partman-base 137 MIGRATED to testing
FYI: The status of the partman-base source package in Debian's testing distribution has changed. Previous version: 135 Current version: 137 -- This email is automatically generated once a day. As the installation of new packages into testing happens multiple times a day you will receive later changes on the next day.

Oh, and we also need 'ntpservers' I think. I can't test that here now, but
netcfg does (in dhcp.c):
if ((d = fopen(NTP_SERVER_FILE, r)) != NULL) {
char ntpservers[DHCP_OPTION_LEN + 1] = { 0 };
fgets(ntpservers, DHCP_OPTION_LEN, d);

debconf_set(client, netcfg/dhcp_ntp_servers,
ntpservers);
}
}
and the clock-setup postinst has:
db_get netcfg/dhcp_ntp_servers
Yes; it should work fine. The script writes the content to the file
netcfg expects. I couldn't test it as well but ought to work fine.
Also, if I run netcfg multiple times with dhcp3, I get multiple leases in
the leases file. You seem to overwrite the existing file. Not sure if that
needs fixing or not.
I think it is not worth. syslog now has the gotten IP each time it
runs so is easy to spot if it has been run twice.

With dhcp3 not all the leases in the file are valid aka only the latest

I simply assumed that it was a graphical glitch of some kind. I was unable to set the bootable flag as well and had been setting the BIOS boot area flag (bios_grub) as well. I'm not clear as to the semantic of that flag, but that's what I have set at the moment and it seems to be booting my machine correctly. I'd be glad to provide more information at request, but I'm not terribly familiar with GPT, so I'm not sure what's relevant. :) OK. I'm not a gpt expert myself, but it does seem logical to me that a BIOS boot area cannot be used for RAID. AFAIK it's supposed to be a (small) separate partition reserved for use for booting the system. Possibly the bios_grub flag should have been implemented as a use as option instead of a toggle. This seems to be confirmed as the changelog for version 71 of the relevant component has: * Convert BIOS GRUB boot area support to a method, thereby making it impossible to accidentally put a filesystem on such a partition as well, and making it simpler to preseed. So it looks to be changed already for Squeeze. So for now I'm going to just fix the display issue and assume that the disappearing RAID flag is as it should be. Thanks for the additional info.

[ ... ] We usually don't do make such changes lightly. I guess this decision is not up to me. ;-) No, but you can help the decision be made by demonstrating precisely how much of a cost there actually is by building up a customised installer and presenting the appropriate statistics. On i386, the cost would be about: 50244 bytes for the kernel modules + 8224 bytes for vconfig (might be reduced by using vconfig from busybox) + 1000 bytes for necfg changes (this is an estimation) + ? for the udeb packaging (does this count? It don't end up in initrd) So the unpacked initrd size would be increased by ca. 60 kbytes. The size of initrd is a problem but not really a blocker. Besides it will be smaller then it since we could use vconfig from busybox. So it would be like 52 Kbytes in the end. For CD images there's no need to have it in initrd since it could be loaded from the CD. For network installs yes, this could be needed. But cost is not the only criteria, I think. Benefit is another one. Install over vlan is not exactly a common use case. Up to now, I've seen only 5 people showing interest into this topic at all: Luca, Philipp, Robert, Ferenc and me. This is probably not _that_ mass of request that would justify _any_ cost? Given the initrd increase, I think we should drop the idea about integration into d-i. I don't know about the other four people, but I build customized install CDs anyway, and I have integrated vlan-install already into them (though the integration is not as clean yet as it should be for d-i) Personally I use vlan here in the company for choosing between the various networks we have for development but most of time those are used using virtual machines and then I use scripts to put the virtual interface on it before loading the VM. It would be nice to have d-i supporting it; just a matter of how do that now IMO. -- Otavio Salvador O.S.

(Please reply to the d-boot list.) Hello Felix, On Saturday 30 January 2010, Frans Pop wrote: What do people think of degrading reiserfs support to optional, i.e. only usable by specifically selecting partman-reiserfs in anna? The rationale would be that its popularity has decreased (AFAIK), upstream development is not very active and that more (and better?) alternatives are available now than there used to be when reiserfs was quite popular. IMO its relevance for new installs for Squeeze could be minor. We're considering to make support for reiserfs optional in Debian Installer for Squeeze. In the D-I team there seems to be consensus for that. Main reason is to reduce the memory footprint for standard installs which has increased amongst others because support for other filesystems (ext4, and possibly also btrfs) has been added. As mentioned above, reiserfs would still be supported, but only if the user explicitly selects it. The only change needed is lowering the priority of udebs, which I'd take care of. Comments?

This is not going to work in busybox shell:
option domain-name-servers ${dns/ /,};
# test=a b c
# echo ${test/ /,}
/bin/sh: syntax error: bad substitution
Suggest you use a function, something like:
comma_separate() {
echo $1 | sed s/ /,/g
}
and then use:
option domain-name-servers $(comma_separate $dns);
And the same substitution should be made for ntp servers, which can also
have multiple values.

Re: [RFC] Degrading reiserfs to optional filesystem?
Quoting Christian PERRIER (bubu...@debian.org): This is only personal opinion, but I found out that it's quite some time since I abandoned reiserfs in favor of mostly xfs on various servers at workand my own personal machines. So, I tend to agree with you that it could be moved to be optional. I had a very brief talk on IRC with Josselin Mouette (actually, not a real talk: a few sentences spread out over the entire Sunday on #debian-devel-fr). Joss objected something like what are you guys proposing as alternatives to reiserfs for laptops. Ext4? His rationale was that ext3 is annoying with its extra-long fsck operations and xfs is too sensitive to brutal power failures. My only objection to this is my personal experience with XFS (which is a little bit small). I personnally never experienced problems with brutal power outages, even though I recently had numerous occasions to try this (X hanging while I was off network, with power on/off as only option). So, well, I answered Joss that, yes, ext4 will be available in D-I as an option so that might answer his concerns. But, still, I felt the duty to mention his concerns.
