Yes.  (Actually it's just ignored, but having it there makes
grub-installer's code a little simpler.)

Looks very much like the bug fixed upstream here:

  
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/commit/?id=cda0a857dd7a27cd5d621747464bfe71e8727fff

I'll cherry-pick that patch.

Thanks,

Feature request: Support for QEMU Virtio driver for CD-ROM

2019-03-19 Thread Brian Wengel
Package: debian-installer

Version: debian-testing-amd64-DVD-1.iso, from 2019-03-16


When installing Debian as a guest in KVM/QEMU assigning the ISO to a CD-ROM
using Virtio or Virtio-SCSI as the bus type the debian-installer cannot see
the CD-ROM drive and ask for drivers.
I assume the Virtio drivers are not bundled/loaded in the installer. It
would be nice if it was :-)

In my benchmark of different bus types for CD-RO I got this read numbers:
-ata/ide: 541MB/s

-sata:  1,2GBs

-Virtio-SCSI:   3,6GB


Unfortunately I didn't test Virtio, but it should be at least just as fast
as the Virtio-SCSI
I've read from RHEL that Virtio is a little faster (at least for HDDs).


Bug#925105: CD-ROM is default repository, not mirror

2019-03-19 Thread Brian Wengel
Package: debian-installer

Version: debian-testing-amd64-DVD-1.iso, from 2019-03-16


After a clean installation this in the content of the sources.list:

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Buster_ - Official Snapshot amd64
DVD Binary-1 20190311-05:00]/ buster contrib main

deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Buster_ - Official Snapshot amd64 DVD
Binary-1 20190311-05:00]/ buster contrib main

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main

deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main

deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main contrib

deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main
contrib

I guess you can always argue if this is a bug.
But I will claim that by far the waste majority of Debian users want to
have the selected mirror in the installation to be the primary repository,
not the, in many ways, useless CD-ROM.
Wouldn't it be more fair that the very few that actually want the CD-ROM to
be the primary repositor, are the one who has to modify the sources.list?
And not the waste majority of the users.
And if they don't, they can just skip selecting a mirror in the
installation, and then the CD-ROM should be the repository.

Bug#925048: debootstrap: --keyring= Release signed by unknown key (key id EF0F382A1A7B6500)

Package: debootstrap

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

--variant minbase --arch amd64 --make-tarball=debian_amd64 stable

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
E: Release signed by unknown key (key id EF0F382A1A7B6500)

debootstrap --download-only --force-check-gpg  --variant minbase --arch amd64 
--make-tarball=debian_amd64 stable /root/dbs_debian_amd64
