Bug#773274: installation-reports: parted_server segfault
Package: installation-reports Version: 20141216-00:08 When attempting an install using a daily image, I ran into a case where parted_server segfaults with the following: parted_server[29651]: segfault at 8 ip 0040b4b1 sp 7fff5d7c54c0 error 4 in parted_server[40+12000] I tried it several times and attempted to distill it down to the simplest case I could. To repeat: 1) create a partition and mark it for encryption 2) configure encryption, set it up (don't erase to save time, but that doesn't matter), finish encryption 3) mark newly created encrypted volume as for LVM 4) configure LVM, create a volume group and a logical volume, finish The menu will freeze at Detecting filesystems and the above error is in syslog. Setting up LVM on a non-encrypted disk works just fine, I didn't see the problem unless it was encrypted.

Bug#773274: parted_server segfault
I spent some more time repeating the bug and realized I was missing a detail and I also distilled the test further. Here are the new steps: 1) create two partitions, mark them both for encryption, accept their encryption settings 2) run Configure encrypted volumes, create the 2 volumes, finish 3) After returning from #2, mark the first encrypted volume as for LVM, leave the second to it's default of ext4 4) Configure LVM, create vg, mark the first encrypted volume as a pv, finish. It attempts to go back to the partitioner and then the partman_server segfault happens with the menu hung on Detecting file systems. Also, I determined a few other things * It's not necessary to create an lvol, just the vg with the encrypted pv is enough. * Encryption settings don't seem to matter * I tried erasing the partition contents in case something in them was causing problems Hopefully that is clear and someone is able to repeat the bug, let me know if I need to explain more or if you have questions.

(No version of Linux has ever supported the 286 or earlier chips in the series.) All i486 and later processors are still supported[3]. This should be updated.

Re: win32-loader icon update?
Le mercredi, 10 décembre 2014, 05.56:22 jnqnfe a écrit : In relation to bug #772691 (autorun.inf not displaying a custom Debian icon from setup.exe aka win32-loader.exe when a Debian install disc/iso is loaded in a Windows environment, unlike Ubuntu) which I just reported, I created a small collection of possible replacement icons for win32-loader.exe (simple, clean, smart and in a range of colours!). I thought I would offer them up here in case you're interested. Thanks for these, and the quite large choice palette. I'm not a great fan of the rounded alternatives though; icons are usually square and what we want to be seen is the Debian swirl, not a circle, IMHO. Iff we change the win32-loader .ico icon (that might then also be displayed as a CD icon on Windows hosts), we should aim at using the picked Lines desktop theme: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianArt/Themes/Lines The current icon has 5 embedded icon sizes (16,24,32,48,256), but is not generated at build-time; ideally, we'd have a 512 pixels-sized svg, generate the correctly-sized png's using rsvg-convert and create the final swirl.ico (name can be changed of course) out of these. Are you interested in creating a Lines-themed square svg ? I could manage the build-time creation.
