Since this has nothing to do with the installer really, -- you're trying to assemble the array manually using mdadm and it fails, I'm reassigning this bugreport to mdadm package. However, since I don't have hardware where I can test this, I'm tagging this as "help", -- because I can't debug it myself. Maybe someone with the hardware will be able to understand what's going on. BTW, does /dev/md/ directory exists? Thanks, /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Doh. That one escaped my attention when this message was added. We usually avoid hardcoding "Debian" and this is probably one of the very rare cases where we failed. The message was added in a bit of a hurry recently and that failed to be catched by the review:-( Sadly, I'd prefer us not to change this now.as it will require Yet Another Round of translation updateswhich takes weeks to achieve. I'd prefer something like "If you continue to install in UEFI mode, it might be difficult to reboot the machine into any BIOS-mode operating systems later" and avoid "the distro" or anything like that. The output of "lsb_release -si" is likely to not work. But even just dropping "Debian" does not guarantee we can easily fix translations as it is likely that, for some languages, dropping the distro name wouldn't be enough. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Preamble: I've set up a clean system via debootstrap and want to set it up using chroot. For configuring, I'd like to use debconf (the backend database, not the conference of course). For setting up the correct keyboard on TTY (not ssh), in my case it's "de-latin1", I figured out "two and a half" way to do it the correct way with correct handling of debconf backend. I'll explain the ways and the problems below. Helpers: - check and fix database for consistency: /usr/share/debconf/fix_db.pl - manual package reconfiguration: dpkg-reconfigure -plow - export of manual selections: debconf-get-selections | grep ^console > selections.txt - import of manual selections: debconf-set-selections < selections.txt - cleanup and purge package: apt-get purge === Way 1: console-data 1. apt-get purge console-data console-common 2. /usr/share/debconf/fix_db.pl 3. apt-get install console-data console-common 4. dpkg-reconfigure -plow console-data 5. debconf-get-selections | grep ^console > console.txt 6. apt-get purge console-data console-common Then I preload the manual settings to the database (with checking the DB for consistency first): 1. /usr/share/debconf/fix_db.pl 2. debconf-set-selections < console.txt 3. apt-get install console-data console-common Result: "Looking for keymap to install: NONE" Okay, that didn't work... Even after this didn't work: "DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg-reconfigure console-data" === So here's the work-around, which I call "and a half": Way 1.5: console-data with console-common 1. echo console-common console-data/keymap/policy select Select keymap from full list | debconf-set-selections 2. echo console-common console-data/keymap/full select de-latin1 | debconf-set-selections 3. DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg-reconfigure console-data Yep, this one works... Is this acceptable or bad a work-around? === Way 2: console-setup After installing console-setup, exporting the selection and purging the package, I've preloaded the settings again: 1. debconf-set-selections <<\EOF console-setup console-setup/codesetcode string Lat15 console-setup console-setup/codeset47 select # Latin1 and Latin5 - western Europe and Turkic languages console-setup console-setup/fontsize-fb47 select 8x16 console-setup console-setup/fontsize string 8x16 console-setup console-setup/charmap47 select UTF-8 console-setup console-setup/store_defaults_in_debconf_db boolean true console-setup console-setup/fontsize-text47 select 8x16 console-setup console-setup/fontface47select VGA keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/unsupported_config_layout boolean true keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/store_defaults_in_debconf_db boolean true keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/modelcodestring pc105 keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/unsupported_layout boolean true keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/layoutcode string de keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/compose select No compose key keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/modelselect Generic 105-key (Intl) PC keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/variant select German keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/altgrselect The default for the keyboard layout keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap select de keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/switch select No temporary switch keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/unsupported_config_options boolean true keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/unsupported_options boolean true keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/toggle select No toggling keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/ctrl_alt_bkspboolean false EOF 2. apt-get install console-setup Wow, keyboard works, BUT: console-setup didn't read the correct font (wrong face & size).

