[RFC] Some love for partman-md v2

2008-06-01 Thread Jérémy Bobbio
Hi!

Thanks Frans and Max for your comments. :)

Most of your remarks have been addressed in the revised patch.  I am not
making a detailed reply as I won't really be able to spend more time on
this right now.  Feel free to pick the work where it is if you feel that
I have missed something important.

I just tested this, and the bug is indeed fixed by the patch.  I have
added the necessary "Closes".

Is there any harm in closing it with this patch?

I have tested all these cases and they work fine.  \o/

commit 93fcba972d6b1ecf97b932c5145399112f3778dc
Author: Jérémy Bobbio <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Clean up the initialization of MD devices

The initialization of MD devices in partman previously diverged from what
others partman components are doing, resulting in quite few bugs and
really bad interactions with crypto setup.

 * Scanning for existing MD devices

   During partman initialization, the init.d/md-devices script now load
   kernel modules and scan for MD devices the first time it is started.

   This script has been move to be called before init.d/parted to have
   existing RAID partitions listed on the first partitioner run.

   Thus, existing MD devices will now be activated at the begining of
   the partionner.  (Closes: #391474)

   The same code snippet in mdcfg is now only called if /proc/mdstat did
   exist before.  The attempt to load the ancient "md" module has also
   been removed.

 * Keep configurations of RAID partitions accross partman restarts

   MD devices were previously skipped in init.d/parted, resulting in the
   loss of the previous configuration.  We now only skip deactivated RAID
   devices, in a similar way than sataraid and multipath devices are
   skipped.

   Most of the job of init.d/md and init.d/md-devices have been cleaned up
   and merged into init.d/md to cope with the previous change. The
   initialization scheme is now closer to what is done for LVM.

   (Closes: #391479, #391483, #393728, #398668, #475479)

[RFC] Column alignment in partman v2

2008-06-01 Thread Jérémy Bobbio
Hi!

Two months later… Here's another attempt to have the partitioning screen
looking nice on the graphical installer. :)

On Tue, Apr 01, 2008 at 05:49:49AM +0200, Frans Pop wrote:

Good news: I have found ways to implement center and right alignment in
the text, newt AND GTK+ frontends! :)  So this regression is history.

We could even center other options in the partitioning screens if we'd
like to. [1]

[1] An example:
http://people.debian.org/~lunar/cdebconf-align-center+right.png

> It should be tested before we commit this. I would consider regressions in 
> preseeding of partitioning to be grave bugs.

I have made some preseeding tests with the given patch:

  * Work fine:
d-i partman-auto/init_automatically_partition \
select Guided - use entire disk
d-i partman-auto/init_automatically_partition select some_device

d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select Separate /home partition
d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select home

  * Don't work (as before):
d-i partman-auto/init_automatically_partition select regular

If we feel the last one is desirable, it's just a matter of adding an
extra test in debconf_select().

Comments on the attached patch set are welcome, as usual. :)

Well, from both this and your pastebin, it looks like this is a libc6 
problem on arm. Suggest you either mail the debian-arm mailing list to 
see if others can suggest something or reproduce it, or that you file a 
bugreport against libc6.

debootstrap just calls dpkg to install things. If something fails to 
install, it is much more likely that the problem is to be found there 
than in debootstrap.
It is also likely to be architecture-specific.

Cheers,
FJP

Package:  console-setup
Version:  1.20
Severity: important
Tags: patch
User: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Usertags: incorrect-dependency

I just checked the boot order in unstable on a machine with dependency
based boot sequencing enabled, and discovered a problem with the
init.d scripts provided in this package.  It was first discovered by
Michael Biebl who reported it to the initscripts-ng-devel mailing
list. The problem is that console-setup and keyboard-setup is not
inserted after the console-screen and keymap scripts in the boot
sequence when dependency based boot sequencing is used, leading to
changed behavior (wrong keyboard and console setting).

Here is a patch to solve this issue, by documenting that console-setup
and keyboard-setup should run after the other scripts.

I think this would be a good idea, but as I don't have the time to do
proper testing right now, I'd rather leave that to someone else. :)

UUID support in GRUB

2008-06-01 Thread Robert Millan

Hi,

I'm in the process of enabling UUID support in GRUB.  This basically means
two different things:

  1- GRUB should use UUIDs internally to identify the devices it needs to
 access (for example, which device contains your /boot), regardless of
 how BIOS assigns numbers.

  2- update-grub should automatically detect the UUID of your root filesystem
 and tell Linux about it via "root=UUID=xxx" parameter.

Latest grub2 in unstable (1.96+20080601-1) is already doing #1 (to some extent)
and #2 (although #2 can be disabled).

#1 I don't expect to see in grub legacy; but #2 is trivial to implement.  My
plan is to use grub2 as a testbed for this feature, and if no problem arises
add it to grub legacy as well.

I'd like to receive some feedback on:

  - Whether current use of UUIDs in GRUB 2 is working for you (specially
those of you with weird setups).

  - Whether it would be preferable to wait untill beta2 is out to allow this
change to migrate to testing.

  - If you know of any reason why enabling this would generate trouble.

Thanks

The attached patch should add support for multipath.  However, I can't
test it myself.

If someone can confirm it works, I'll get it applied in upstream.

IMO that info belongs in the SOURCES.LIST(5) man page, not in the file
itself.

One reason is that including it the sources.list file would mean that
derived distributions would be stuck with documentation pointing to
Debian mirrors while they might have their own. Of course, they could
patch that, but avoiding distribution-specific information when possible
is generally considered desirable.
As the sources.list man page is rather Debian-specific already this is
less of an issue there. Therefore cloning to apt.


The most we could do in apt-setup is to include a reference to that manual
page in the generated sources.list file, but consulting manpages should
be the first step for finding info anyway, so that could be considered
redundant. How do others feel about this?

Bug#483957: apt-setup: Display a link to the authoritive list of mirrors in sources.list

2008-06-01 Thread Simon Paillard
Package: apt-setup
Severity: wishlist

In the case the mirror choosen by the user stops working, the user
doesn't have any information about how to change it.

A first answer to this problem should be adding such a line in the
sources.list file generated by apt-setup during installation :

# Reference list of Debian mirrors: http://www.debian.org/mirror/list

debootstrap hangs

2008-06-01 Thread Olaf Lüke
Hallo,

Im trying to get eabi debian running on a small single board computer
based on an xscale pxa270. I can allready boot a minimal initramfs with
busybox, but when i chroot to the debootstraped debian and try to do
/debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage
it hangs. The debootstrap.log looks like this:

http://pastebin.ca/1035353

I waited for hours, it definetely is hanging there.
