Bug#262200: debian-installer: d-i downloads unneeded packages

2004-07-30 Thread John Summerfield
John wrote:
Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal
I'm doing a network install via modem.
I've discovered d-i downloading, amongst others, jfs and lvm udebs.
I won't be using either, so this is simply wasted time.
I suggest that downloading and installing optional udebs be deferred
until it's clear they are wanted.
 

atm I'm downloading bits of the 2.4 kernel; the above was with 2.6. I 
note its downloading lots of kernel modules. I booted off a LAN, why not 
justput those modules in the initial ram disk?

AFAIK boot image size is only a problem if booting off floppies.
Or, have a second image that cab be downloaded by tftp. Then when the 
kernel and initrd are loaded by tftp, the installer's bootstrap can get 
a second image. The DHCP server can tell which server to use.

Haha. Now you stumble around the problem that I have predicted years
ago, requesting conditional dependencies in dpkg. Either this or
another apt-get extension implementing basicaly the same feature. IMO
the only good way to manage such things.

Package: spanish-lang-packs
Depends: openoffice.org - openoffice.org-l10n-es, kdebase - kde-i18n-es, ...

Yes.  And that should still work for s390?  Or am I misunderstanding
something here?

BTW: Perhaps it is a good idea to drop the makefile magic, and merge
  the two versions into one file doing runtime detection of s390?  I
  believe such arrangement will be less confusing.

As discussed at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2004/04/msg00634.html ff.,
debootstrap should not be responsible for installing bootloader
packages; this should be handled by the installer.  Since
arcboot-installer is the only installer package present for the mips
arch, I assume this is the package related to dvhtool.  If so, please
update arcboot-installer to call apt-install dvhtool so that this
package can be removed from debootstrap's base list.

Bug#236423: reassigning to hotplug

2004-07-30 Thread Andrew Pollock
reassign 236423 hotplug
tags 236423 - help
thanks

Hi,

I've done some more investigation, and added a placemarker echo line to the
end of /etc/init.d/discover, and the ich2rom modprobe attempt occurs well
and truly after /etc/init.d/discover has finished, so the problem is no
longer discover.

It seems to be hotplug that is causing it, but I can't see directly the
cause.

If I'm reading the modules.dep file correctly, ich2rom depends on some MTD
related modules, but nothing depends on ich2rom, so it's not getting loaded
by way of a dependency.

If I add ich2rom to /etc/hotplug/blacklist, the problem goes away.

I've attached a transcript of two boots, one without ich2rom in
/etc/hotplug/blacklist and one with it in, and you can see the difference.

If I can be of any further assistance, please let me know.

regards

Andrew

Progress meter unbelievable

2004-07-30 Thread John Summerfield
I'm network-installing on an HP Vecra by modem.
Since this is my first (successful so far) install using the Jul 29 Sid 
version, it needed to pull stuff through my modem instead of  of my 
Squid cache.

During most of the time to download the kernel, the progress meter was 
stuck on 87%.

If I'd not been caught on this before, I'd probably have reset the computer.
As it was, I got pretty restless and went investigating to check that it 
was working.

 You mean the progress stop workaround?

Yes.

 This was for the not existent shutdown of the newt interface, which
 is already fixed, not the complete shutdown cdebconf case.

Okay, but it seems the fix doesn't work.  (With sid images from a few
days ago.)

  Modified:
 trunk/packages/rootskel/src/sbin/init
  Log:
  Whoops, forgot the most important bit.
 
 What is the problem with accessing this devices?

Busybox init tries to access those devices over and over again, issueing
an error message every time it fails. Since a VME box doesn't have
anything but a serial console, it fails every time. Therefore, the
interface scrolls away because of the error messages, making d-i quite
useless. I'm not sure whether these error messages will appear when
using a serial console on a kernel which does have support for virtual
consoles (because I didn't test), but since the virtual devices aren't
useful there either, this shouldn't hurt.

