tidy the system up, would be very welcome.

Also, OS X does not seem to recognize that I have bootcamp: I cannot select it in the start up disk area. VMWare cannot prepare my Boot Camp partition as a virtual machine. Why am I encountering so many problems?
Edit: Oh and the Built in iSight doesn't work either. Awesome.
You should solve one problem at a time.
If your system does not recognize Windows, don't start playing with VM ware or Parallels. You don't fix something by bypassing it.
If you cannot boot into your Windows partition using bootcamp, that that's the first thing to fix.

My hard drive fried and had to be replaced. I'm trying to install CS4 from my original discs but keep getting this error message - "One or more of the required components of Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard failed to install correctly". A customer service rep gave me a link to download off the Adobe site, but when I try to open the file to run it, I get this error message - "A problem occurred extracting the archive".
Can anyone help?

Yep. Nothing happens at all. Windows tries to execute the uninstaller, but I don't get any other screen and all activity stops for the MSI. I monitored it in Process Monitor and the MSI executable appears, but is quickly ended, like it couldn't find anything or something.
It's as if windows has a blank entry in Programs and Features, because it used to show the size of the Adobe application in the "Size" column. Now it's just blank. Link to screenshot below:
http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/5006/screenshotcaf.jpg
Note the install date. That's when I was able to successfully reinstall it. Now I can't even do that. I should also mention I tried Revo Uninstaller. It deleted one small registry key, but nothing changed.
By the way, is the CS cleaner supposed to ask for a disc in the drive when you run it? It refused to run unless I had one in it, so I used my install dvd.

Adobe Reader 11 MUI failing to install using transform and patch 11.0.10 via cmd/SCCM in one package

Hello,
I have all the files, MST and the patch located in one folder. I am trying to use the following MSI command lines locally on my computer before I can attempt to deploy this via SCCM 2012. I am having issues either with the package not compatible or using /p and getting the MSIEXEC help window prompt. I've tried a few command lines:
msiexec /i AcroRead.msi PATCH="AdbeRdrUpd11010_MUI.msp" TRANSFORMS="AcroRead.mst"
msiexec /i AcroRead.msi /p AdbeRdrUpd11010_MUI.msp TRANSFORMS="AcroRead.mst"
msiexec /i AcroRead.msi TRANSFORMS="AcroRead.mst" /p AdbeRdrUpd11010_MUI.msp
Adding /qn on the end makes the install work silently when not attempting to include the patch, but fails to install it silently when only using the transform file that I have selected in the wizard to silently install.
We have 5 different versions from 8.0 through 10.0 in our environment of 3000 machines. Sadly this was not managed before...I can easily update our current 11.0 versions that range from 11 to 11.0.09 by only applying the patch to them but need to get the full install working for the 2500 machines I need to target.
I tried using the /a command which seems to work, but creates program files and common files folders inside my adobe folder on the desktop when executing it from the cmd. Am i suppose to package that folder all in one and then use the /i command to install adobe? I've been researching for a week but finally hit a wall where I dont think I am getting anywhere.
Thank you in advance,
Kevin

I have almost answered my own question as I just came across this link
https://it-god.co.uk/deploy-adobe-reader-xi-11-0-10-with-sccm-2012/
This is for the plain reader version, but we use MUI now (due to other languages required in our environmet). I get to the part where it asks to apply the patch to the AIP folder but it fails.
msiexec /p AdbeRdrUpd11010.msp /a C:\Reader\11.0.10\AcroRead.msi
I changed this to account for the MUI naming,
msiexec /p AdbeRdrUpd11010_MUI.msp /a C:\Reader\11.0.10\AcroRead.msi
But I get the windows prompt that says this package can not be opened, please verify. I ensured that both the patch and base install were MUI versions, and i downloaded fresh copies of each. I also unblocked the patch so that it can run. No luck so far.
EDIT: Using another guide i found the command line (modified the path to my location) and this worked,
msiexec /a C:\adobe\Reader\11.0.10\AcroRead.msi /qb /p AdbeRdrUpd11010_MUI.msp TARGETDIR=C:\adobe\Reader\11.0.10\

Error target not found base-level failed to install the packages

Im trying to install arch on my Virtualbox VM and its just returning:
error target not found base-level failed to install the packages to new root
What do I do? I have selected the right mirrors, pinging google, my own VPS's and a few other servers and they all pinged fine. Any ideas on whats up? Think my VPN's IP has been blocked and thats why I cant download anything? I have tried pacman -Ssy and it worked fine but still no.

Please read the following and follow the advice included:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855
With that, be sure to clarify whether the typo was just here on the forum, or whether it was also in your original command. If it was in your original command, that would explain your results.

Installation failed installation completed through some components failed to instal correctly

Hello i've been really exited to donload photoshop and so i decided to try the free version i downloaded creative cloud and went into th eapps and click on photoshop try it free i waited a few 30 mins and it stopped and told me this
installation failed installation completed through some components failed to instal correctly.
and then i was like whatttt?!?!?!?!?
so I decided to come here and ask why this is happening please answer ASAP I really need photoshop for important stuff!!!

Try restarting your computer, then try again. Awhile back, some of the apps which I think included photoshop require the microsoft runtime to be updated. That runtime requires a restart to finish installing. But since it is a piggyback program, the error code telling you do so is hidden in the log file.
If it still does not install let us know.
