Bug#283233: base-config: Adding the first user to the plugdev group
Hi! Josselin Mouette [2004-11-27 13:52 +0100]: Package: base-config Severity: wishlist Using the recently-introduced pmount, it is possible for a user to mount USB volumes without any tweaking in the fstab. However, it needs the user to be added to the plugdev group. Could you do it like it is already the case for cdrom, audio and video? Seconded :-) It should be noted that the first user should be put into group 'camera' as well. I don't know whether this is possible at installation time; the group probably needs to be also created at that time. Sure. We do this in Ubuntu for quite some time now without any problems. Joey, do you think this change can go into Sarge? It's a very unintrusive one.

Description of problem on my case in debian installer: I have a i386 box with 2 identical SATA disc. I'd like to make a RAID1 for / and swap partitions. I've created Raid partitions and then created / and swap partitions on raid partition. But: debian-installer allows me to prepare such configurations, that are later not possible to be applyed to disc: - I've created ONE raid partition on first disc (whole disc), and another ONE raid partition on second disc (whole disc). Then I've created a raid1 device (using both raid partitions) As I understand now, I can create only one real partition on one raid device. But debian installer let me create two (or betters said: created herself) two partitions (/ and swap) on one raid device. - I've later changed the settins, but I could not find a combination of raid discs, partitions created on them and boot flags of partitions, that would crate a working raid. It either reported an error after trying to create the partitions or I could not boot the computer from created partitions. I do not know exactly how the RAID partitions should be created, but: - the installer should have at least an extensive help on this topisc, - the installer should only allow to create working RAID partitons, - the installer should not allow to specify configurations, which can not be created, or would be non working.

True, but most there are a lot of screens with many options there and it isn't entirely obvious where that one is found- I couldn't find it and I learnt about the 'linux26' command through reading some docs on the web. Most people will prefer the 2.6 kernel and this will be a highly common boot option, the only one most people need to know so i still think it would be good to highlight that one at boot. Did you by any chance select a mountpoint for your windows partition the second time? In that case, this is a known problem (see bug #251794).

Bug#283050: IP22 MIPS Linux Install Failure
* Philippe Vachon [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2004-11-26 00:02]: 1. The version of fdisk that comes with Debian Installer REALLY sucks... namely because I had to figure out on paper my partition table, rather We'll move to something else after sarge. 2. After installing the base system, and writing with ARCS to the PROM the values I was told to by d-i after the installation of the base system was complete, the system failed completely to boot -- it would load the ARCS kernel loader, which then proceeded to tell me it couldn't find the Kernel. Can you put a kernel on your TFTP server and then boot into the Debian system? Can you then investigate and see whether the kernel is really there. i.e. look into /boot and also take a look at /etc/arcboot.conf -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#283391: Didn't detect Genius MF3000 ethernet card
I've done a bit more testing. The problem only occurs if I boot using 'linux26', if I boot using 'linux' the network detection and configuration work fine. Looking in the syslog for 2.4 I see Well, maybe the driver to be loaded is different in 2.6 and 2.4. Is that what the pci-26.lst file is for, Joshua ?

The cons is that, clearly, each time you upload the kernel it will build everywhere, even if the change is unrelated to the arch you are building on. On the otherside, you might want to think to security or bug fixes that needs to spread across all archs. One upload the fix is automagically redistributed everywhere. From the source to the last udeb. As it is now, someone needs to upload kernel-source, someone needs to wait for it on the mirror and upload kernel-image and upload kernel-image.

This also means that the code that removes the installer user is not installed and of course cannot be run during base-config.

Re: partman problems (sparc and elsewhere)
On Thu, Nov 25, 2004 at 01:00:51PM -0800, Blars Blarson wrote: Looking into the partman bugs reports, I think all of these bugs are symptoms of the same partman bug: In my opinion most of these bugs are different. My summery is that partman has information in memory on what the desired partitioning is, and information on disk. It can write information to the disk without updating all of its in memory information to match, and gets itself into an inconsistant state. It is possible that libparted does this when it uses sun disk labels (but I don't know the internals of libparted). Partman doesn't have its information on the disk. However there is the following bug in partman: sometimes it considers the partition tables in its own data structures unchanged and misses to write them to the disk. The result is that when the type of some partition doesn't correspond to the file system in it partman may miss to correct the partition type and latter grub fails. Choosing another menu item that fails totaly can get it back to a consistant state. Choosing a menu item that partly succeds (such as lvm) can make things even crazier.

Bug#283377: Should not copy installer account to /target if network-console-config not installed
tags 283377 + pending thanks The attached patch (untested) should fix this issue. Collin Watson also advised me on #d-boot that installation of network-console-config will currently fail on full CD's as the CD has already been unmounted when the script is run. This has been fixed by moving the call to apt-install to the postinst. The patch has already been committed to SVN for HEAD. I think this patch should also be considered for the Sarge branch.

