Bug#262200: debian-installer: d-i downloads unneeded packages
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. -- Cheers John -- spambait [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tourist pics http://portgeographe.environmentaldisasters.cds.merseine.nu/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

[Bastian Blank] The Makefile decides to install different versions of this file. 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?

Bug#236423: reassigning to hotplug
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 Linux version 2.6.7-1-686 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 3.3.4 (Debian 1:3.3.4-2)) #1 Thu Jul 8 05:36:53 EDT 2004 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: BIOS-e820: - 0009fc00 (usable) BIOS-e820: 0009fc00 - 000a (reserved) BIOS-e820: 000f - 0010 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 0010 - 0fff (usable) BIOS-e820: 0fff - 0fff8000 (ACPI data) BIOS-e820: 0fff8000 - 1000 (ACPI NVS) BIOS-e820: ffbc0100 - ffbc0101 (reserved) BIOS-e820: fff0 - 0001 (reserved) 0MB HIGHMEM available. 255MB LOWMEM available. found SMP MP-table at 000fb6d0 On node 0 totalpages: 65520 DMA zone: 4096 pages, LIFO batch:1 Normal zone: 61424 pages, LIFO batch:14 HighMem zone: 0 pages, LIFO batch:1 DMI 2.3 present.

Progress meter unbelievable
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.

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. -- EARTH smog | bricks AIR -- mud -- FIRE soda water | tequila WATER -- with thanks to fortune -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#238301: After installer has run many debconf questions are not seeded
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. -- You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

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.

Re: debian-installer beta-4 for ppc
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.

Re: UTF-8 default
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. -- Changwoo Ryu [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: =?UTF-8?Q?=EB=94=94=EC=A7=80?= =?UTF-8?Q?=ED=83=88?= =?UTF-8?Q?_=EC=84=9C=EB=AA=85?= =?UTF-8?Q?=EB=90=9C?= =?UTF-8?Q?_=EB=A9=94=EC=84=B8?= =?UTF-8?Q?=EC=A7=80?= =?UTF-8?Q?_=EB=B6=80=EB=B6=84=EC=9E=85=EB=8B=88?= =?UTF-8?Q?=EB=8B=A4?=

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).

Bug#262344: debian-installer: Please add gnutls11 and gcrypt11 packages
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. :-/ -- Matthias Urlichs | {M:U} IT Design @ m-u-it.de | [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: Digital signature

how to load installation with another kernel
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).

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.

Re: Lowmem broken on S/390
On Fri, 2004-07-30 at 14:43, Joey Hess wrote: Adam Thornton wrote: Using one of today's svn builds, trying to install S/390 in a low memory configuration (32M) fails 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#262344: debian-installer: Please add gnutls11 and gcrypt11 packages
* Matthias Urlichs [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2004-07-30 21:26]: 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. Hmm, that might be a problem. :/ 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. BTW, while gnutls11 is installed, the new gcrypt on which it depends is not, so deboostrap is currently broken, it seems. -- Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

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.

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 -- Human civilization is not something achieved against nature; it is rather the outcome of the working of the innate qualities of man. -- Ludwig von Mises --- Received: (at 261371-done) by bugs.debian.org; 30 Jul 2004 21:36:33 + From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jul 30 14:36:33 2004 Return-path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: from kitenet.net [64.62.161.42] (postfix) by spohr.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1Bqf3J-dJ-00; Fri, 30 Jul 2004 14:36:33 -0700 Received: from dragon.kitenet.net (unknown [66.168.94.144]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (Client CN Joey Hess, Issuer Joey Hess (verified OK)) by kitenet.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7552A18536 for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Fri, 30 Jul 2004 21:28:52 + (GMT) Received: by dragon.kitenet.net (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 5670882CEA; Fri, 30 Jul 2004 17:29:15 -0400 (EDT) Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2004 17:29:14 -0400 From: Joey Hess [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: closing Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol=application/pgp-signature; boundary=mP3DRpeJDSE+ciuQ Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.6+20040722i Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin

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.

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. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Introduction
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 -- -ShortCircuit Services -WIKI: http://wiki.shortcircuit.net.au -IRC: http://wiki.shortcircuit.net.au/IRC/ -IRC: (/server shortcircuit.net.au) - -Problems are Solved by Method - -Team123 - We deliver -URL: http://team123.shortcircuit.net.au -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