There is code in busybox init which tries to access() the devices before
it tries to open() them, and which will avoid opening the devices if the
access() fails. However, this code is only executed once, at startup; if
access() finds the right device file, the error messages will appear.
The only way to make sure access() doesn't find the devices is to remove
them before init is started. I tried different approaches, even
rewriting inittab and sending HUP to init, but unfortunately none of
them was successful.

 Comments/Problems:
 
 The powerpc 2.6 kernel on the 20040724 businesscard CD is missing
 drivers (modules or built-in) for the Mac onboard SCSI bus.
 
 This happens on both my beige G3 minitower and my PowerMac 6500/225.
 
 On the G3 the problem manifests as not being able to see a SCSI Zip 
 drive.
 On the 6500 it can't see any SCSI devices, CD-RW, 4.3 GB hard 
 drive, or Zip.

We probably need the pci id for those scis controllers, and ideally the name
of the module in charge of it.

Bug#238301: After installer has run many debconf questions are not seeded

2004-07-30 Thread Mark Brown
On Thu, Jul 29, 2004 at 02:32:58PM -0400, Joey Hess wrote:

 I don't know of a good way to avoid this at this time; debconf's
 handling of the seen flag for the noninteractive frontend is basically
 correct; debootstrap's use of the noninteractive frontend is correct,
 and there's no way d-i can go back after the fact and mark questions as
 seen.

Perhaps it would help if when changing an option that would change what
you see Debconf should offer to rerun config scripts so that being
prompted for unseen options happens then (when you know why) rather than
randomly later?  It's pretty gross but it's fairly non-invasive and I
guess some people might find it useful.

Are there any error messages from debconf?

If not, there is one thing which may send a SIGKILL before cdebconf

Stage 1 info not carried forward

2004-07-30 Thread John Summerfield
There may be more, not these stand out:
On the boot commandine I specified vga=6
This should be incorporated into the grup config.
For the stage 1 install, I specified a proxy. This should be carried 
forward into the apt config.
atm I'm wondering how to get stuff into it. apt-get says Connect 113 No 
route to host even though I can ping the remote site.

This seems to have got me going:
export http_proxy==http://192.168.9.4:3128/

Bug#262200: debian-installer: d-i downloads unneeded packages

 AFAIK boot image size is only a problem if booting off floppies.

If you want an initrd with everything, use the monolithic initrd; you
can probably manage to netboot it. The netboot image will stay small.

d-i downloads the components you mentioned because, at the moment, it
only gets one chance at downloading components, and therefore downloads
everything it needs to supply e.g. all the partitioning options we want
to make available.

 Or, have a second image that cab be downloaded by tftp. Then when the 
 kernel and initrd are loaded by tftp, the installer's bootstrap can get 
 a second image. The DHCP server can tell which server to use.

Wouldn't it be easier just to have a local mirror of the necessary
udebs?

Comments/Problems:
The installer downloaded stuff I don't need. Such as firewire support. I have no 
firewire.

Why do we have symlinks in / for initrd, kernel?
I really don't like the disk setup.

Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
  and ideas you had during the initial install.

I really don't want to waste time installing exim.

Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/.
Do you want those?


Once you have filled out this report, mail it to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

A firt bit of this info could be put in by the installer: 
cat /proc/cpuinfo
free
cat /etc/network/interfaces # shows how cards got configured

Oh, you could put a to: header at the top and a note on how to mail with sendmail.

I went looking to see if I could find this monolithic initrd. I see a 
tarball in the sid installer direcory I've been using. Is this what you 
mean?

Looking at http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/  I see a link 
to CD imaages. Those are out of the question, I'm not going to try to 
pull those through my modem.

The other boot images link actually points to the port status page. 
While there seem to be pointers to some more images there, there are 
none appropriate for me. I don't now see the link to Joey's dailies.

I'm pulling from Sid because I can get it locally.
d-i downloads the components you mentioned because, at the moment, it
only gets one chance at downloading components, and therefore downloads
everything it needs to supply e.g. all the partitioning options we want

What suddenly makes it hard to download stuff? The network's still 
there. Is this a design issue?

 

Or, have a second image that cab be downloaded by tftp. Then when the 
kernel and initrd are loaded by tftp, the installer's bootstrap can get 
a second image. The DHCP server can tell which server to use.
   

