Bug#700190: sub...@bugs.debian.org
Whoa, you guys are awesome! Its my first time I'm writing any bug raport to any Linux community support, and I didn't even except so fast respond. And sorry if this is not correctly filled bug report, but Im only wrote it because you asked politely on http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ to: After using the Debian-Installer, please send us an installation report, even if there weren't any problems. I dont feel any reason why I should download and install Ethernet chip driver when my PC work - I just follow If it aint broke- dont fix it philosophy. How do I now have to install my drivers to Line6? How long I gonna wait? I can install them using apt-get? To be honest I really though I gonna stay only on Debian for only 31 days until new openSUSE version will be released and they will make Steam work. Right now I somehow installed Steam on Debian (proof in pic: http://i.imgur.com/TrQ70Ka.jpg) but it work very slowly and buggy, have to be started though console and it is almost impossible to browse anything on Steam or use friendlist, but it download games and some of them work, some not. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I tried it on two networks: my home network (standard router and DHCP) and my university network. Did you stick to the qemu default mode of -net user? That fakes a DHCP service for the guest and uses IPv4 only. Not sure exactly how DNS works in this mode... I tried qemu with two different emulated adapters and both in NAT (fake DHCP) and bridged mode. I tried every emulated network adapter available for virtualbox-ose in both NAT and bridged mode.

pcmciautils utility for CardBus (Re: Bug#698105: Please remove pcmciautils from laptop task)
Hi Colin, Colin Watson wrote: On Mon, Jan 14, 2013 at 06:33:53AM +0100, Michael Biebl wrote: PCMCIA is so uncommon nowadays that installing pcmciautils on every laptop by default is imho no longer warranted. I would thus like to see it removed from task-laptop, similar to apmd. PCMCIA has been a technology which was relevant in the 1990s and has been superseded by e.g. ExpressCard for over 10 years. I've CCed Colin, the pcmciautils maintainer, for his input. pcmciautils is a slightly misleading name, as it does some CardBus handling as well. However, it's true that udev improvements mean that it's no longer actually needed to get anything other than 16-bit PCMCIA cards up and running; so I think this proposed tasksel change is OK. If pcmciautils can actually be useful in any way for CardBus in wheezy, the misleading name is a secondary problem considering that while the short description, the extended description and the manual pages mention PCMCIA, none say anything about CardBus.

Bug#618000: Support for ISO files in loopback
On 2011-03-13 10:55, Nicolas George wrote: GRUB 2 has a loopback driver that allows it to read files in ISO 9660 images stored in a file. Using this feature, it is possible to make an USB stick bootable and install several live systems on it by simply copying the ISO file. But this requires some cooperation from the initrd: it must find the relevant ISO file and mount it in loopback. Casper-based CDs have support for this mechanism if they get iso-scan/filename=/path/to/file.iso on the kernel command line. GRML live CDs go a little further, since they have a /boot/grub/loopback.cfg with a complete GRUB 2 configuration. Support for booting from a loopback ISO image would be nice in debian-installer too. I'd also very much like to see this. In the age of cheap large flash drives, being able to boot various ISO images from a single stick is much more economical and convenient than the one-ISO-per-stick approach of the hybrid ISO images. For example, I have a single 32GB USB stick where I can currently boot the regular installers of GRML, System Rescue CD, Ubuntu, etc., except Debian. My workaround currently is to additionally download the kernel/initrd from hd-media which then proceed to find the ISO, but that's an extra two steps and you don't get the fancy boot menu provided by the Hybrid ISO installer (with all the extra options such as Expert Install, Rescue mode, etc.) As far as I know, it would only require, when looking for installation media, to scan the kernel command line for an option specifying a filesystem and a file, mount that filesystem and setup that file to loopback. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

As an opening gambit, some proposed dates, all of which appear to currently work for me: February 23rd March 2nd March 9th No opinion on dates, but here's the state of the Linux kernel: The current version in s-p-u (2.6.32-47) adds support for new SCSI controllers, which should be included in the installer. However there has been disappointingly little testing feedback about this. There are a couple of pending non-security fixes: * [s390] s390/time: fix sched_clock() overflow (Closes: #698382) * Revert time: Avoid making adjustments if we haven't accumulated anything (Closes: #699112, regression in 2.6.32.60) These ought to be included in the point release but should not be need in the installer. Dann/Moritz, do you have any plans for a security or other stable update? Should I upload to stable with just these two fixes?
