Dear Devuaners,
the Devuan team is currently working towards a Release Candidate for
Devuan 2 "ASCII". Most of the parts should be already in place, but
particularly in the policykit/consolekit/elogind area we are in need of
some more thorough testing in order to guarantee correct installation
of any of the supported desktop environments as well as smooth upgrades
of existing installations.
Here is where you can make a valuable contribution: If you happen to
have a spare Devuan (Jessie|ASCII) or a Debian (Jessie|Stretch) desktop
machine (virtual or hardware) that you feel brave enough to sacrifice
for testing the upgrade paths - please do so! Ideally, you should report
any irregularities you encounter in this thread. The main observation
focus should be set on session related functionality, especially the
ability to user mount removable drives and to restart or shutdown the
machine using the controls offered by the respective desktop environment.
Furthermore, testing fresh installs in various configurations using the
latest ASCII mini.iso [1] will be much appreciated, although we should
already have a pretty good coverage in that area, but more testing is
always a Good Thing[TM].
I'm on it, so far checked md5 and it's okay and I dd to usb and it boots
to the installer. :)
Currently I'm making some new partitions to test on and that's going to
take awhile. I will be installing TDE-Trinity for Stretch and get back
to you ASAP.
This install is from the current ASCII release with the 4.9.0-4 kernel
now fully upgraded and clean with TDE and it's working on 4 different
computers intel and amd from 2 cores to 8 cores.
Partitions are ready for new install.
Everything seems to be okay on this Dell Latitude E6430 laptop,
TDE-Trinity is installed and updated, I have another install going on
another computer, it's a T20 Dell server.
Later,