Wouldn't it be easier just to have a local mirror of the necessary

Not for occasional use, and certainly not while you're changing them so 
often, any mirror is soon out of date.

Hopefully I'll have adsl at home again soon and I won't care. Telstra 
said our new home is too far from the exchange, now it's change its 
mind. However, it will be a continuing problem for others.

Re: debian-installer beta-4 for ppc

2004-07-30 Thread Gaudenz Steinlin
Hi Kevin

As mentioned on my site, please send all questions and bug reports about
the installer to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Don't mail me in private
mail about that. See below for my answer:

On Fri, Jul 30, 2004 at 11:23:42AM -0400, Kevin C. Baird wrote:
 I had a little problem with the Beta 4 installer, and thought you might
 want to mention it in your guide. 
Currently a new release of debian-installer is in preparation. You might
want to try the daily build from
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/powerpc/current/

 
 The ~1Mb boot partition for multi-booting needs to be HFS, not
 Apple_Bootstrap, as might seem logical.
It has to be both. Apple_Bootstrap is the partition type and HFS the
filesystem. yaboot-installer should take care of creating a HFS
Filesystem on your Apple_Bootstrap partition.
 
 The debian-installer does not offer formatting in HFS (at least my
 version didn't).
Can you please tell us, what exact error it gave you and where (in which
stage of the installation) you saw this error. 
 
 So I had to use a different distribution's install CD to format in HFS,
 reboot with the Debian install CD, and proceed from there.

I never had to do that. If this is still present in the latest daily
build, it's definitely a bug.

Re: UTF-8 default

2004-07-30 Thread Changwoo Ryu
OTOH, I am curious how well other UTF-8 locales work.

I had changed ko_KR.EUC-KR to ko_KR.UTF-8 in languagechooser months ago,
because UTF-8 locale has some advantages to Korean language users (11172
chars more Hangul chars).  But now I am about to change it back to
ko_KR.EUC-KR.

Many programs still have many UTF-8 releated problems (mostly unapplied
patches) which are hard to resolve before the sarge release.  This
includes the usual Debian programs like dpkg, dselect, apt, aptitude.

There was a bug in partman-newworld triggered by a change in
partman-target. I fixed it a day or two ago, so it should be trickling
into CD builds now.

  Comments/Problems:
 
  The powerpc 2.6 kernel on the 20040724 businesscard CD is missing
  drivers (modules or built-in) for the Mac onboard SCSI bus.
 
  This happens on both my beige G3 minitower and my PowerMac 6500/225.
 
  On the G3 the problem manifests as not being able to see a SCSI Zip

  On the 6500 it can't see any SCSI devices, CD-RW, 4.3 GB hard

  We probably need the pci id for those scis controllers, and 
  ideally the name

 Here is lspci output from the G3 running a 2.4 kernel.

Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

[2004-07-29] Accepted gnutls11 1.0.16-4 (i386 source)

This means that gnutls11 will enter testing in time for the freeze.

**   Please add libgnutls11 and libgcrypt11   **
**  to the list of packages installed by d-i. **

Rationale: cf. http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2004/07/msg00075.html
and followups.

Executive summary: I want to convert as many packages as possible,
including libopencdk8 and exim4, to use gnutls11/gcrypt11 instead of
the obsolete gnutls10/gcrypt7 packages which are unmaintained (and
warned against) by Upstream, for multiple reasons.

As their Debian maintainer, in my opinion the proper label for the
situation we would be in if a nontrivial security problem should appear
in one of these packages is nightmare. It is therefore important
(hence the priority of this bug ;-) that we take all possible steps to
avoid actually using these old packages in Sarge.

Thus, please apply. Thanks.

Memory: 1 GB DDR 400 ECC (2 x 512)
Root Device: SATA HD
Root Size/partition table:  (approx. sizes)

Output of lspci: not able to run

Base System Installation Checklist:

Initial boot worked:[O]

Reboot: [E]
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it

Comments/Problems:

At reboot, all appeared OK, started answering questions and giving passwords, 
then system suddenly rebooted by itself.  After full reboot (by itself) it 
went into the questions again, I got a little further (some choices already 
there and OK, and I got faster ;-), then again rebooted.  This continued for 
several times until I managed to get it to the point where it started 
downloading (ftp) the package list (?), and it gets to about 25% of the 
download completed, then reboots.  This is totally repeatable and consistent.