This suggests some typo in the firmware variables. The following is needed: SystemPartition=scsi(0)disk(scsi-id)rdisk(0)partition(8) - Test: Typing ls in the firmware lists arcboot OSLoadPartition=scsi(0)disk(scsi-id)rdisk(0)partition(partition-number - 1) OSLoader=arcboot - Test: Typing boot in the firmware tries the boot _without_ showing an error message about unrecognized file system Caveat: ARCS partition numbering is zero-based, so ???partition(1) is /dev/sd?2 OSLoadFilename=Linux - Test: This should load the kernel. Caveat: The arcboot label is case-sensitive. E.g. linux as label will fail. Can you put a kernel on your TFTP server and then boot into the Debian system? Can you then investigate and see whether the kernel is really there. i.e. look into /boot and also take a look at /etc/arcboot.conf Booting the install image with: bootp(): append=single root=/dev/sd?? should work also.

Hi Fabio, Thanks for feeding changes back to d-k. No one else in Ubuntu has bothered to do that thus far... On Mon, 29 Nov 2004 08:35:03 +0100, Fabio Massimo Di Nitto wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi everybody, ~right last week i have been asked to merge the linux-kernel-di-* packages directly into the kernel-source (that in Ubuntu we call linux-source) so that all the different binary packages are built from one and only one source. Basically killing kernel-image packages (that was done a few months back) and now linux-kernel-di-* Killing kernel-image packages is something that we've been planning post-sarge (if I hadn't gotten caught up doing other stuff, I would've started w/ 2.6.9 last week). The goals are: a) Kill all the separate image packages, so that instead of requiring a psuedo-package in the BTS (w/ no versioning support), we can view all bugs for a specific kernel version (since they all come from the same source package). b) Get archs autobuilt, so that they don't lag behind. They may not boot, but they'll at least compile. Given the way that kernel development upstream is happening, the development process will look something like this: 1) release k-s 2.6.10-1, upload i386 images, 2) autobuilders for all other archs attempt to build arch-specific images, 3) many fail; the kernel is therefore kept out of etch, 4) k-s 2.6.10-3 is uploaded (after -2 fixes some build failures as well), 5) autobuilders successfully build for all archs, 6) testers report bugs for archs that don't work; obviously, an arch-specific RC bug will keep a kernel out of etch, 7) after developers fix arch-specific bugs, k-s 2.6.10-4 is uploaded and autobuilt, 8) k-s 2.6.10, now that it builds and runs on all (used) archs, flows into etch. Of course, there's a good chance there may be some arch breakage on a rarely used arch, and the package gets into etch w/ the breakage; however, I'd rather see that than the arch sticking w/ a kernel version that's a year old, has known security holes, but boots. 3) Simplify packaging. Dump the kernel-tree-X crap, etc. The cons of this are that one will no longer be allowed to build against an older, known-working k-s. Kernel config handling will be unified (probably something similar to what the powerpc images do), so that there's not a bunch of out-of-sync config options between different archs. I would eventually like to use a cdbs-like build system for the kernel stuff, but that's highly dependent upon cdbs gaining some necessary functionality that it doesn't currently have (and allowing this to be implemented in a clean fashion). The resulting diff of the merge (based on our linux-source) can be found here: http://people.ubuntulinux.org/patches/kernel_udebs_from_kernel_source.diff Patch saved on my hard drive for posterity. :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

We need to see about adding 2.6 support to the larger isos, but I don't know if the hppa 2.6 support is good enough yet to replace 2.4 with it It doesn't seem to be, yet. and AFAIK palo only supports loading one (well 32 and 64 bit versions..) kernel from CD. If there's a way to make palo give a menu to choose which one to boot, we could do that. Correct. I do not believe there is any provision for offering more than one kernel when booting from CD. palo does a raw search through the ISO fs for the kernel file which matches the one specified with '-k' when the image was built. You'll find that modifying the boot command line to use a different kernel has no effect, even if it is included on the iso.

Bug#283521: no pointer to manual in syslinux screens
Hi, The help screens point to http://www.debian.org/ for the manual. Since there is a prominent link to the manual on the navigation bar on the front page, I think this is sufficient. Of course it won't be the sarge manual until sarge is released. I dont think it's sufficient :-) Be nice to users, please point them to http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/installmanual - which even might be to confusing to some anyway ;-) I don't think a link in the 20th row in a crowded navigation bar is as prominent as it could be: direct. Dealing with computers in general for some people holds many obstactles, we shouldn't unnecessarily add more. regards, Holger -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: repository branched for sarge
Hi, So, the best, IMHO, is currently considering that the sarge branch is still under a deep string freeze. I'd go further and consider getting all patches for the sarge branch tested in trunk and/or reviewed by this list before committing them there. Sorry: I assume this also counts for translations of the manual?

