Bug#248800: Acknowledgement (installer beta 4 installation report (mbr damaged, grub misdetection, cannot boot from rescue disk))
Additional info: I think my guess about MBR damage was a false alarm. (but I've ruined the evidence by this point). When I repartitioned, the "active" boot partition flag was removed from the XP partition. I restored it in the partitioning tool and that allowed me to boot into XP again. Partitioning annoyances: The partitioning tool allows you to get all of your partitions set up before it warns you about errors. Required, but unspecified, properties should probably be in a different color so it is more obvious. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I may mention these, but the thing is that they're not officially released or supported as of yet. I don't want to clutter a manual that's already filled with information, especially for projects that aren't ready for general users yet. In addition, Debian has about a zillion and a half subprojects, and mentioning them all in the installation manual is insane. Further, the manual is highly specific for a linux install, so it's pointless to talk about non-Linux options when we don't really document how to use them. All in all, it may get a mention in passing, but my ultimate goal is to focus the manual tightly, which is the fundamental goal of any editor. - David Nusinow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

When mentioning "space after", I suppose you mean "space *before* the ellipsis", right? There is certainly some typographical rule, in english, for ellipsis. Let's ask debian-l10n-english, if this list is alive:-) In french, ellipsis (called "points de suspension", by the way) are treated just like dots. So, no space before and one space after. If we decide changes in d-i, this needs to be done with translations unfuzzyfication. Which is not completely trivial, by the way...:-) I counted 67 different ellipsis in d-i templates. 30 of these use a space before and 37 no space. Changing this is thus far from trivial Folks, just decide whether there should be a space or not and I'll change this (I'm very good for these boring half-technical/no-coding thingslet's save your valuable time:-)) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

It would be easier to find if the actions available were all shown in a list. Install boot loader and reboot: Grub came up by default. Due to the detection issue with NTFS (listed in the errata) it didn't see my XP partition. I told it not to clobber the MBR. It asked for an alternate place to put the boot loader, and I tried to install it to /dev/hda3. This failed and I saw several error messages. I tried to continue, but was unable to boot off the rescue disk (linux root=/dev/hda3). I don't know if this was due to my unfamiliarity with devfs or if it represents a real issue. (regardless, a less experienced user will not have a great time with it either) As an added bonus, it looks like the MBR was stomped. XP won't boot off the HD any more. I'll attempt to repair the MBR with the XP rescue disk. Wishlist: I have never tried multibooting with XP and linux before. This is probably a very common scenario, so it would be a very good thing for it to be automatically configured (or at least automatically detected with good HOWTO instructions).

Here's an alternate approach that I think makes more sense. Rather than give the users a didactic lecture at the beginning of the manual (which most will never read) instead sprinkle the ideas of freedom throughout the manual. "Debian's commitment to freedom has allowed it to be ported to multiple architectures. You can find out about these at foo." Things like that. This way, we can emphasize to people throughout why things like Freedom are good for them, and why these are the things that make Debian what they are. Now that I think about it, Gentoo's manual is actually written this way as well, emphasizing choice and flexibility throughout. I'll try and write these as I go, and I'll make a run-through once I'm done with the major edits to add any more in. Hopefully it'll be enough that we can safely remove the majority of Chapter 1 and still retain the spirit of what it tries to accomplish. Thoughts? > Please keep these sections in for now.

I looked in the /lib/modules and didn't see it in there.

Use of cursor (underscore versus block)
A user suggested the following: 01:14 < nadim> btw - someone should change the cursor to be something other than underscore (a block or something) not to confuse things when you type underscores - just a suggestion This sounds like a good idea to me. Personally, I use a block cursor all the time. I cannot remember how I set this, though.

Okay, I'm closing this installation report. Whether the tg3 driver will be included in Debian's 2.6 kernel again in the future remains to be seen. In any case, if you want to run 2.6, here is what you can do: - install with 2.4 - boot into the system with 2.4 - install 2.6, download the bcm5700-source package - boot into 2.6, compile the bcm5700 driver and load it. -- Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL

