Bug#391664: partman-auto-crypto: Some questions and issues

Ok I also wonder what that loop actually does. Why is it needed to loop over $DEVICES when you have been passed a specific $dev? Would it be possible that some other disk already has a method "crypto" (from a previous installation maybe) and thus is used by mistake? The loop is there because it needs to look not for the $dev device but the virtual device-mapper device which has been created ontop of the device pointed to by $dev after the crypto_setup step. It should be a bit smarter and make sure the virtual-$dev <-> $dev mapping is correct thoughand it should probably exit the loop once that is established...but I don't think the loop can be removed... (2) Choosing guided partitioning again after setting up crypto and choosing regular LVM fails because encrypted partition is in use... (3) Choosing guided partitioning again after setting up crypto and choosing regular partitioning works, but encrypted volume and LVM stuff is still shown... For both (2) and (3) we should just make sure things are cleaned up properly as we are going to scratch the disk anyway. How can an encrypted partition be "released"? "dmsetup remove " or "cryptsetup remove ". This is a generic problem with partman-crypto as well. The best thing to do would probably be to extend the checks that are already done for LVM-exists-on-device and extend them to also check (+ warn) and wipe crypto on a device which is going to be auto-partitioned. I'll try to find time this week to look into it. -- David Härdeman

Bug#385629: debian-installer: Encrypted filesystem setup and swap
Hi, I am playing around with the installer and I believe I have hit this problem. If I select automatically set up LVM and crypto I get a good setup, but if I then go to Configure encrypted partitions I am told I can't as swap is not encrypted. The swap is an LVM partition on a dm-crypt device, so I think partman-crypto's detection of encrypted swap in this case is not working. I believe partman-auto-crypto was loaded. Thanks for your work, James [Also it seems that I cannot delete an encrypted partition, even if I get to free space on it, it still says "In use for ...", is there a way to do this? It was annoying having to restart the installer every time I wanted to try something different. Could you point me to the apprpriate package for this, I'm not sure it is partman-crypto] -- James Westby --GPG Key ID: B577FE13-- http://jameswestby.net/ seccure key - (3+)k7|M*edCX/.A:n*N!>|&7U.L#9E)Tu)T0>AM - secp256r1/nistp256 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

That's not a typo. "Volume" is just English and not related to Volumen (which might be a translation as i notice now the first time). I even hesitated to translate "logical" and "physical". "Logical Volume" is really common in German texts, "logisches Volume" hopefully too. I always think about "loudness" (Lautstärke) when I hear "volume" and I'm sure many other people also see no relation of volume and Volumen (even if it is valid). Nevertheless I added a few real typos in the installer. If you find these you will get a cooky from me :-) Jens --- End Message ---
Bug#392042: software RAID volumes can not be partitioned
Package: debian-installer Severity: important debian installer lets one setup a raid fairly easily. however, it gives no indication that one can't partition an array, but one has to partition the base disks and create the arrays out of the partitions. In fact, the installer will go ahead an partition the disk for if you tell it to do it automatically. took me way too long to figure out what the problem was, as I'm used to using 3ware cards where they just deal with whole disks, and I'd partition the array itself. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (650, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Please contact the kernel team for this. It is not an installer team decision. Cheers, FJP The only support that should be needed in the installer is the driver being available during install-boot and for inclusion in the initial boot images made during install. It basically should operate just as the 3ware RAID drivers do (which I installed onto just fine with Etch B3); that is, I do not think any special detection, etc. is needed. It's a hardware RAID board and, in general, makes the RAID array just looks like one big disk to the installer ( or more if you built the array that way).

The preferred method to install individual packages from a script (e.g. preseed late) is to use apt-install. It is listed in this README file (sarge version): http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/d-i/tags/packages/debian-installer-utils/1.08/README?op=file&rev=0&sc=0 Note that this is run with the noninteractive debconf frontend, so you won't be able to do any configuration.

That is not really an option. The 2.6.18 kernel is scheduled for release with Etch. What needs to happen is that the bug is fixed in 2.6.18 in Debian before the release. For that it would be good if an RC bug was filed against linux-2.6.

