Checking bootstrapper version

[KevinIN72]

Hi im running ubuntu server with the latest kernal installed and it has been running fine for a good 6 month. Now when it trys to update it sits at the "Checking bootstrapper version ...". I cant even install a new srcds on my server because to that. Its on the internet and everything is working fine besides that. Thanks Kevin

arg to late, i reformatted and am reinstalling linux.

pfff
pls have in mind some thing:

linux is not win32. you will never have to format and reinstall. all is being possible to upgrade or repair on the fly

Yeah, I think ubuntu was to much for my poor old pc. So I put xubuntu on it hoping it would run a little faster.

try slackware ^^ but you will have to compile a own 2.6.x kernel. on default install it brings a 2.4.x

SlumBeotch! I feel like an idjut!

sudo ./steam -command update -game left4dead -dir . -verify_all

Since I chmod'd everything so that I was owner I didn't think sudo was necessary.
