Architectures that are still having problems with 2.4 should probably
be dropped. Since they aren't likely to work with 2.6 when it is released
or any future kernel release. We cannot support old kernels indefinitely.

It would be nice to have somewhat working support for 2.2 kernels, for we might be unable to ship woody with decent support for some other arches.

I would download one of the inofficial net-install images for woody and also go for woody during installation when it comes to choosing the distribution. Afterwards do change "stable" to "testing" in your /etc/apt/sources.list file, and then # apt-get update # apt-get dist-upgrade Do this before you install any additional software, so you don't have to pull some stuff twice. Oh, and, during installation, leave out the dselect and tasksel steps. Better install aptitude by "apt-get install aptitude" after you did the above mentioned dist-upgrade, but this is only my personal opinion about the dselect and the tasksel tools, but obviously some people seem to share this opinion with me (or better, I share it with them). As I said before, I don't have any experience with the net install images. But this is probably the safest way and should lead to success without further hassles. But if you want to go for absolutely sure, download the full CD-Images, but then you have to download several CD's since the different boot flavors are on different discs AFAIR. > * delete old installation or keep old testing installation an woody will > overwrite ? No use anymore for the old one. If you want to go for sure, wipe it out before you do a fresh install with some cool tools (dd or the like). But you can also choose to totally repartition during the new install, this will wipe the partition table anyway, and the following formatting should do the rest ;) Hope I could help! PS: Maybe it would be a good idea to add a comment to the net install page on d.o which makes the purpose of the d-i test images more clear? -- Best wishes, Andi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The problem is that the testing CDs' main purpose are testing the new installer, and unfortunately the web site doesn't make this clear enough.

The library in the normal .deb package has many features enabled that we do not need in the installer library. The biggest disadvantage is, that it is linked against xlib (I suppose for some additional font rendering). This blows up the library unnecessarily and would require us to package xlib for the installer as well (what we definitly not want to do if we can go without). So I used other compile options to compile the library, producing a binary incompatible library. > Why do you need a special udeb-dev? To provide the new library for installation on the build system, as well as an appropriate development link. We need this for other udebs, that contain programs or libraries that wil be linked against libdirectfb.

I guess it would have been sensible to install woody (stable) if you are using the stable net install images. Once installed, you can always apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade to sarge (after providing the testing lines in sources.list). If you installed using the testing images, don't expect it to work flawlessly since it is still under development. From an earlier post to this list: > I read through the install documents and found nothing anywhere near > describing how to use this CD. > You obviously have grabbed a CD with the new installer (debian-install, d-i for short). It's not yet in a state for general consumption.

There are actually some 2.4 kernels out there for m68k, but they don't boot with recent glibc implementations.

Me too, sorry for the confusion, /etc/modules is just an analogy
("staying with analogies, ...").

Someone else will be better equipped to reply to your specific issue, but I wanted to give you feedback that I have successfully installed 3.0r1 (rev 1) from 7 CD’s (mostly done with the 1st CD) without such difficulties, so you may want to persist If you’ve only recently purchased your r0 set, perhaps they will do a free/low cost upgrade (say, paying for the additional shipping costs) -- David -Original Message- From: Bernard & Jean Dale [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, March 01, 2003 3:58 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: TheBase System Installation Hi Guys, I've tried a number of times to install 3.0r0 from a set of 7 cd's purchased over the internet but before the first installation cd has finished I'm advised that it is unable to install the base system. file:/instmnt/pool/main/a/adduser/adduser_3.47_all.deb was corrupt couldn't download adduser.

All templates (not only the ones from di) can be found from www.debian.org/intl/l10n/po-debconf All of them may desserve attention from a native speaker, I guess.

The different flavours listed below would each have its own "/etc/modules" file; you'd have a medium-priority question whether you want to choose your own modules to override them or use the default for your d-i flavour. The default "/etc/modules" could be arch-specific if there are any modules that are required on some architectures but are not automatically pulled in.