However, I understand that Etch will use 2.6.16 or 2.6.18 and thus the driver will not be included. This may be one of the best Raid 6 solutions on the market at this time and it does seem to work well with Debian. Another Areca customer made a Debian install disk based on Sarge, which I have been using. It works well, but does not have the driver support for other common devices like sound that are in the newer kernels. The install disk used the 2.6.8 kernel. I have used the manufacturer's provided drivers on kernels 2.6.8, 2.6.16 (Debian version), and 2.6.18 (kernel.org version). I used the drivers from the git Tree and personally installed the drivers in 2.6.16 deb source and 2.6.18 kernel.org source so that I could configure the drivers though make menuconfig. The drivers are installed as modules. Both kernels seem to work fine. Note, that the purpose of this system configuration is to be 100% RAID 6 where in such a case it would be very convenient to have RAID 6 support at time of installation. Test data so far seems to support that this may very well be possible, at least for the test hardware set under use. Some Functional Test Results Follow: The following outlines one of the experiments that I performed. Keep in mind that the only hard drives on the system is the RAID 6 set. I configured 4 drives using the Raid's boot bios software. Once the RAID 6 was configured, Debian was installed from CD using a modified Sarge installation disk. During the actual install, while loading the base system I randomly pulled one of the 4 drives from the system, then in a few minutes pulled another. The alarms sounded, but the install proceeded. After a few minutes I put the drives back into the system. Keep in mind that I am proceeding with the installation without any delay while the two drives are pulled out and then put back into the system. Once the drives re-synced, I did it again and again with differing drives. I then: 1) Added the driver to the stock 2.6.18 kernel from kernel.org, 2) With the 2.6.18 kernel loaded, did a distribution upgrade from Sarge to Etch (Testing). 3) Then modified the Debian 2.6.16 kernel source and installed. All of this work was done on the test system with the RAID 6 set as the only hard drive. I did numerous demonstrations allowing any that came by to randomly select one or two drives and pull them out at will. The system is still in use and under test. Results are good. I asked on the kernel list, some time ago, before the last stable release, if the Areca driver could be included before the stable release so as to be installable, etc.. The response at the time was if it was included in an upstream kernel it might be able to be backported and included in the stable release kernel. At the time the Areca driver had not been accepted (I thought it had but it had not). Now it has been (included in 2.6.19 change log). So it might be possible to get it included in the 2.6.18 for the next stable. I, for one, would very much welcome this. I am not a kernel beater but I would be willing to do what I can to help test/whatever to see this happen.