This same computer/motherboard has a previous install (installer TC1) on it, 
but on an IDE HD put into this system (installed by a previous MB), which has 
been running for weeks rock solid -- it also runs rock solid in this 
compter/mb combination.  This current computer/mb also runs Win2K on a 
partition on the same SATA hd without problems.

It will also do the automatic reboot if I just let this new install sit at the 
welcome screen.  I have timed it and find it takes 52 seconds each time 
from the appearance of this welcome screen until it reboots.  This was done 
several times with exact consistency.  (Some sort of timer involved?)

Otherwise, installer did a good job up to this point.  The previous TC1 
version of the installer ended with error in install of base system each time 
I tried it, hence used the latest cvs to try.  The previous TC1 version 
worked OK on the previous motherboard (which gave me the transplanted hd 
installation).

Don

when installing the desktop task it tries to install many l10n packages like 
mozilla-locale-it or mozilla-locale-el. I saw those two since they fail to install on

I check the description of the desktop task and it reffers only to kde, 
gnome-desktop-environment and the x-windows-system packages.

Lowmem broken on S/390

2004-07-30 Thread Adam Thornton
Using one of today's svn builds, trying to install S/390 in a low memory
configuration (32M) fails: control characters that don't make sense to
the 3270 terminal are spewed across the screen, effectively obscuring
whatever it's trying to tell me, and the installation appears to hang. 
I don't have time today to debug it and figure out what's actually going
on, but getting rid of the terminal handling in the S/390 case and
treating it as a dumb, dumb, dumb serial console for lowmem install
would probably be a good start in order to see where it's getting stuck.

 You meant to file a bug on debootstrap,

*sigh*.  :-/

 and it is too late to make changes to debootstrap for the next d-i
 release, which will probably be the final release for sarge.
 
That would be unfortunate -- I'd _really_ like to get gcrypt7 out of the

libgnutls11 was added to debootstrap a few days ago (10 and 11 are

Bug#262344: debian-installer: Please add gnutls11 and gcrypt11 packages

2004-07-30 Thread Matthias Urlichs
Hi,

Martin Michlmayr:
 
 libgnutls11 was added to debootstrap a few days ago (10 and 11 are
 installed),

Really? It's not even in testing yet, was not built on all arches until
today, and somebody (vorlon*) told me it needs to be in testing before
being eligible for debootstrap.

 but libgcrypt7 is installed instead of 10/11.  Is that a
 major problem, Matthias?

libgcrypt7 has the same Upstream asks us not to distribute this
unsupported and buggy crud in Sarge PLEASE problem that gnutls10 has.

In addition, gnutls11 depends on opencdk8 which still depends on
gcrypt7. Obviously I can't change that before gcrypt11 is installed by
debootstrap.


I'm probably repeating myself here, but IMHO every step we can take
towards the state of no package in Sarge uses gcrypt7 or gnutls10
is a Good Thing.

The changelog from gcrypt7 to 11 does contain a bunch of memory
leakages, a doubly-freed lock of secure memory, and other equally
interesting things.

Thus, we're trading off minor inconvenience now against the possibility
of major problems later.


I'm somewhat sorry that I didn't get around to doing this a week
earlier. I needed time to become familiar with the packages and to
actually understand the nontrivial library interdependencies.  :-/

All that lowmem does is use debconf to ask a question. It may be that
this happens before the s390 terminal is set up properly for debconf to
work or something, but it has to happen before the regular bterm frame
buffer setup on i386.