Re: creating kernel udebs from kernel-source
Andres Salomon wrote: [snip] b) Get archs autobuilt, so that they don't lag behind. They may not boot, but they'll at least compile. Given the way that kernel development upstream is happening, the development process will look something like this: 1) release k-s 2.6.10-1, upload i386 images, 2) autobuilders for all other archs attempt to build arch-specific images, 3) many fail; the kernel is therefore kept out of etch, 4) k-s 2.6.10-3 is uploaded (after -2 fixes some build failures as well), 5) autobuilders successfully build for all archs, 6) testers report bugs for archs that don't work; obviously, an arch-specific RC bug will keep a kernel out of etch, 7) after developers fix arch-specific bugs, k-s 2.6.10-4 is uploaded and autobuilt, 8) k-s 2.6.10, now that it builds and runs on all (used) archs, flows into etch. Of course, there's a good chance there may be some arch breakage on a rarely used arch, and the package gets into etch w/ the breakage; however, I'd rather see that than the arch sticking w/ a kernel version that's a year old, has known security holes, but boots. This Hooray, it compiles! approach is unlikly to ever produce an useful kenrel for architectures not maintained in mainline. 3) Simplify packaging. Dump the kernel-tree-X crap, etc. The cons of this are that one will no longer be allowed to build against an older, known-working k-s. Which means those architectures will still need a source package they can build-depend on, generated from the -image source. This is a minimal workload reduction for the kernel team but an increase for the security team. Thiemo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

My summery is that partman has information in memory on what the desired partitioning is, and information on disk. It can write information to the disk without updating all of its in memory information to match, and gets itself into an inconsistant state. It is possible that libparted does this when it uses sun disk labels (but I don't know the internals of libparted). Partman doesn't have its information on the disk. However there is the following bug in partman: sometimes it considers the partition tables in its own data structures unchanged and misses to write them to the disk. The result is that when the type of some partition doesn't correspond to the file system in it partman may miss to correct the partition type and latter grub fails. BTW, i also believe that this is a problem on pegasos. Doing a ped_partition_set_system each time we put a filesystem on a partition may be the thing to do, do you do this ? Example, on pegasos, i was going to install an ext3 filesystem in the old swap partition. The old partition was marked as type swap, and this was not changed, and thus the ext3 filesystem was not readable from the firmware, which thought it contained swap, and since there are no driver for this, it failed. Not sure if it is a general failure to do a ped_partition_set_system, or a instance of the bug you mention above ?

Re: creating kernel udebs from kernel-source
Andres Salomon wrote: [snip] This Hooray, it compiles! approach is unlikly to ever produce an useful kenrel for architectures not maintained in mainline. I fail to see why not. How is it we can keep patches in arch-specific k-i packages, but keeping them in k-s won't work? As already mentioned on IRC, I misunderstood some parts of your mail an thought the idea was to abolish the kernel-source Package as well. You mentioned the fact that mips upstream is essentially a fork of Linus' tree; I suspect this is the case simply because they wait so long before resynchs, The situation improved significantly for 2.6, however, there's still need to mips-specific patches not in mainline. and when they do attempt to synch, they send large patches that Linus rejects. Rather: They send large patches and Linus accepts. :-) If we're going to be maintaining and dealing w/ these patches anyway, why not just feed split out changes to Linus? The easy ones are probably already sent, the hard ones have usually a reason why they shouldn't go upstream as is. The stuff in the middle needs some polishing like updates to more modern kernel interfaces. Of course, I don't oppose to send patches to kernel.org from k-s, but I think it is more efficient to do this between linux-mips.org and kernel.org. It makes everyone's life easier; for the next kernel revision, the patch has been merged; mips upstream has less of a diff between Linus' tree and theirs; and Linus and co. aren't being bombarded w/ 2 meg patches. 2 MB is the overall diff size, sending it as a single patch would clearly be insane. :-) As I mentioned above, that's just a goal to work towards. It may work, it may not. However, a bunch of k-i packages consist mostly of debian packaging and config files. There's no reason to have those as separate. For some architectures it clearly makes sense to drop those packages. I just want to keep them for architectures where they are more useful.

On this very recent machine, the only problem that showed up was an insufficiently informative error message. It's a pleasure to move on to some of the final cleanup items. 1. Out of the 5 installation passes I performed, two of them timed out during base system install, apparently because the mirror was slow to respond. The resulting error messages read: DEBOOTSTRAP ERROR and COULDN'T DOWNLOAD EXIM4. The error messages on console 3 and the log file just repeatedly cycled through: No matching physical volumes found No volume groups found Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Obviously, this was no help in figuring out what the problem was, or what to do next. The second time it happened, I figured out that the correct thing to do was go back and start the base install again. Sure enough, it resumed where it left off, and ran to completion. (In the past, I've seen Loading components of the Debian Installer time out a lot and need to be restarted. That didn't happen during this test session. 2. I created both ext3 and Reiser file systems on different runs. Both worked without problems. 3. The Radeon bug another user and I reported with RC1, where the text mode display would jump left and push column 1 off-screen halfway through the first phase of install, didn't show up this time. RECOMMENDATION: Supplement the DEBOOTSTRAP ERROR message with something like Go back, and start the Base System install again, or select a faster mirror.

Bug#283595: pure64 2GB HD install
I had problems installing kernel 2.6 on Seagate ST380013AS SATA drive. I put old 2GB Seagate ATA HD in the box, retaining SATA drive but setting BIOS to boot off old ATA drive. Have you tried modprobe sata_sil in console 2 when you're notified the no hard disk found ? I'm not a specialist of these hardware stuff but this seems to be the driver to use with your SATA controller, according to discover1-data. You can do this undestructively so you can test again even on the installed machine.