Buffalo Linkstation support in debian installer
Hi, Could you have a look at the issues #744714, #744715 and #744716? These add support for the Buffalo Linkstation (ARM/kirkwood) to the debian installer. There is already support for it in the debian kernel and in the flash-kernel package in jessie. SO there is everything to run debian on this box, but no installer image atm. Unfortunately, the patches included in the issues never got merged. They were already reviewed by Martin Michlmayr. Is there a chance that these minor patches will still make it into the debian jessie installer? -michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#777140: Using mdadm to install Debian on Intel RST RAID array stopped working between Wheezy 7.8 and Jessie RC1
Package: debian-installer Version: used in Debian GNU/Linux Jessie-DI-rc1 "Jessie" - Official RC amd64 CD Binary-1 20150109-01:06 image My UEFI motherboard has an Intel RST chip on it, which I use to set up a pair of SSD drives in a RAID-0 array. I have successfully installed Debian Wheezy on this array in the past, using an expert set up and some manual configuration during the install. I tried repeating that process using the Jessie RC1 installer, and it failed. For Wheezy, I used the image Debian GNU/Linux 7.8.0 "Wheezy" - Official amd64 CD Binary-1 20150110-14:43 For Jessie, I used the image Debian GNU/Linux Jessie-DI-rc1 "Jessie" - Official RC amd64 CD Binary-1 20150109-01:06 Both images were written to a USB stick, and both installers were booted in UEFI mode. To do the installation, I run through the first few steps of the expert install, up to and including detecting disks. At that point, I switch to the console (Alt-F2), to assemble and start the software arrays. First I load the kernel modules for RAID, which also loads the md_mod module, and then I execute mdadm to assemble and start the arrays. When I do this in Wheezy, it successfully builds the arrays and starts them: ~ # modprobe raid0 ~ # mdadm --assemble --scan --verbose mdadm: looking for devices for further assembly mdadm: /dev/sdb is identified as a member of /dev/md/imsm0, slot -1. mdadm: /dev/sda is identified as a member of /dev/md/imsm0, slot -1. mdadm: added /dev/sda to /dev/md/imsm0 as -1 mdadm: added /dev/sdb to /dev/md/imsm0 as -1 mdadm: Container /dev/md/imsm0 has been assembled with 2 drives mdadm: looking in container /dev/md127 mdadm: found match on member /md127/0 in /dev/md127 mdadm: Started /dev/md/Boot_0 with 2 devices However, following the same steps in Jessie, mdadm fails to start the array because of some file permission problem: ~ # modprobe raid0 ~ # mdadm --assemble --scan --verbose mdadm: looking for devices for further assembly mdadm: /dev/sdb is identified as a member of /dev/md/imsm0, slot -1. mdadm: /dev/sda is identified as a member of /dev/md/imsm0, slot -1. mdadm: added /dev/sda to /dev/md/imsm0 as -1 mdadm: added /dev/sdb to /dev/md/imsm0 as -1 mdadm: Container /dev/md/imsm0 has been assembled with 2 drives mdadm: cannot open device /dev/md/imsm0: No such file or directory However, following the same steps in Jessie, mdadm fails to start the array because of some file permission problem: Consequently, while I can proceed to the next installer step in Wheezy, because the system sees the RAID array and I can create partitions on it, in Jessie, the array is never started, no /dev/md/ device is created, and I cannot continue.

Hence I think this is release-critical. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages di-netboot-assistant depends on: ii curl 7.38.0-4 ii wget 1.16-3 Versions of packages di-netboot-assistant recommends: ii atftpd 0.7.git20120829-1 Versions of packages di-netboot-assistant suggests: pn dhcp3-server | udhcpd | dnsmasq pn elilo ii syslinux 3:6.03+dfsg-5 ii vim-addon-manager0.5.3 -- Configuration Files: /etc/di-netboot-assistant/di-netboot-assistant.conf changed: TFTP_ROOT=/srv/tftp MIRROR_REGEXPS="s=://ftp.debian.org/=://ftp.stw-bonn.de/= s=://ftp.ubuntu.com/=://ftp.hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de/=" umask 0002 /etc/di-netboot-assistant/di-sources.list changed: stable amd64 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/stable/main/installer-amd64/current/images/ netboot/netboot.tar.gz stable i386 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/stable/main/installer-i386/current/images/ netboot/netboot.tar.gz stable ia64 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/stable/main/installer-ia64/current/images/ netboot/netboot.tar.gz stable sparc http://ftp.debian.org/dists/stable/main/installer-sparc/current/images/ netboot/boot.img stable-gtk amd64 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/stable/main/installer-amd64/current/images/ netboot/gtk/netboot.tar.gz stable-gtk i386 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/stable/main/installer-i386/current/images/ netboot/gtk/netboot.tar.gz wheezy amd64 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/wheezy/main/installer-amd64/current/images/ netboot/netboot.tar.gz wheezy i386 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/wheezy/main/installer-i386/current/images/ netboot/netboot.tar.gz wheezy ia64 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/wheezy/main/installer-ia64/current/images/ netboot/netboot.tar.gz wheezy sparc http://ftp.debian.org/dists/wheezy/main/installer-sparc/current/images/ netboot/boot.img wheezy-gtk amd64 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/wheezy/main/installer-amd64/current/images/ netboot/gtk/netboot.tar.gz wheezy-gtk i386 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/wheezy/main/installer-i386/current/images/ netboot/gtk/netboot.tar.gz oldstable amd64 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/oldstable/main/installer-amd64/current/images/ netboot/netboot.tar.gz oldstable i386 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/oldstable/main/installer-i386/current/images/ netboot/netboot.tar.gz oldstable ia64 http://ftp.debian.org/dists/oldstable/main/installer-ia64/current/i

I want to install Debian/testing on a new computer. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I upgraded the PXE installer for testing using di-netboot-assistant, then I tried to install with it. * What was the outcome of this action? I expected the installer to run. * What outcome did you expect instead? The installer failed with the error "vesamenu.c32 is not a COM32R image" (written from memory). When I compare the vesamenu.c32 files in the testing and daily installers with the same files from stable and some Ubuntu version there are some differences: * The working files have a size about 150kB and are "COM executable" * The problematic files have a size of 26kB and are "ELF 32-bit LSB shared object" This is an example of a good file: http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-amd64/20140316/images/netboot/debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/vesamenu.c32 This is a bad file: http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-amd64/20140802/images/netboot/debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/vesamenu.c32 Regards, Kim Hansen -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.14-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash --- End Message --- --- Begin Message --- Source: di-netboot-assistant Source-Version: 0.38a+nmu1 We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of di-netboot-assistant, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

The patch has been mostly provided by Jonas Smedegaard and should fix all issues related to new syslinux: - Lookup pxelinux.0 in /usr/lib/PXELINUX (not only /usr/lib/syslinux). - Lookup only BIOS binaries (not accidentally include EFI binaries). - Install core modules in tftpd debian-installer dir. - Keep vesamenu and menu modules in sync with PXELINUX. - Enable jessie releases.
