It was previously suggested to rename the inital boot dialog, like s/press Return to boot/press Return to install Debian/ or something 2. If I don't have a network cable plugged in, I get asked for an IP address. It's possible to go back and then select 'No network configuration' (or something), but having a button like 'Continue without configuring the network' right there intially would be better. Though that's probably i) not easy with debconf and ii) too late for sarge anyway 3. As it wasn't immediatly obvious how to reformat a partition with partman, I (perhaps foolishly) decided to delete and re-create /dev/hda6 (on which some other ext2 previously existed). However, the format dialog and subsequent dialogs talked about /dev/hda9 being created/written to, which made me a bit nervous. I finally figured out that partman renumbered the devices (see above partition listing), adding /dev/hda9 at the place of the former /dev/hda6 but calling it /dev/hda9. Oh well, that was a bit unsuspected and I had to change the /etc/fstab of my other partition to fix it. If it is possible the partition numbering should be preserved IMHO. 4. I did not install Grub so I can't tell whether my GNU/Hurd partition has been detected and included correctly, but I could test that another time if needed. 5. On reboot, during the bootup sequence, the framebuffer switched to a different font which yielded about twice as many lines on the console (to my liking). However, as soon as base-config started (or perhaps shortly before), the console became totally corrupted and scrambled. It was possible to figure out that I was looking at the base-config screen and changing virtual consoles worked, but I was not able to read anything. This was with the default 2.4 kernel. I later reinstalled passing 'kernel26' to d-i, which worked fine (though the console font stayed at the intial size/number of lines) 6. I did not select any tasks in tasksel but rather did 'apt-get install gnome' from the console (I don't like how both KDE and GNOME get installed by the desktop task, but oh well). I also installed x-window-system-core and before that discover, mdetect, read-edid. Configuring X was mostly alright and I noticed that the synaptic touchpad driver got loaded during it at one point. However, after reboot, the driver did not get loaded and X failed to come up. I had to manually add psmouse to /etc/modules. That's about it. Needless to say I'm pretty proud of y'all :) Michael Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/. --------------------------------------- Received: (at 264476-close) by bugs.debian.org; 25 Aug 2004 08:23:07 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Aug 25 01:23:07 2004 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from newraff.debian.org [208.185.25.31] (mail) by spohr.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1Bzt3i-0008SU-00; Wed, 25 Aug 2004 01:23:06 -0700 Received: from katie by newraff.debian.org with local (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1Bzsy3-0001ts-00; Wed, 25 Aug 2004 04:17:15 -0400 From: Joshua Kwan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Katie: $Revision: 1.51 $ Subject: Bug#264476: fixed in netcfg 1.01 Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sender: Archive Administrator <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2004 04:17:15 -0400 Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_03_25 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on spohr.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-6.0 required=4.0 tests=BAYES_00,HAS_BUG_NUMBER autolearn=no version=2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_03_25 X-Spam-Level: X-CrossAssassin-Score: 5 Source: netcfg Source-Version: 1.01 We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of netcfg, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive: netcfg-dhcp_1.01_i386.udeb to pool/main/n/netcfg/netcfg-dhcp_1.01_i386.udeb netcfg-static_1.01_i386.udeb to pool/main/n/netcfg/netcfg-static_1.01_i386.udeb netcfg_1.01.dsc to pool/main/n/netcfg/netcfg_1.01.dsc netcfg_1.01.tar.gz to pool/main/n/netcfg/netcfg_1.01.tar.gz netcfg_1.01_i386.udeb to pool/main/n/netcfg/netcfg_1.01_i386.udeb A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is attached.
