Re: Updated installation images for Debian Ports 2019-11-22
Thank you for the help, I've re-downloaded and re-burned the image, I must have been using an older version because it does now sense the hardware. Unfortunately, it now fails during the base system install, there seems to be something wrong with the whiptail package. It doesn't give a specific error. Installation media integrity check passes.

I'm using the ISO image from the pool, I'm installing from a CD to a raw disk on a system that does not have Linux on it. Can you list the CD contents of pool-alpha/main/l/linux? I'm using it on the video output of the DS10L I'm trying to set it up on (using aboot option 0), I can reboot and run aboot option 1 and copy it from the terminal if you need a specific/complete listing. An example is: srm-modules-5.2.0-2-alpha-generic-di_5.2.9-2_alpha.udeb. The other contents are *-modules-5.2.0-2-alpha-generic-di_5.2.9-2_alpha.udeb. If it lists 5.2.9-2, you are using the wrong image. I just again verified the ISO from [1] and it definitely has 5.3.9-3 udebs in it.

uname -a gives: 5.3.0-2-alpha-generic and Debian 5.3.9-2 (2019-11-12). Exact error message is that no kernel modules can be found. I'm using the ISO image from the pool, I'm installing from a CD to a raw disk on a system that does not have Linux on it.

Are you sure about that? I just checked the CD image contents in pool-alpha/ main/l/linux/ and the udebs have the correct version number which is 5.3.9-3. What kernel version does "uname -a" report? Did you boot your own custom kernel? Adrian

Alpha installer errors with a mismatch between installer kernel version and archive kernel version. On 11/22/2019 7:23 PM, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz wrote: Hi! I just uploaded updated installation images 2019-07-22 for the following Debian Ports architectures [1]: * alpha * hppa * ia64 * m68k * powerpc * ppc64 * sparc64 debian-installer images for netboot and sh4 can be found in [2]. I have successfully tested the sparc64 image, but not the other images, so the issue with the kernel module versions mismatch has been fixed. The images for alpha and ia64 could have issues because of the missing vim package [3]. Someone needs to have a look at vim on these two architectures.