how to load installation with another kernel

2004-07-30 Thread mebs

I want to install Debian Woody with installer \'boot-floppies\' version 3.0.23 
2002-05-15. I have problems with my SATA sil 3112 rev. 2 and I have only SATA disk and 
on my CD with drivers is supported only 2.4.19 and 2.4.22 kernels (on distro CD set is 
only 2.2.20 and experimental 2.4 and original modules .
I can make my own kernel with sil-SATA patches on other PC, but I need to know, how to 
load it.
I\'d tryed to install my PC as a non-disk station and wanted to make kernel after 
installation, but  I can\'t: When I tryed to configure network, I could configure only 
host name and then it wrotes to me that my NIC isn\'t configured and I should 
configure device driver modules, but I can do it only when the root filesystem is 
already mounted.
Please tell me how to install with kernel 2.4.22 or  where can I find  sil SATA module 
(source).
Thanks.

[2004-07-29] Accepted gnutls11 1.0.16-4 (i386 source)

This means that gnutls11 will enter testing in time for the freeze.

**   Please add libgnutls11 and libgcrypt11   **
**  to the list of packages installed by d-i. **

Rationale: cf. http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2004/07/msg00075.html
and followups.

Executive summary: I want to convert as many packages as possible,
including libopencdk8 and exim4, to use gnutls11/gcrypt11 instead of
the obsolete gnutls10/gcrypt7 packages which are unmaintained (and
warned against) by Upstream, for multiple reasons.

As their Debian maintainer, in my opinion the proper label for the
situation we would be in if a nontrivial security problem should appear
in one of these packages is nightmare. It is therefore important
(hence the priority of this bug ;-) that we take all possible steps to
avoid actually using these old packages in Sarge.

Thus, please apply. Thanks.

The first-stage installer packages are working, and I am currently

doing what I expect: although it works, it chooses the mirror on its own 
and doesn't ask me. I have to test the second-stage installer (what 
happens after the system reboots). But the installer is almost done. 
More tomorrow.

So far, /no/ modifications have been necessary to the debian-installer
software. All of our stuff is in additional packages that hook into the
installation menu system. But the debian-installer could use additional
hooks and I may go back and put them in after this.

Thanks

 How realistic is that? I thought s390 were big iron?

Yeah, but if you're running under VM, your virtual machine can be quite
small.  32M is perfectly reasonable for a machine that is going to, say,
be a router for a virtual network.  Your physical box is going to be a
great deal larger, but your virtual machine doesn't have to be.

 All that lowmem does is use debconf to ask a question. It may be that
 this happens before the s390 terminal is set up properly for debconf to
 work or something, but it has to happen before the regular bterm frame
 buffer setup on i386.

Can the order of is it lowmem?  am I on s390-console? be switched,
then?  That'd probably fix it.  Another alternative would be to fix the
lowmem threshold at 32M for S390 and simply say, you must install in at
least a 32M virtual machine; you can shrink it after install if you
want.

Bug#241106: base system install fails, iso-codes can't be found

Hash: SHA1

Hi,

first and foremost: thank you for your bug report.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=241106

I'm currently processing old installation reports, and since you
reported some problems back in March, I would very much
appreciate it, if you could find time to download and test the
latest[1] cd image and confirm whether you still see the problems
you've mentioned.

If you can confirm they are no longer present, I will close this report.

Much has changed with the installer since March, and it is not unlikely
that these problems may have been dealt with by the Debian Developers 
working on the installer.

Looking forward to hearing from you again. Thank you for your time.

Bug#241212: kernel panic during boot

2004-07-30 Thread Frederik Dannemare
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

first and foremost: thank you for your bug report.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=241212

I'm currently processing old installation reports, and since you
reported some problems back in March, I would very much
appreciate it, if you could find time to test the latest installer[1] 
and confirm whether you still see the problems you've mentioned.

If you can confirm they are no longer present, I will close this report.

Much has changed with the installer since March, and it is not unlikely
that these problems may have been dealt with by the Debian Developers
working on the installer.

Looking forward to hearing from you again. Thank you for your time.

Re: Lowmem broken on S/390

2004-07-30 Thread Joey Hess
Adam Thornton wrote:
 Yeah, but if you're running under VM, your virtual machine can be quite
 small.  32M is perfectly reasonable for a machine that is going to, say,
 be a router for a virtual network.  Your physical box is going to be a
 great deal larger, but your virtual machine doesn't have to be.

