Re: Kernel Config file for Debian Squeeze Install Disc
Sven, AFAIK the kernel in the installer is split into many small packages from the regular linux-image package. So the possible differences are version skews when a newer kernel hits the archive, and missing modules that are not packaged for the installer. You are right. I discovered that the pata-modules-* package that ships with Debian Install disc, did not have the driver module for my RDC PATA controller and hence it failed to detect it. The thing that I find surprising is that the kernel itself (2.6.32-5-486) has the support for the controller: CONFIG_PATA_RDC=m So why does it have to depend on packages like pata-modules to detect the IDE interface. Can't the kernel detect the type (deviceid) of IDE interface and load the appropriate module (from it's initrd?) I guess may be I do not fully understand the installation mechanism. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

The debian-installer CD for i386 is currently using the kernel from linux-image-2.6.32-5-486. You can download that package and mount/extract the ISO and compare files. ./boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-486 from the package should match install.i386/vmlinuz from the ISO.

Re: Kernel config
ich möchte mir einen kleinen Server unter Debian aufsetzen. Er soll folgende Dienste bereitstellen: SMB, Mail, Web, FTP und eine auf IPTables basierende Firewall haben. Auch möchte ich ihn als DSL-Router einsetzen, sodass mein internes Netzwerk über ihn auf das Internet zugreifen kann. Denk' drann, dass es besser wäre die Router/Firewall funktionalität davon zu trennen. Aber das war ja nicht die Frage ;-) Meine Frage lautet nun, was wäre eine sinnvolle Kernel config um das alles zu ermöglichen? Was ist unbedingt notwendig und was kann ich getrost raus schmeißen? Ich würde mich freuen, wenn jemand ein paar nützliche Infos dazu hat. Kernel Version kann ein 2.4.25 oder ein 2.6.5 sein. Wenn es für dich so 'ne Eierlegende Wollmilchsau werden soll, würde einen Standardkernel nehmen. SO viel Ram/Geschwindigkeit kann man nun auch wieder nicht sparen/herauskitzeln. Hat auch den Vorteil, dass ggf. ein Update des Kernels ohne viel Stress machen kannst. Ansonsten gilt: Die beim booten benötigten Treiber rein, der Rest als Modul (z.B ISDN, SCSI Emulation oder die exotischen Filesystemtreiber) Naja, ich mag eben Debian auf so 08/15 Servern, weils einfach läuft.

Meine Frage lautet nun, was wäre eine sinnvolle Kernel config um das alles zu ermöglichen? Was ist unbedingt notwendig und was kann ich getrost raus schmeißen? Das einzige, wofür du in der Kernel-config beachten mußt, um das zu ermöglichen, sind die Netfilter für iptables. Dabei, falls du Masquerading haben willst (mehrere Rechner gehen über den Debian-Server ins Netz) auch die Masquerading Option. Alles andere sind Programme, die du installieren kannst, die haben aber mit dem Kernel nichts zu tun. Die restliche Config hängt von deiner Hardware (board, Netzwerkkarten, usw.) ab. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn jemand ein paar nützliche Infos dazu hat. Kernel Version kann ein 2.4.25 oder ein 2.6.5 sein. Zu 2.6.X kann ich nicht viel sagen, habe aber in der Shorewall Mailingliste gelesen, das iptables unter 2.4 besser sein sollen.

Meine Frage lautet nun, was wäre eine sinnvolle Kernel config um das alles zu ermöglichen? Was ist unbedingt notwendig und was kann ich getrost raus schmeißen? Der Kernel hat damit, ob ein Rechner als Mailserver oder als Workstation eingesetzt wird, noch recht wenig zu tun, viel wichtiger ist eine sichere Konfiguration der angebotenen Dienste. Einfach wie üblich nur das einkompilieren, was deine Hardware und deine Dateisysteme erfordern und natürlich an die iptables-Module denken. Oft wird für exponierte Server die Verwendung des Grsecurity-Patches empfohlen. Der genauso oft zu hörende Tipp, auf Modulunterstützung zu verzichten, schafft hingegen wenig mehr als Scheinsicherheit (Stichwort /dev/kmem). Wenn du zusätzlich zum Unix-Rechtemodell role-based oder mandatory access control willst, könnten rsbac oder SELinux was für dich sein. Ansonsten ist noch das Securing Debian Manual (Paket harden-doc) zu nennen, da sind viele nützliche Tipps enthalten.

Re: Kernel config
Hallo Torsten, Torsten Pfahl, 05.04.2004 (d.m.y): Meine Frage lautet nun, was wäre eine sinnvolle Kernel config um das alles zu ermöglichen? Das kannst vermutlich nur Du selbst entscheiden, denn wir wissen nicht, was fuer Hardware usw. Du einsetzt. - Kernelbau hat immer ein wenig von Learning by doing. ;-) Mit dem Paket kernel-package und Lektuere der zugehoerigen Doku kannst Du auf recht einfache Weise mit dpkg installierbare .deb-Pakete erzeugen - die wird man dann ggf. auch einfach wieder los...

For a non installed (only downloaded) kernel-image package, the easiest way might be to unpack it in a temporary place and look for the boot sub directory.

I picked ip_always_defrag as an example because the documentation suggests there is some advantage to having this switched on.

Can anyone help me, please! I find your question not very clear: Do you mean to say that the config script hangs at the point where you should be able to enter the address of your soundcard's IO-port? What version of the source do you use? Or do you mean that you need help finding the right address number to enter for your card? What soundcard do you have? It's neither of the above .. BTW i use kernel 2.0.29 with a SB AWE32 (SB16) The problem is: When I come to the point where I'm supposed to enter the I/O-base adress for the SB-card I choose the default-value (which is 220). But no matter what I enter the only response is 'No help page for this option yet' .. /Micke -- --- E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : [EMAIL PROTECTED] HomePage : http://mds.mdh.se/~cel95mhl PGP-Key available from : http://www.mds.mdh.se/~cel95mhl or finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---

I certainly managed to configure my mobo soundcard like that. -- David Wright, Open University, Earth Science Department, Milton Keynes MK7 6AA U.K. email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tel: +44 1908 653 739 fax: +44 1908 655 151

No matter what you enter, it gives the 'no help' message. A newer version of the kernel-source package will help (I think again).
