About preseed variable export

[Frederic Bonnard]

Hi all,
I'm having issues with an iso I built and that does not seem to take
into account my kernel command line preseed settings.
I saw on a working iso that the preseed settings get exported to the
shell I open to debug, but this is not the case for the buggy iso.
As I saw there is a env2debconf binary that does propagate the settings
to debconf, I assumed that I'm missing the export of my preseed settings
into the env or at least, that this export not being done is somehow
linked to my initial issue.
I grep-ed the is for 'proc/cmdline' 'preseed_aliases' and things that
could bring me to the parsing of the command line and export to the env. but
didn't find anything...
/lib/debian-installer-startup.d/ looked interesting but I didn't find
what I'm looking for there.
Is busybox, the kernel, .. responsible for this ?
Can someone give me an hint on what I'm missing ?
Thanks a lot,

F.

Sorry about that :-/

> You seem to indicate that you need to use IPv4 to access the nameserver? 

Yes, I actually was given only static IPv4 parameters to connect the
network (and no DHCPv4 server is available on it).

> Is the real failure you report that it did not configure IPv4 correctly? 
> I.e. didn't show a prompt and continued without it?

Well yes, at least I don't mind it tries to probe for DHCPv[46] (that
makes sense) but if it fails like it seems to do here, shouldn't it
propose a manual setup? In that case, I would have continue with a
static IPv4 configuration and the installation.

I managed to get the manual setup menus, by changing the priority of the
installer, also undoing the IPv6 (if I remember correctly) and so on but
that's not straightforward.

Also when it asks for the nameserver in the ncurses gui, how am I
supposed to know that it's trying to do an IPv6 setup ? (tell me if I'm
wrong, but given the ip output, it seems it was in the middle of an IPv6
setup after having failed the IPv4 dhcp probing and thus expecting an
IPv6 nameserver)

> Is a DHCPv4 server

There is no DHCPv4 server on this network. So the installer correctly
failed that part of the setup.

I don't know, I've not been provided that information, only IPv4 static
configuration parameters.
Does the fact that SLAAC autoconfiguration worked means that there is
some IPv6 network available at some point ?
Also,  I guess  that  the  installer was  expecting  an IPv6  nameserver
because  it did  SLAAC autoconfiguration  after failing  DHCPv4. Do  you
confirm that ?

If so, shouldn't the installer gui let the user know for which kind of
network setup it asks a parameter (such as the nameserver) ?

Having opal-prd installed by default on openpower machines

[Frederic Bonnard]

Hi,
I'm not sure debian-boot is the right place to ask this, so sorry if I'm
making a bit of noise.
On Openpower machines, it would be nice to have opal-prd package
installed at install time because it provides opal-prd daemon which load
and run the OpenPower  firmware's Processor Recovery Diagnostics binary.
This is responsible for runtime maintenance of Power hardware.
The criteria is the existence of the directory
/sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ibm,opal/diagnostics 
I already asked about it for Ubuntu :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/skiboot/+bug/1555904/comments/6
but I'm not sure this enablement will be done in the same place on both
distros.
What would be the best place to implement this check and then add
opal-prd in the list of packages to install.
Thanks for any tips,

F.

Already tried and the issue doesn't appear on this one.
FTR, here are the tests ran on the isos on ppc64el :
http://ftp.unicamp.br/pub/ppc64el/DAT/
With full history, we could see that the problem popped out July 12th
( debian-testing-ppc64el-netinst.iso md5sum 61c40714e30b19c53866ef0947a6e33b )

Does that mean that there is a higher possibility that screen is the problem
? :)
What about the option ?
Thank you Roger,

Re: Screen support (was: Next d-i alpha release: late June)

[Frederic Bonnard]

Hi Roger/all,
I see that on some daily isos
(  http://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/current/)
screen seems to be activated by default.  I'd like to know if there is a way
to disable it as this was discussed.
This question is related to : 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=834601 .
Note : I've not tried this on a another arch though.
Regards,

Bug#834601: installation-reports

[Frederic Bonnard]

Hey,
I'm wondering if this could be related to screen being now used during
default installation type (newt here).
Is there a way to disable screen use to check is this issue is screen related ?

Re: Debian/ppc64el images being tested daily

Hi,

> 
> http://wiki.qemu.org/Main_Page

I think, the goal is to test on real hardware. There are several lines of code
implied in the installation process and also in the life of the OS (maybe more
tests will be added) that have "if" based on the architecture and also the
level of virtualization (and maybe more)
We had bugs happening on some hardware and not equivalent VMs or the reverse.
So we don't want to make assumptions even if it's far easier to automate VMs :)

Bug#767487: Acknowledgement (debian-installer: virtio support for powerpc cdrom/netboot installs)

[Frederic Bonnard]

Anyone for this one ? :)
Once again, I hit this. On a ppc64 vm, as it's not an official arch, there no 
iso
available and for installing I use netboot, but without virtio support I don't
have the network device recognized and I can't netboot. For now, I had to
fallback to an ethernet device based on spapr-vlan.
Are there some reason that could prevent that patch from being accepted
? (space limitation etc ..)
Thank you,

Fred

Bug#767487: debian-installer: virtio support for powerpc cdrom/netboot installs

[Frederic Bonnard]

Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal

User: debian-powe...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: powerpc

Dear Maintainer,
virtio modules are more and more used in VMs and it would be nice to have those
into the netboot and cdrom installers for powerpc on which there are not at the
moment. I'm currently in need of these for ppc64 testing.
On ppc64el these were already added in a previous patch (#754093) I sent but I
should have think of powerpc too.
Thank you for your help,

F.

Bug#754093: debian-installer: ppc64el support

[Frederic Bonnard]

Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i patch
User: debian-powe...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: ppc64el

Dear Maintainer,

hi, here is a patch from Ubuntu to add support of ppc64el.
I just changed grub-cdrom.cfg to remove any d-i option on the kernel command 
line.
I added virtio-modules to support VMs with virtio which is good to have for 
development.
Thank you,

F.

Bug#752410: libdebian-installer: ppc64el support

[Frederic Bonnard]

Hi Ben,
actually the use of quilt/patch didn't handle the link between 
subarch-ppc64el-linux.c
and subarch-powerpc-linux.c . Sorry.
I redid the patch using git.
Compared to Ubuntu, this time I also added PowerNV so that is it handled in the 
platform
list and was enclined to return chrp_ibm but I would need your confirmation on
that, I'm not sure of what hides behind that specific term.
As far as I know for now, ppc64el is available in guests (platform: pSeries)
and ppc64el P8 hosts will have plateform: PowerNV so that should cover all.
Thanks for your comments,

Fred

  Dear Maintainer,
  
  here is a patch from Ubuntu for ppc64el support in libdebian-installer.
 
 This is copy-pasta from powerpc and most of it is useless for ppc64el.
 If you want to share the implementation across multiple Debian
 architectures, then share it instead of copying.

 Well, in ubuntu that was done in 27ubuntu1 upload by Colin Watson, and
 merged into debian with upload 29 by bubulle as off 22nd March 2014
 and synced into Utopic. Version 29 is already in testing.
 
 I believe this bug report has already been resolved.
