I have a workstation in my lab, and the Bio-Linux install DVD simply will not boot on it, no matter what I try. I can boot it from a standard Ubuntu 12.10 DVD though, and I've installed that instead, so now I'm trying to get BL7 up and running. I'm following the instructions on <a href="http://nebc.nerc.ac.uk/tools/bio-linux/other-bl-docs/package-repository">http://nebc.nerc.ac.uk/tools/bio-linux/other-bl-docs/package-repository</a> but I'm running into a few dependency issues. Also, I notice that there are several packages that are present in both the bio-linux and Launchpad repositories (for example, emboss, paml, and qiime) - which one takes precedence? Any pointers would be much appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><br><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>best regards</span><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>Jeremy<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>--<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>Dr. Jeremy Martinson<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>University of Pittsburgh<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>(412) 624-5646<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:jmartins@pitt.edu">jmartins@pitt.edu</a> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></body></html>
