Bug#607766: Fresh install of Squeeze on Thinkpad Edge 11; wireless network problems and grub oddity

2010-12-22 Thread Christian PERRIER
reassign 607766 netcfg
retitle 607766 Fails to configure WEP wireless network without DHCP
thanks

Quoting Ian Wakeling (ian.wakel...@ntlworld.com):

 First, it failed to find any accesspoints. My accesspoint doesn't broadcast, 
 so 
 I didn't expect it to find that, but my neighbours are all noisy, so it 
 should 
 have found those and it didn't. No matter, it offered me the option of 
 entering 
 the essid manually, which was fine and it then went on to ask me for the WEP 
 key, also good. It said it was trying to configure with DHCP, which I don't 
 have enabled, so I waited for that to fail and then configured it manually. 
 No 
 error messages at this point, everything looked fine. Then it failed to 
 retrieve anything from the mirrors. Looking at the log on console 4, it 
 claimed it had authorised with the access point, but going to console 2 and 
 looking at ip link said the interface was down and I couldn't get it to 
 come 
 up. The ethernet configuration looked OK, but the lack of wireless tools 
 meant 
 I couldn't check the wireless configuration.

That seems to be a bug that could be investigated in netcfg:
WEP+manual network failing. There may be some timeout quirks somewhere.

 Although GRUB identified the two Windows partitions, they didn't appear in 
 the 
 boot options on initial reboot. Running update-grub later on fixed it.


Should be fixed when the last versions of grub-installer migrate to
testing, as far as I've followed these stories.

 The only other minor gripe was that the task selection interface offers 
 Graphical Desktop and not having done a fresh install for quite a while, I 
 naïvely selected it, expecting to be offered the choice of which desktop... 
 but 
 it went ahead and installed Gnome, which I did not want! I have absolutely no 
 interest in a debate about the relative merits of the various desktops, but 
 if 
 the installer really can't offer the choice of desktops, the option should at 
 least be labelled Gnome so that it's clear what is being offered and those 
 who want something else can avoid wasting lots of time and bandwidth.
 Otherwise, it all went smoothly and everything worked - well done, thanks!


This is a FAQ for D-I. There are tons of reasons for which we don't
want to prompt users for the kind of graphical environment they want
to use. GNOME being the default environment for Debian, it is logical
that Graphical desktop brings GNOME in without an extra annoying
question.

Alternative GUI environment can be chosen through a boot command line
option (see installation guide for details).

I reassign this bug report to netcfg for the WEP issue. Many thanks
for your report and the good details and explanations it contains.

Comments/Problems:

I had a wired connection so I didn't install the wireless firmware from the 
tarball.  Adding wireless afterwards was a bit of a pain, but that's not an 
installer problem.
Also, the laptop task asked about starting hddtemp on boot.  Not sure if that 
should be preconfigured instead of asked.

Bug#426756: the mentioned patch would be wonderful applied against lenny sources

2010-12-22 Thread Holger Fischer

Would you mind integrating this patch, as it makes lenny udhcpc package capable 
for use with pypxeboot.

I think it's a bit more work, to apply the patch against busybox-based-udhcpc 
in squeeze, but would love to see it there too

Kind regards

Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary?

2010-12-22 Thread Nima Azarbayjany
I have installed Debian Squeeze using the beta2 installer downloaded from
Debian Installer's page (I mean, I didn't use the weekly snapshot).  The
following is the output of fdisk on my hard drive in which I noticed
something I am not familiar with: Partition 1 does not end on cylinder
boundary.  I searched and it turned out to be not a thing to worry about (am
I right?) but I thought I'd better be reporting it so experts may decide.
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of it?

This is no uptodate Squeeze system. (To be exact, mklibs is still broken
there, so it is easy to tell.) On the other side, X11-support is not
there in the Lenny installer.

Since Squeeze, several of the tools select better partition allignments
without taking the not longer relevant cylinder value into account.
Other tools may warn about that, but this is now considered buggy.

Yes. However there is no reference to libxcb everywhere, see the latest
build log[1].

... no. At least for me it stops with that non-weak
Perl_ptr_table_fetch missing (mklibs v0.1.30)

 Yes. However there is no reference to libxcb everywhere, see the latest
 build log[1].

... It seems that my build requires many more packages than official
one (more than 400 instead of aprox. 100). That would be the problem.
I only try to use different kernel (started with current lenny's
official one). So, is official d-i kernel .config available? However,
I have no idea how could kernel change cause that libxcb is included
in required package list.

How to build a cdrom debian-installer with preseed.cfg

2010-12-22 Thread Jose Luis Zabalza
Hello everybody

Is there a smart way to build a d-i initrd with pressed.cfg inside?

Now I uncompress, copy preseed.cfg and compress again the initrd.gz file.

is this the only one way to get a initrd.gz with preseed?

Note: I have not found any clear information about this on Debian
GNU/Linux Installation Guide or Internals manual.