  All that lowmem does is use debconf to ask a question. It may be that
  this happens before the s390 terminal is set up properly for debconf to
  work or something, but it has to happen before the regular bterm frame
  buffer setup on i386.
 
 Can the order of is it lowmem?  am I on s390-console? be switched,
 then?  That'd probably fix it.  Another alternative would be to fix the
 lowmem threshold at 32M for S390 and simply say, you must install in at
 least a 32M virtual machine; you can shrink it after install if you
 want.

Running lowmem a little bit later seems like the solution, but it's easy
to break things by this kind of change and this is worth delaying the
release by amother 3 days (minimum) Would you like an errata item? If so
write one up.

Comments/Problems:

The first time, I tried to install to unstable.  This didn't work 
because of some subtle dependency issue, I think, which I could resolve 
from the command line but couldn't restart the install from where it 
left off.

Okay, I was trying to do stuff with unstable, that's obviously a bad 
idea.  Try testing again.  Tried to use the 2.6.3 kernel.  At this 
particular time, the 2.6.3 PCMCIA packages had not migrated to testing 
yet, so this too failed (this was particularly annoying because this is 
a desktop--no PCMCIA at all).  I tried again with something where 
PCMCIA did exist, and that worked great.

BTW, kudos.  The installer scared me the first time because it wasn't 
asking any questions all of a sudden.

Graham

Por medio de la presente  quiero manifestar lo siguiente:

Soy un ciudadano que desea lo mejor para sus hijos. Y en ese animo  estoy  convencido 
que el DEL INSTITUTO POLITECNICO NACIONAL es la mejor opción educativa en todo  los 
niveles que imparte. Y lo digo por que  yo soy orgulloso egresado de ese instituto.
Mis  dos primeras hijas  están inscritas en ya el INSTITUTO POLITECNICO NACIONAL 
Y mi  mayor deseo es que mi tercera hija  también se integre al Politécnico
Mi hija  egresada con promedio de 8.8 del nivel secundario fue rechazada en sus 
primeras opciones que apuntaban todas a planteles del INSTITUTO POLITECNICO NACIONAL 
resultando su puntuación insuficiente cosa que no  deja de  hacerme sospechar algún 
mal manejo en cuanto  a los procedimientos del COMIPEMS para la evaluación de examen 
único.. y  animado por el derecho que tengo de escoger para mis hijos la mejor opción 
educativa y dado las barreras burocraticas puestas para desalentar cualquier 
incorformidad y en  base a lo estipulado en la LEY ORGANICA DEL INSTITUTO POLITECNICO 
NACIONAL

Que señala en su  articulo:

ARTICULO 3.-Son finalidades del Instituto Politécnico Nacional: 
I.-Contribuir a través del proceso educativo a la transformación de la sociedad en un 
sentido democrático y de progreso social, para lograr la justa distribución de los 
bienes materiales y culturales dentro de un régimen de igualdad y libertad.

Y el párrafo:

VII.-Garantizar y ampliar el acceso de estudiantes de escasos recursos a todos los 
servicios de la enseñanza técnica que preste el instituto.

Solicito a usted ayuda para lograr la inscripcion de mi hija en el  INSTITUTO 
POLITECNICO NACIONAL  en el nivel medio superior en el plantel Walter Cross Buchanan

Los datos de mi hija son los siguientes:
Nombre: Maricela Rojo Sandoval
Folio del concurso de ingreso s la educación media superior: 380808952

Comments/Problems:

The FSM module comments that it will taint the kernel, since it has no
license.  As it's derived from the GPL isdn4linux FSM, it too is
presumably GPL, so we might want to fix this.  I'll add it to my open
kernel bug.

Now CTC, IUCV, and qeth have all been tested and work.

Comments/Problems:

The install went ok. There are two points I do want to note however.

First, the windows partition wasn't detected by os-prober. A previous
install with a i386 d-i image did find it. Most likely caused by the
ntfs module being absent.