I set up a sid VM and checked out a copy of the d-i build environment as described in [2] I then created a patch ([3]) based on the existing g-i build environments and tried to compile which took me to the first problem: The following packages have unmet dependencies: rootskel-gtk: Depends: mouse-modules but it is not installable E: Broken packages make[2]: *** [stamps/get_udebs-rpc_gtk-miniiso-stamp] Error 100 make[1]: *** [_build] Error 2 make: *** [build_rpc_gtk-miniiso] Error 2 I then rebuilt a version of rootskel-gtk removing the dependency on mouse-modules (this means there'll be a problem with missing modules...) and copied it in localudebs. Compilation went fine to the end producing initrd.gz vmlinuz-2.6.17-2-rpc Before proceeding with testing the above files, I tried to start the frontend in a chroot and noticed that I got a black screen; asked for some help ([5]) on the directfb ML and, as suggested by Denis, I tried to hack the directfb-0.9.25.1 package (using [6]) and finally managed to see something [7] As suggested by Denis the problem is that directfb supports RGB and not BGR, but looks like the fb is BGR. regards, Davide [1] http://www.aurel32.net/info/debian_arm_qemu.php [2] http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/GUIBuild [3] http://www.webalice.it/zinosat/g-i/g-i_arm.patch [4] http://www.webalice.it/zinosat/g-i/rootskel-gtk_0.12_arm.udeb [5] http://mail.directfb.org/pipermail/directfb-dev/2006-October/002362.html [6] http://www.webalice.it/zinosat/g-i/50_arm_rgb.patch [7] http://www.webalice.it/zinosat/g-i/g-i_arm.png signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I just tried to do an installation on a Cobalt MIPS machine after being away from the machine for several months and I get an error during partitioning. When it wants to format /boot, which is to get an ext2 r0 (old ext2) partition, it fails with: The ext2 (revision 0) file system creation in partition #1 of IDE1 master (hda) failed. In /var/log/syslog I see: Jan 1 00:11:29 partman: Filesystem features not supported with revision 0 filesystems partman says for this partition: Mount options: defaults Does anyone have an idea what might have broken ext2 r0 support? -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Adding RAID 6 support to the Installation Disk
Currently, I am using the ARC-1220 Areca raid controller with the RAID 6 engine under Debian. The system is i386 based and the only hard drives on the system is the Raid 6 drive set. This is a hardware raid solution. I believe it would be beneficial for Etch users to have a Raid 6 installation option that really works at time of installation. I can help with testing and even do some patches. My time is limited, and I do know time is short with the upcoming planned Etch stable release. If the installation team is open for this, please contact me and let me know the best way to approach this if there is a desire to include this capability into the installation disk. This would require an addition of a device driver with a risk factor that I believe to be low. Currently the drive is open source and has been included into the Git Tree at kernel.org. The driver is supported by the company now and complies with the kernel code writing standards. I believe the drivers will be included in the 2.6.19 or 2.6.20 kernel.org. However, I understand that Etch will use 2.6.16 or 2.6.18 and thus the driver will not be included. This may be one of the best Raid 6 solutions on the market at this time and it does seem to work well with Debian. Another Areca customer made a Debian install disk based on Sarge, which I have been using. It works well, but does not have the driver support for other common devices like sound that are in the newer kernels. The install disk used the 2.6.8 kernel. I have used the manufacturer's provided drivers on kernels 2.6.8, 2.6.16 (Debian version), and 2.6.18 (kernel.org version). I used the drivers from the git Tree and personally installed the drivers in 2.6.16 deb source and 2.6.18 kernel.org source so that I could configure the drivers though make menuconfig. The drivers are installed as modules. Both kernels seem to work fine. Note, that the purpose of this system configuration is to be 100% RAID 6 where in such a case it would be very convenient to have RAID 6 support at time of installation. Test data so far seems to support that this may very well be possible, at least for the test hardware set under use. Some Functional Test Results Follow: The following outlines one of the experiments that I performed. Keep in mind that the only hard drives on the system is the RAID 6 set. I configured 4 drives using the Raid's boot bios software. Once the RAID 6 was configured, Debian was installed from CD using a modified Sarge installation disk. During the actual install, while loading the base system I randomly pulled one of the 4 drives from the system, then in a few minutes pulled another. The alarms sounded, but the install proceeded. After a few minutes I put the drives back into the system. Keep in mind that I am proceeding with the installation without any delay while the two drives are pulled out and then put back into the system. Once the drives re-synced, I did it again and again with differing drives. I then: 1) Added the driver to the stock 2.6.18 kernel from kernel.org, 2) With the 2.6.18 kernel loaded, did a distribution upgrade from Sarge to Etch (Testing). 3) Then modified the Debian 2.6.16 kernel source and installed. All of this work was done on the test system with the RAID 6 set as the only hard drive. I did numerous demonstrations allowing any that came by to randomly select one or two drives and pull them out at will. The system is still in use and under test. Results are good. Hal

Bug#248110: marked as done (installation-reports: Sarge netinst beta-4 on Sony Vaio PCG-GRX690)
Your message dated Mon, 9 Oct 2006 22:03:43 +0900 with message-id <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and subject line I am happy with beta 3 release has caused the attached Bug report to be marked as done. This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with. If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the Bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith. (NB: If you are a system administrator and have no idea what I am talking about this indicates a serious mail system misconfiguration somewhere. Please contact me immediately.)

