Bug#1055806: installation-reports: Installer doesn't recognize laptop's SSD, but calamares does

[Pokoz Martinez]

Hi Cyril and Pascal,

Thank you both for the fast response.

Cyril, I have just tested the .iso you attached to the bug report you
referred to, and indeed that installer detects my UFS disk no problem!

Thank you again so much for the fast response and for all the work you do.
I will rest assured now that this problem is known, and hopefully this
report also contributed my small grain of sand to the Debian effort!!

I hope you have a great rest of day,

Jessie.

How about:

Erm, astute readers will realise the 4th and 11th are Saturdays in
November, not December. The correct proposals should be:

  2nd December (better for candence, no-go for me)
  9th December (more likely suitable in practice)


I am available any of those days, but I think for now there's no task 
for webmasters in point releases.


Donald (as press delegate) didn't accept my proposal in 
https://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2023/07/msg00014.html saying that 
the publicity team would care about all those tasks (I asked him to 
reply to my message publicly but it didn't happen).


It seems indeed they handled the web part the last point releases, so I 
assumed everybody is ok with the current status. Hence my no-reply about 
12.3 until now.


If the DPL or delegated people prefer otherwise (i.e. that the web team 
to care about any part of the workflow), please state it in public and 
I'll do my best.


Kind regards,
