Re: SV: loop: can't get info on device

If device would be null then losetup would be called as 'losetup (null) image' because of the sprintf in losetup.c, and then you wouldn't get the message as observed, but rather (null): No such file or directory Or is there a custom sprintf() being used? I suspect with that things go wrong earlier, causing get_device() in extract_kernel.c to be called with an empty (non-null) image parameter. Too bad ViewCVS doesn't do xrefs ;-).

It seems this can happen in extract_kernel.c, choose_and_install(), if both Archive_dir and kernel_image_path are empty (). Checked concat_path() and this will indeed return an empty string in that case. I have no idea where these variables are set up though.

Re: a graphical interface for debian-installer
* Michael Cardenas wrote: Akira, Your udebs look great, but since the last time I talked to you, we discussed some more of the details here on the list with Sebastian Lay and Junichi, and came up with the following plan: It seems that for udebs with libraries, we need to have the following: - put the .so's into a subdir of /usr/lib, i.e. /usr/lib/packagename/libfoo.so - debs for libfoo and libfoo-dev - udeb for libfoo-udeb - debs for libfoo-udeb and libfoo-udeb-dev - The latter two will be build dependencies for any other package that builds an udeb depending on libfoo. - the udeb libraries need different sonames I have been working on that issue, and made some progress. But every little progress pops up more problems, so I would be glad if some library experts can give me some advice. This is what I have done for directfb (should be a generic issue for libaries that use other compile options for the installer than for the normal package): It builds several packages which are most imporatantly: * libdirectfb-0.9-16, containing: /usr/lib/libdirectfb-0.9.so.16.0.0 /usr/lib/libdirectfb-0.9.so.16 * libdirectfb-0.9-16-dev, containing: /usr/lib/libdirectfb.so /usr/lib/libdirectfb.la * libdirectfb-0.9-udeb-16, containing: /usr/lib/libdirectfb-0.9-udeb.so.16.0.0 /usr/lib/libdirectfb-0.9-udeb.so.16 which will be build as udeb and never be installed on a build system. * libdirectfb-0.9-udeb-16-dev, containing: /usr/lib/libdirectfb-0.9-udeb.so.16.0.0 /usr/lib/libdirectfb-0.9-udeb.so.16 /usr/lib/libdirectfb.so /usr/lib/libdirectfb.la which must be installed on a system, where you want to build programs for the installer. The problem is obvious: If I keep it like above the -dev packages must be declared conflicting. But this is not tolerable, because there could be packages that build a program for the normal distribution _and_ the installer. So we need both versions of the libraries on the build system installed, the question is: Where to put the development link for the udeb version of the library? Solution 1) Put everything what is needed for udeb developing in a subdirectory of /usr/lib. That could be easily accomplished by setting --libdir in configure. Drawback: Another compile run would be necessary, because on the installer we want the libraries to reside in /usr/lib. Unfortunatly this is the only solution I can think of. It is probably possible to only put the development link of the udeb into a subdirectory of /usr/lib but I do not know if this would confuse libtool... Any help is appreciated as well as comments of whether the concept as a whole is okay...

At present, I in my ignorance am well-equipped to locate the latter. If I wait until I have worked through it and found a path that works, then it will become clear enough that I will no longer be able to indentify clearly what's missing, what facts I have assumed but which might not be known to others.

If you plan on using all of the hard drive space for storage you won't need partitions either. I've been using several secondary hard drives (for storage only) without partition tables for quite some time now. Seriously though, is this idea stupid? Am I the only one who does this?

l=F6r 2003-02-15 klockan 11.03 skrev Martin Sj=F6gren:
The typical use of the progress bar API looks like this:
=20
=20
PROGRESS START 0 N foo/start
=20
PROGRESS STEP 1 foo/inc
...
PROGRESS STEP 1 foo/inc
...
(et.c.)
=20
PROGRESS STOP
=20
=20
Now, the problem is that the counter is increased before the text is
displayed. Wouldn't it make more sense to do a post-increment than a
pre-increment? I guess that would mean that PROGRESS STOP has to show
the final 100% value before leaving.
=20
How does that sound?
Here's one (somewhat hackish) way to do it:

debian-installer status 2003-02-21
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Since the last status report, almost three months have passed, we have had a quite successful alpha release and much has changed. Debian-installer is still able to install Debian, so that hasn't changed. :) The goals set in the last status report before alpha: menu ordering, unbreaking of mkfs, fix mounting and adding a log-tool are mostly done. Still outstanding is the addition of a self-test/logging tool. Martin has done some good work on getting Release file support into anna and the retrievers, though the archive doesn't have working Release files for sarge (since the debian-installer part of sarge is just a symlink to sid, for the time being); optimally, what I'd like is getting anna to support gpg and verify the full integrity of the install. One would then only have to trust the integrity of the initial boot media; a compromised mirror would be detected immediately. cdebconf has gotten a slang frontend, which seems to work reasonably well, but looks ugly and has some strange hangs unaccounted for in addition to at least a non-implemented progress bar. Screenshots[1] courtesy of Martin. We've also gotten a progress bar into cdebconf, as well as an HTTP backend. Some work has been done on the gtk frontend, but nothing solid yet. Help here is appreciated. Santiago Garcia Mantinan has done some great work on getting daily built CD netinst and business card-sized images online. [2] The netinst images contain debian-installer and the base packages, the business card-sized ones just debian-installer. A lot of work has been going into infrastructure work, such as finding a method of installing extra packages into the base system. This is needed for EVMS, grub and some other packages in addition to the kernel-installer. This means kernel-images will be installed from normal Debian packages, unlike in boot-floppies where they were just copied off the floppy/CD, something which has caused confusion in the past. We now have some new udebs as well, such as keyboard selection and language chooser and autopartitioner. Good work, those of you working on those. So, now it's time for the big and ugly TODO list. :) - - Porting. As usual, some ports are in a better shape than others, and some are in serious trouble even before they are begun. m68k and sparc32 are in the latter category, since they have problems with 2.4, which is needed due to devfs. - - de-uglification of the slang frontend and progress bar addition to cdebconf. - - gtkfb/graphical install. Work has been done, but this need to get more solid and onto the CDs. - - testing. More testing, more bug reports. If somebody who knows a bit about usability could begin looking and guiding us, it would be good. Also, having somebody with a good touch for English to go through the templates would be nice. - - automated installs and testing. If somebody could give automated installations and how to get those working better a shot, it'd be cool. Getting the report tool (which should fill out the report template available at http://raw.no/d-i/report-template.html) written would make it easier for testers to give us good reports. - - fix the ext3 problem; mkfs.ext3 gives an error about «file not found» (which is really that it can't find /etc/mtab). mkswap should also be added. - - base-config - d-i integration. The debconf db should be seeded with the values from debian-installer. Exactly how to do this is not clear yet. We are moving into a more polish/integration phase; most of the major building blocks are in place, but many are missing critical features. This means that non-x86 arches should get moving with regards to getting debian-installer at least roughly working, if they need changes to central parts of debian-installer. As always, feedback, flames, comments and ideas are appreciated.