Just some issues on usability. Key points: (1) 2.6 kernel needs to be upgraded to 2.6.5 series for Sony Vaio. (2) grub install location needs kinder explanation. (Very important) (3) The query in "Time zone configuration" is confusing (important) (4) Password setup query typo. (minor) (Extra) How do I capture boot screen? I foregot it... :-( Details: (1) 2.6 kernel needs to be upgraded to 2.6.5 series. Since the kernel experiences panic with older 2.6 kernel but I found the latest 2.6.5 one seems to work OK, why not update kernel on sarge-i386-netinst.iso. (Old ones were crashing system on my gradually upgraded sid one in /dev/hda5.) (2) grub install location needs kinder explanation. When installing GRUB boot loader on a hard disk, it asks something like: "The device can be specified GRUB's "(hdn)" notation..." while input box has "(hd0)" in it. This is surely intimidating phrases. More verbose phrase or button to HELP screen are needed here since this is the critical action. For example, addition of few lines will makes it much clearer and less intimidating: The device can be specified HURD's "(hdn)" notation or Linux's "/dev/hdx". For example: (hd0) or /dev/hda -- MBR of the 1st IDE disk (hd0,3) or /dev/hda4 -- 4th primary partition of the 1st IDE disk (hd1,4) or /dev/hdb5 -- 1st logical partition of the 2nd IDE disk (I think skipping devfs names are OK. Also SCSI can be skipped since those who dare to use SCSI should read the manual.) Also adding some pointer for how to update GRUB information will be a good idea. (3) The query in "Time zone configuration" is confusing The nuance of "system time" varies depending on program or documentation causing some confusion (/etc/default/rcS and "man hwclock"). (At least to me since woody) Also you may have BIOS time set previously for Windows but you may want to use UTC for BIOS time after installing Linux. Why not change this "Time zone configuration" query something along following: Unix system time (GMT) is set during the boot process from the hardware (BIOS) clock (configured by /etc/default/rcS). Although it is recommended to set this hardware clock to GMT for Linux-only system, Other OS such as windows will require you to set hardware clock to the localtime for compatibility. Your hardware clock currently indicates ??. (You can adjust this hardware clock time value from BIOS or from Linux with hwclock command later.) Will the system time set from the hardware clock assuming it is GMT? (If no, it will assume it to be the localtime.) <*No*> I think /etc/default/rcS entry should be ===NOW=== # Set UTC=yes if your system clock is set to UTC (GMT), and UTC=no if # not. ===CORRECT=== # Set UTC=yes if your system clock is set during boot process by # assuming the hardware (BIOS) clock being calibrated as UTC (GMT), # and UTC=no if not. (4) Password setup query typo. The query of "Password setup" has two practically identical lines. (one with "the", the other with "a"). These are redundant.

Bug#267168: cdrom-detect: How about changing to wishlist bugs
Package: cdrom-detect Version: 1.17 Followup-For: Bug #267168 This bug and its friends which are still there as nomal bugs are now almost finished for me in etch beta 3 release. I am taliking: #247960, #258316, #259264, #262140, #265636, #267168, #314163 Also, the following bug may be merged to above list. #284455 I think these can be changed to a single wishlist bug for documentation request to mention faulty CDROM hardware issue now. If you document this, this closes half the normal bugs for this package :-) Wishlist content: In "Chapter 5.3 Troubleshooting the Installation Process" right after "5.3.1. Floppy Disk Reliability", I sugest to include following | 5.3.2. CD-ROM Reliability | | In some older faulty CD-ROM drives, detecting and reading CD-ROM during | the boot process may fail in various funny ways. This can be worked | around simply by detecting CD-ROM again after the fasilure incident. I also attach a patch which clean code around this failed CD-ROM detect situation. This removes my old workaround and always use "fail" function with "unmount" in it under "exit 1" situation for cleaner consistency. I also think failing soon when manual detection failed is the better way than looping to execute autodetection again. (untested patch). Here is the background and explanation: Essentially, the issue was how to work around faulty hardware which kernel has diffuculty handling by itself. After you have implimented if [ -z "$suite" ] test in this program, there is no bug by this program from my perspective. All we need to do is restart instaler from cdrom-detect phase. Bad hardware should suffer a bit. So what :-) Let me review previous history by my vague memory and explain what I am talking. When trying to install to a machine with old CD-ROM drive on my old DELL machine and others, CDROM mounts fails in many funny ways. The first trial of working around this isuue was retry mounting. Then with newer kernel, it seems the mounting itself happens after several kernel error messages but no error from mount command. The mounted contents of CD-ROM are not right. I mean that symlinks shows up as zero length normal files. This cause read failure in the for distlink in stable testing unstable loop as expected. This leaves $suite unset. Since there is unmount before fail there now, we can rerun cdrom-detect without problem. That was headiache in RC1 days. If this patch is too intrusive to your taste, please do not apply this now. Since SVN repo and 1.17 seems to be the same or just white space difference, I made patch from unstable source. I have not tested this patch with actual installer. I attach here only to indicate my point and wishing this be considered at least for the post-etch release. This patch is at least more current to SVN version than the old ones on BTS.
