Bug#697442: Bad experiences with wheezy installer
Package: installation-reports Boot method: CD Image version: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/wheezy_di_beta4/amd64/iso-cd/debian-wheezy-DI-b4-amd64-netinst.iso Date: 2013-01-04 22:00 UTC Machine: HP Proliant Microserver Processor: amd64 Turion Memory: 2G Partitions: there's the problem :-) Output of lspci -knn (or lspci -nn): Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [o] Detect network card:[o] Configure network: [o ] Detect CD: [o ] Load installer modules: [o ] Detect hard drives: [o ] Partition hard drives: [E ] Install base system:[E ] Clock/timezone setup: [ ] User/password setup:[ ] Install tasks: [ ] Install boot loader:[ ] Overall install:[ ] Comments/Problems: *** rant warning *** I'm trying to setup partitions like 1: sda1 /boot ext4 250MB 2: sda2 250G encrypted lvm vg00 lv 10MB root xfs to be mounted as root file system It doesn't work. It seems to do the right thing but cannot create xfs fs. It will create an ext4 fs but can't use that either! In install phase it thinks all debs are corrupted. Very difficult to stop the install phase when it errors. If you revert to shell you can create luks partitition, create lvm pv, create vg and lv. In that lv mkfs.xfs fails - wrong tag size or something. It seems to know nothing about the partition. You can create an ext4 fs in the lv, mount it and read it. If you mount it on /target/root and select 'install base system' it insists on returning to partitioner but that fails to use mounted root fs and kindly umounts it. It behaves the same with graphical and dialog installer. It's not a nice tool to use especially the partitioner. Half the menu goes off the bottom of the screen, you don't know whether to choose 'done' or 'continue' or 'go back', there's no abort to main process menu and 'go back shouldn't mean restart. Really, you need just one menu and it needs to be consistent and it needs to do as it's told. But most of all, it needs to handle errors properly. I gave up - I couldn't figure what was wrong. I then tried netinst using PXE. That hangs (needs power cycle) when you do 'configure keyboard'. Skipped that phase and it went better. I managed to complete installation but it won't boot. Initramfs issues the cryptsetup password prompt and then hangs (needs power cycle). I wonder if the problem with kbd config and cannot read keyboard at boot are related. But I can't puzzle it out. I've spent hours on it now and I'm giving up. I've got another system, identical h/w and config, which I just dist-upgraded to wheezy with just a few minor problems so I think I'll copy that. Finally a WIBNI. It would save a lot of hassle if it was possible to save initial, network and the partition configs to, say, a usb stick, so one doesn't have to go round and round that loop when things don't work. I must have done it all 20 times. All the best Dick BTW if you enter a partition size of 20G it will will give you 8.4G. You have to specify 20GB. It's just a little thing but it is so annoying. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#697442: better experience with wheezy installer
Following my rant I zeroed the partition table and started over. It all went swimmingly well. Using the net-dist CD. No problems with xfs or crypto and errors. Also no finger trouble. The only issue is the font on the console is set to 600x480 and not 1024x768 or even 1280x1024. So I don't know what was wrong last night. Before I reinstalled with the net-dist CD I wiped partition table and reinstalled with netboot PXE. I missed out the keyboard section again. It all installed OK but didn't boot - no grub. In rescue system iniramfs complained about no kbd. I went back to keyboard section and it immediately hung-up. I think there's a problem there. http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/daily/netboot/netboot.tar.gz Thanks Dick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I thought vga was deprecated. What I do notice is things like systemrescuecd and parted-magic manage to get the console fonts right. Debian doesn't seem to try.

Basically, options for the X server (see rootskel-gtk's S62Xorg) lead to its termination after a first client exited, and that's what's happening when the theme is set (S65theme). Switching -terminate and -noreset fixes that (but see the manpage…). Looks like we need to review those options.

I'm not Cyril, but from the diff I see in recent commits, I very much doubt he or the release team thinks they are acceptable for wheezy. The problem is that uploads that happened have then made it mandatory to go through the t-p-u way for *other fixes* that are needed for wheezy.