Re: GTK

2010-12-22 Thread Christian PERRIER
Quoting Michal Filka (michal.fi...@gmail.com):
 I meant, how can I remove GTK support when building installer. In
 other words how to generate debian installer image completely without
 gtk support. I have some troubles in generating d-i image, so I want
 to try if removing gtk support can resolve them.

You need to edit files in installer/build/pkg-lists

Given that your installation was a complete success, I do as
usual with reports for successful installations: I close the bug..:-)

This does not of course mean you weren't right to report. Knowing the
installations are correct is important for the d-i team.

Many thanks for your time testing the Debian Installer and reporting
your results. Have fun with your new Debian system!

Bug#607832: Grub fails to write the MBR of the hard disk, if you use a USB flash drive for the installation

2010-12-22 Thread Manuel Hachtkemper
Package: debian-installer
Version: 20101127
Severity: normal
Tags: squeeze

I've installed a debian-installer/squeeze_netboot (using unetbootin) on a USB 
flash drive.

When you get to the point, where the grub2-part asks if I want to write to the 
MBR it fails. The problem is, that my USB flash drive is /dev/sda and my 
internal hard disk is /dev/sdb and grub tries to write to /dev/sda.
Using grub-install on another getty works for me...

Best regards,
Manuel Hachtkemper

PS: If you need any debug-output just tell me.

2010-12-22 Thread Manuel Hachtkemper
I just saw, that if you choose no you get the opportunity to choose the 
device.

Nevertheless i would assume, that the install-dialog is clever enough, to know 
where /boot (or /) is and would suggest this hard disk.

Package: hw-detect
Version: 1.83
Severity: normal

It's typical for netcfg to put allow-hotplug in /etc/network/interfaces
for the interface d-i was installed on IME. I get the sense that 
hw-detect.hotplug is buggy somehow:

Dec  3 16:13:37 net/hw-detect.hotplug: Detected hotpluggable network interface 
lo
Dec  3 16:13:54 net/hw-detect.hotplug: Detected hotpluggable network interface

Dec  4 01:15:22 net/hw-detect.hotplug: Detected hotpluggable network interface

This can result in ifup -a not upping it on boot, and a hotplug event
never bringing it up either.

 I wonder why the latter isn't happening?  If you're getting a udev event
 in d-i, you should get one in the installed system too.  That should hit
 /lib/udev/rules.d/80-drivers.rules, call /lib/udev/net.agent, and that
 should bring up the interface.
 
 It might be worth tracing that chain to find out which bit is breaking.
 hw-detect and netcfg seem OK here at least in principle.

Yeah, I think I was mistaken, ifup seems to be running, it's just that
dhclient runs in the background and can give up within a second or 2, so
there is no indication of why the network might not come up.

Re: How to build a cdrom debian-installer with preseed.cfg

2010-12-22 Thread Ferenc Wagner
Jose Luis Zabalza jlz.3...@gmail.com writes:

 Is there a smart way to build a d-i initrd with pressed.cfg inside?
 Now I uncompress, copy preseed.cfg and compress again the initrd.gz file.
 is this the only one way to get a initrd.gz with preseed?

No, but this is the most general way.  The other is using multiple
initrds, if your boot method supports it.  The Syslinux family does, you
can supply multiple files separated by commas.  Probably you could also
emulate this by concatenating initrd images with appropriate padding,
but I never tried this myself.

 Note: I have not found any clear information about this on Debian
 GNU/Linux Installation Guide or Internals manual.

The principle is there: you have to get a file called preseed.cfg into
the root directory.  You choose the way...

First two install attempts gave me the No common CD-ROM message.
Returning to get debug logs, it found it just fine, of course.

reportbug from the menu popped Please install the python-vte

Falling back to 'text' interface.  It entered the text interface 
just fine but I couldn't get back to nano after reflexively ^Z'ing
out to get the partition table.

 Given that your installation was a complete success, I do as
 usual with reports for successful installations: I close the bug..:-)

 This does not of course mean you weren't right to report. Knowing the
 installations are correct is important for the d-i team.

 Many thanks for your time testing the Debian Installer and reporting
 your results. Have fun with your new Debian system!

Re: How to build a cdrom debian-installer with preseed.cfg

 Is there a smart way to build a d-i initrd with pressed.cfg inside?
 Now I uncompress, copy preseed.cfg and compress again the initrd.gz file.
 is this the only one way to get a initrd.gz with preseed?

 No, but this is the most general way.  The other is using multiple
 initrds, if your boot method supports it.  The Syslinux family does, you
 can supply multiple files separated by commas.  Probably you could also
 emulate this by concatenating initrd images with appropriate padding,
 but I never tried this myself.

 Note: I have not found any clear information about this on Debian
 GNU/Linux Installation Guide or Internals manual.

 The principle is there: you have to get a file called preseed.cfg into
 the root directory.  You choose the way...

Thanks for your answer. I was thinking, for example, building d-i, if
preseed.cfg exist on whateveryouwant directory, it will be copied on
root directory of initrd image

Thanks any way.