call for help: quik- (oldworld ppc) installer (d-i skills needed, not powerpc)
Hello, as I don't have the time to dig into debian-installer to write a quik-installer by myself, I would like to explain what I think is needed. btw, isn't mkvmlinux (http://packages.debian.org/unstable/devel/mkvmlinuz) suitable to create boot floppies for oldworld ?! (I currently don't have a monitor for my oldworld mac but I'll get one until the weekend.) d-i installer installs quik just fine, and quik (at least for my powermac 4400/200) creates a good quik.conf, except for the refered link to /boot/vmlinux. /boot/vmlinux-2.4.25-powerpc-small exists, but the link to /boot/vmlinux is missing. I think this is a bug in kernel-image-powerpc-small. (a bug which I haven't reported properly by now :( will do this when I got a monitor so I can revalidate if it's still true.) So, what's missing ? After installing the kernel openfirmware has to be set like this otherwise my mac won't boot as I don't have bootX installed. #!/bin/sh nvsetenv boot-device ata/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 nvsetenv input-devicekbd nvsetenv output-device screen nvsetenv boot-file "/boot/vmlinux" # or nvsetenv boot-file "/boot/vmlinux-2.4.25-powerpc-small" # depending on the kernel file/link # # with SCSI the boot-device setting has to be like this: # nvsetenv boot-device scsi/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 (untested) As far as I can tell from reading the manpages and homepage quik cannot boot mac os, so there should be a prompt (on oldworld) asking whether quik should be installed and open firmware set or not. If the answer to that question is no, a warning with a way back should be displayed and proceeded. Now it's time for some ascii art ;-) Since I'm lazy it's more text "art" but that shouldn't matter... quik-installer --- hw-detect: is this an oldworld powerpc ? no -> exit question: should quik be installed to boot linux only ? (if not you will have to use bootX to boot linux from mac os) no -> okay to proceed without installing a bootloader ? yes -> exit no -> call quik (execute /sbin/quik with no arguments, as quik.conf is created with sane values during installation) set open firmware variables according to mac modell and boot drive exit The last "tricky" part for the quik installer as far as I can see is "set open firmware variables according to mac modell and boot drive". The output of my mac 4400 is below and I guess it's easily possible to collect a matrix how boot-device, input-device, output-device, boot-file have to be set with nvsetenv. There are some default settings (http://penguinppc.org/projects/quik/defaults.shtml) and some exceptions (http://penguinppc.org/projects/quik/quirks.shtml ;) but I guess and hope for most or at least many macs it should be possible to find those.

As I reread my mail I realize that os prober is useful and should be used on oldworld as well. This is left as an exercise for the reader ;-) regards, Holger p.s. pearpc (http://pearpc.sf.net) emulates a g3 powerpc on x86 hardware.

debian-installer on PPC and yaboot
Hi, I was installing debian on PPC (well, x86 with http://pearpc.sf.net/) today, using debian-installer. I allowed the installer to partition the "harddisk" automatically. Now, some time after it partitioned, it warned me that it needs a partition for yaboot, allowing to repartition, continue or return to main menu. I ignored that, assuming the autopartitioning had done the right thing. Later, I got a red warning that yaboot did not find the necessary partition. Why wasn't it created automatically? (Also, the hardware detection seems to run rather often... at least three times in my case...) Oh, I was using beta4 of the installer, the 110 MB cd image version.

I'm not sure XB-Subarchitecture will work since you probably have to list _all_ supported subarches, otherwise it will think they are not supported. I could be wrong, though.

FYI: new package for creating ppc OpenFirmware bootable kernel images
Seen in Debian Weekly News: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/devel/mkvmlinuz This little program takes a PowerPC Linux kernel as an uncompressed ELF image file (usually called vmlinux or somesuch) and adds boot code and possibly a ramdisk to create a compressed kernel image that can be booted directly from Open Firmware, thus eliminating the need for a second-stage bootloader such as yaboot or quik. This is especially useful on PowerPC sub-architectures that do not have a bootloader at all, but may also come handy for install kernels, netboot systems and the like. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 780-492-7660 Computing and Network Services University of Alberta -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Comments/Problems:
Overall great. Problem with DHCP:
On a clean boot I don't have any DNS servers configured in
/etc/resolv.conf. To my knowledge, there is nothing unusual about my
situation.
I installed "testing" when given the choice, and just stuck with
defaults as far as I can remember. This means I have the package
dhcp-client installed, not dhcp3-client.
ifup -a gets run by /etc/init.d/networking, and this fails to properly
configure the dns servers. It does however retrieve the dns server
information and store it in /var/run/dhclient.eth0.leases:
lease {
interface "eth0";
fixed-address 154.20.103.190;
option subnet-mask 255.255.192.0;

Patch to add libnss-files-udeb
tags 247430 patch
thanks
Here's a patch for this bug against CVS HEAD. You'll need to run
'debian/rules debian/control' after applying it, of course. It creates
libnss-files-udeb, makes the various libc-udeb packages depend on
libnss-dns-udeb and libnss-files-udeb, and drops libnss_dns.so and
libnss_files.so from libc-udeb.

Yes, but we can start sorting it out now, so that it can be commited just
after sarge release.

I agree, it will probably have to be something like this.
Also missing from the patch was a priority for fsck. I assume the
fsck package would then become the required package, instead of
e2fsprogs.

I agree --- unless if various GR's fail and Sarge gets delayed for
year, at which point presumably we will unfreeze the base system
dependencies.

I just made a change to partman-md in the init section.

The dependency structure of the base system has been frozen since 29
March so that d-i images stop getting repeatedly broken by
rearrangements like this one. It's too late to do this for sarge.