Second, although I have an AMD cpu d-i installed an Intel Xeon kernel-image.
It does boot and seems to be working good enough to install an k8
kernel-image.
In the logs I found a note that the installer didn't know what the amd64
architecture was and it looked like it just defaulted to the first
non-netboot kernel it could find.

regards,
Thomas

Bug#241516: partial success on Oldworld powermac

2004-07-30 Thread Rick Thomas
Thanks for the reminder.
You can close this bug report.  The ask for floppy driver module 
twice (and not fined it at all bug is still present, but I've 
mentioned it in other bug reports that reference more current CD 
images, so there's no need for this one.

Enjoy!

Hi,
first and foremost: thank you for your bug report.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=241516
I'm currently processing old installation reports, and since you
reported some problems back in April, I would very much
appreciate it, if you could find time to download and test the
latest[1] cd image and confirm whether you still see the problems
you've mentioned.
If you can confirm they are no longer present, I will close this 
report.

Much has changed with the installer since April, and it is not unlikely
that these problems may have been dealt with by the Debian Developers
working on the installer.
Looking forward to hearing from you again. Thank you for your time.

Comments/Problems:

(Please read the following criticism as constructive, not flaming.)

When mounting the partitions, it gave me a warning that /boot and / are
not supported on software RAID.  I proceeded anyway, and it didn't
install GRUB or LILO correctly, and won't boot.

RED HAT HAVE SUPPORTED THIS SINCE RED HAT 7.3, including LVM since 8.0!
  Fedora Core 2 installs perfectly on this system.

Please do something about this - it is a serious problem.  Low end
servers nearly always come with two ATA or SATA drives (i've bought 6 of
them from Dell  Acer in the past year at work).  A two-drive setup with
RAID 1 mirroring is *essential* to support for any production server.
This has saved me so many times when drives have failed - without RAID
1, the system will crash and need to be restored from backup, whereas
with it, people don't even notice a drive has failed.

(BTW, please don't suggest hardware RAID as a solution to this.  The
above system is a home workstation for which i need to be able to swap
drives to other systems if a motherboard or power supply fails.  Linux
software RAID is the most effective way to achieve mirroring portably
across a wide range of hardware.)

I really want to convert to Debian - i am convinced of its value in the
package management area, and i strongly agree with its social contract,
but these sort of limitations are show-stoppers.

Will do the next couple of days.  I'm very lucky to have acess to the
machine again.  I haven't had it since when I filed the report (studying
in England, machine was at home-Belgium).

But now I need some sleep, just returned form holiday!

 Ah, okay. Please open a bug against busybox-cvs.

That should indeed happen, but right now it's worked around; and I don't
think we should go tamper with busybox init so close to a release.

Since base-config 2.37 that should only result in a warning message and
mdetect should still be installed; before that mdetect would not be
installed if read-edid was not available. Any particular problem with
how it works now, besides perhaps being ugly?

Dear boot friends,
I still cannot do the following at first screen:

expert26 hd=7296,255,63

and end up with the right geometry in the partion section.  When I choose,
show c,h,s information, it still gives the info based upon the 16 sectors.

Am I doing something wrong? The help says it will allow this parameter to be
passed.

Introduction

2004-07-30 Thread James Mills
Hi,

This is probably as good a place to start introducing myself eh ? :)

I'm James Mills (aged: 22) of Australia, QLD. I am currently studying
Software Engineering at Griffith University.

I have now used Debian for almost 4 years and run various Debian
Routers, Servers and Desktop machines (only on Intel based systems).

I have experience/skills in the following areas:
* Programming (C, Pascal, ObjPascal, Python, PHP) and quite a few other
  (not frequently used languages).
* Project work (currently involved in a year long university project for
  an outside client)
* Tools: vim, cvs, subversion, sed, grep, etc... Fairly familer with
  most command-line/curses based applications.

That's about it I guess, anything else would be non-related to Debian
GNU/Linux.

I do intend to get involved with the Development of Debian, I guess this
is one of the first steps... What's the process of contributing to the
Debian Installer project ? Are there SubVersion credentials to obtain ?

Look forward to working with you all,

cheers
James
