Sorry, I forgot about partition selection. Both things are handled separately,
and both of them might need to be adjusted.
But this is not the right place for that either. grub-install determines
partitions with:
GRUB_LEGACY_0_BASED_PARTITIONS=1 grub-probe --device-map=${device_map}
-t drive -d "$1"
and update-grub determines partitions with:
GRUB_LEGACY_0_BASED_PARTITIONS=1 grub-probe --device-map=${device_map}
-t drive -d "$1" 2> /dev/null || {
In both cases, it's grub-probe you want to fix. There are other code paths,
but they're not essential, and we're not currently supporting them.
Note: grub-probe uses a generic heuristic that works for most device paths,
it's possible that no change is needed there.

Mount option noexec in partman still ignored
Hiya, If you choose the mount option 'noexec' for a partition in the partition manager, it doesn't show up in /etc/fstab after installation. This is a 2,5 years ago reported bug that still exists in D-I RC2: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=383912 -- Roel Koops
Bug#513752: Acknowledgement (debian-installer: lenny - "System Sounds" do not give sound, MP3 and CD do give sound.)
I believe that this issue should be directed to another location. While I have no idea why "System Sounds" works, I now believe that a) a standard Debian Lenny install is installing OSS for sound, not alsa. However what does gnome-audio require, oss or alsa ? b) "gnome-desktop-environment" installs "gstreamer0.10-alsa " which would indicate that gnome uses alsa. c) does sun-java use oss or alsa ? sun-java works with standard installation of lenny, but if I install libesd-alsa0 then gnome-audio produces "System Sounds" but sun-java then does not. I am not sure where this issue resides, I would suggest that in the first place it would be "gnome-desktop-environment" . Thanks, George. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
Bug#396458: Ma bonne foi
Je suis sœur Francoise Colette de KUWAIT, je suis marié au chef Kamson Parma. Il la travaillé avec l'ambassade de KOWEIT en Côte d'Ivoire pour neuf ans avant qu'il ne meurt en 2004 precisement le 26 avril. Nous étions mariés pendant onze années sans enfant. Il est mort après une brève maladie qui a duré pendant seulement quatre jours. Avant sa mort nous étions tous les deux chrétiens. Quand mon défunt mari était vivant il a déposé la somme de $1.8 million (Un million huit cent mille Dollars Americains) dans une banque ici à Abidjan.. Récemment, mon docteur m'a fait savoir que je suis condamne a mourir a cause d'un cancer et selon lui je ne pourrai pas passer plus de 8 mois encore. Vous comprendrez donc que cela me dechire le coeur et je n'ai plus le sommeil car a rester la a attendre sa mort est une epreuve tres difficile et penible. Sachant donc mon etat de sante , j'ai decide de faire un don de cet argent afin qu'il serve ici bas a aider les plus demunis et je me tourne donc vers vous pour ce leg. Je veux une église qui emploiera ces fonds pour des orphelinats, veuves selon la volonte de Dieu. La bible nous a incités pour comprendre que "bénie est la main qui" donne ". J'ai pris cette décision parce que je n'ai aucun enfant qui pourrait heriter de cet argent et plusieurs de parents ne sont pas des chrétiens et je ne veux pas que mes efforts soient vains. C'est pourquoi je prends cette décision. Je n'ai pas peur de la mort par conséquent que je sais où je vais. Je sais que je vais être a la droite du seigneur. L'exode 14 CONTRE 14 indique que "le seigneur défendra ma cause et je tiendra ma paix". Dès que je recevrai votre réponse je vous donnerai tous les contacts de la banque ici à Abidjan, et vous devez entrer en contact avec elle pour transférer ces fonds sur votre compte. J'attends donc votre reponse avec impatience et que Dieu vous benisse. Votre Sœur en Christ, Francoise Colette

The important part of the patch is the last hunk. Independent of the probing (which we currently don't need in d-i, since we use the workaround dmraid uses) we need to pick the right *partition* name [1].

I suppose that Debian GNOME maintainers pondered very carefully the dependencies of gnome-desktop-environment and, if they did put gnome-audio as a "Suggests" only, they probably have good reasons.