Essential packages generally need to use Pre-Depends, since they need to
work even when unconfigured.
> Package: e2fsprogs
> -Essential: yes
> Pre-Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}

> +Depends: fsck

This allows the new e2fsprogs to be unpacked before fsck, at which point
/sbin/fsck will disappear until fsck is unpacked, which is a
showstopper. It's very hard to solve this and avoid breaking fresh
installs at the same time.
I think we'll need something like:
Package: fsck
Essential: yes
Pre-Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, libblkid1 (= ${Source-Version}), libuuid1 (=
${Source-Version})
Depends: e2fsprogs | fsck-backend
Replaces: e2fsprogs (<< first-split-version)
Package: e2fsprogs
Pre-Depends: fsck
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
This guarantees that fsck remains available during upgrades no matter
what, and ensures that fresh installs are at least possible. This isn't
optimal, but, given that you have to install one of fsck and a
fsck-backend after the other, I don't see a better possibility.
Aside from the base dependency freeze, I think the complexity of this
change alone marks it as post-sarge.

The next screen, the keyboard language (keymap) contains several small misspellings (let me know if this needs to be reported differently) 1. In the header the german words "Wählen" and "für" are displayed incorrectly, maybe because the german umlauts are not interpreted correctly at this stage (later during the installation process they are displayed correctly). 2. The language choice for the keyboard for Finland is ""Finnisch" and not "Finish". 3. The translation for no deadkeys (here "keine Tottasten) doesn't exist in German. 4. All languages should start with a capital letter as this looks much more concise Once the keyboard language is selected (here: deutsch (keine Tottasten)) the hardwarerecognition is started and the debian installer components are loaded. During the loading of the debian installer components the word "Retrieving" is directly translated to "Empfange" which does not fit. The word "Lade" for example might be a better choice. Ok now back to the technical description. The PCMCIA card recognitation seems to have a problem in the beta 4 of the installer. If a network card is inserted when booting from the installer CD, the pcmcia network card will not be detected and can also not even be added correctly afterwards. I found out that the pcmcia network cards can however be used correctly if they are plugged in after the automatic recognition has run. If the card is plugged in then and the right modul selected it works. I'm not sure if this issue exists for all pcmcia network cards, but I could verify for a 3Com 3C589D (3c589_cs) and also for a Xircom REM56G-100 (xirc2ps_cs). Install Boat Loader: The boot loader GRUB installs but doesn't recognize the NTFS partition (Windows 2000) that exists as first partition on the harddisk (/dev/hda1). As I saw, this has already been reported. Mount partitions: Mounting with option read only of the installed NTFS partition worked fine. Thanks for the great work so far and let me know if you need further information. Kind regards Thorsten Schäfer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I'm attaching a patch that splits out fsck and adds the proper relationships
in debian/control.

applicable; and take the appropiate measures in d-i, if any.

The Critical bug "#247853: Discover loads i810-tco which reboots computer after 1m" is not tagged as d-i bug reports nor is it listed in the "errata page". It really should be listed in both places, as it bites hard if you tries a linux26 installation using d-i beta4 on intel chipsets. / Anders -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hindi, or other Indian languages, are among the most needed languages. Until now, I got some contacts from Rajesh Menon who offered help in working on hi translations.

Safir is the Bosnian translator of d-i I imagine that he went through the threads which happened a few weeks ago when we were talking about the Serbian translation. There were some considerations about the languages in the countries which were previously part of the former Yougoslavia. Some explanations have been given by the Serbian translator, I have added some comments and so on Some of these may have been wrong, either completely wrong...or wrong with the point of view of Bosnian peopleor wrong because I or someone else misunderstood others explanations (remember that we are nearly all non English native speakers). Nevertheless, the current Bosnian translation of d-i will not be touched and NOT be called anything else than Bosnian. Safir, you can certainly be assured of thisso you can certainly continue to improve it..:-) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

You need a newer version of base-installer (0.80 or better). This is in unstable, but not in testing (except sparc). Use the sid_d-i build rather than sarge_d-i for now.

Bug#248099: debian-installer: failed to find kernel-image on i386
Package: debian-installer Version: Sarge jigdo i386 image 1, installer files dated 2004-05-09 Severity: grave This seems the very same problem as #248099, but on a K7 instead of a PowerPC. The installer reports it cannot find any kernel in APT sources, both starting with 2.4 and 2.6 kernels. The jigdo image checksum is OK of course (I've also double-checked it by reusing jigdo using the burned CD as source). Files reported to be missing do exist in the CD. These are the last lines of the "messages" debug file: --CUT-- Setting up tasksel (1.50) ... Setting up console-tools (0.2.3dbs-52) ... Setting up base-config (2.20) ... umount: /target/dev/pts: No such file or directory umount: /target/dev/shm: No such file or directory umount: /target/proc/bus/usb: Invalid argument Err file: sarge/main Packages File not found Ign file: sarge/main Release Failed to fetch file:///cdrom/dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz File not found Reading Package Lists...

Now that you have a working system with the 2.4 kernel, can you additionally install the 2.6.5 package from testing, configure your system to boot both 2.4 and 2.6.5, boot 2.6 and see if this is still there? (If it doesn't work, you can simply reboot and go back to 2.4.) I've done it yesterday and the network work perfectly with the 2.6.5 kernel. -- berti(hihi)
