Interesting,

The only entry in Synaptic for DHCP was kea-dhcp6-server.  Synaptic 
installed:


kea-common (1.1.0-1)
kea-dhcp6-server (1.1.0-1)
liblog4cplus-1.1-9 (1.1.2-3.2)

Now, when I do  apt update I get:

And this particular routing table does not have it.
What it does have is the usual link-local /64 route, which cannot be
used to send packets to 2001::/96.


But, looking at all this once more, I see a discrepancy - "ip a" shows
Unpredictable Network Name, yet "ip ro" shows conventional "wlan0".

No. In SLAAC the router often sends its linklocal address as
gateway. The IP address of the gateway has only one use : to get it's
mac address (same in IPv4 or IPv6), thus link local is OK.

I do not understand the netcfg/disable... notation.  It is not described in the

http://www.fifi.org/doc/debconf-doc/tutorial.html . In any case, the graphical 
installer asks the question.



Yet what installer *does* have that's /proc.

So, wait for the network autoconfiguration, switch to root vt, invoke:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6


This fixed my problem.  I tried again to install, and set disable_ipv6 to 1 
before starting the step "Install the base system".  The installation of 
stretch/Xfce i386 was successful!  After booting, I set 
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="ipv6.disable=1 net.ifnames=0" in /etc/default/grub and ran 
update-grub. (Maybe the net.ifnames=0 is not essential.) I also installed 
rt2860.bin needed for the WiFi.  I recovered the /home partition from an earlier 
installation of openSUSE 12.2, re-booted and I now have my EeePC running with 
stretch.  Thanks to all who commented in this thread.


I will not mark the subject [SOLVED] since the underlying problem of why wget

I looked up the router (I've now lost the page and the router
references--but it did mention "supported protocols IPv4 + IPv6" as
indicated below).

At any rate: 

 if you have an IPv6 router or a DHCP server on your local network, but
 want to avoid them because e.g. they give wrong answers, you can use
 the parameter netcfg/disable_autoconfig=true to prevent any automatic
 configuration of the network (neither v4 nor v6) and to enter the
 information manually.

I naïvely choose that component because I assumed it provided the "choose a

Choosing this component has the considerable advantage that it gets to the

 ftp.uni-stuttgart.de   debian.mirror.lrz.de  mirror.ox.ac.uk
 opensource.nchc.org.tw debian.mirrors.easynet.fr

They all connect and then hang on "HTTP request sent, awaiting response...".

I tried ftp.uni-kl.de which gets as far as "200 OK" and then hangs.

I tried debian.mirrors.ovh.net which succeeds with retries.  At the step "Select 
and install software", the only option is [X] Standard system utilities. 
Nothing else.


I choose the default linux kernel, and when finally I boot the new installation, 
I get many ACPI errors and then fall into initramfs which offers me Busybox.


I tried again with debian.mirrors.ovh.net and saw on Ctl-Alt-F4

 main-menu[346]: (process:4174): unknown udeb stretch-support

Is this a sign that something is wrong?

It gets better. Force wget to send GET instead of HEAD, and it works:

$ wget -O /dev/null https://wiki.debian.org

Busybox's wget fails, of course as https is not implemented there:

while wget (and curl) has been updated, apparently trying to fix a bug or 
attack vector, several times in the last 6 weeks or so.

So this would appear to be a busybox problem from my point of view? Or 
possibly a broken link as I get that same pair of errors regardless of 
the machine on my home net that I initiate this query from:

wget -S --spider https://wiki.debian.org

And this is the response I get from here in WV,USA:

Found 1 broken link.

https://wiki.debian.org/

Converted 0 files in 0 seconds.

So either wget has been banned, or the file does not exist.

Sounds reasonable until one realises the installer uses a busybox
version of wget. And busybox hasn't changed during the lifetime of
9.x.x.

Much the same as anyone else. But who cares. This subthread was
hijacked here:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2018/02/msg00755.html

Forget the wiki. And as Brian said, forget this option:

Installer components to load:
[ ] choose-mirror: Choose mirror to install from (menu item)

Work your way through the main menu …

  │  Choose language
  │  Configure the keyboard
  │  Detect and mount CD-ROM
  │  Load installer components from CD
  │  Detect network hardware
  │  Configure the network
  │  Set up users and passwords
  │  Configure the clock
  │  Detect disks
  │  Partition disks
  │  Install the base system
  │  Configure the package manager

… and don't think about mirrors until you get to this point.

  │  Select and install software
  │  Install the GRUB boot loader on a hard disk
  │  Finish the installation

Cheers,
David.

I get the same here in Iceland, IP address is 193.109.xxx.xxx (AS Number
is 24743) and I can browse the wiki just fine.

What do people in the US get?

The install media may be dated, so if it will boot at all, the first 
thing should be to update it and see if wget is replaced and now works.

Yes, works great even from a rock64 out in the garage.
Do a "sudo route -n" and see if you get a valid gateway, "UG" address.
Then describe your hardware arrangement precisely please

Is route then within the users $PATH? It is not on that particular 
stretch machine, so I either have to know the full path, or use sudo to 
execute it.

I had this kind of problem with free (i.e. proxad) repository which isn't any 
more (bust was in 2016) on the mirror list,

First, please don't get me wrong, but can you provide the output of
(regular box, of course):

wget -S --spider https://wiki.debian.org

There have been some reports from people using your ISP that this page
does not work for them somehow, and I'm too lazy to travel to France to
check it out :)

Returning to your problem, I'd like to propose using Debian LiveCD [1]
on the problematic EeePC as LiveCD has some proper network
troubleshooting tools, namely tcpdump.

An file produced by:

tcpdump -w /tmp/proxad.pcap -ni any udp port 53 or udp port 5353 \
or tcp port 80

while running 

wget http://debian.proxad.net/debian/dists/stretch/Release -O /dev/null

would be invaluable in solving this out.

Using David's "offline" keyword, I tried a quick "apt-cache search
offline files". Received back a few things, but "syrep" stood out near
the top (description left whole because of so many perks):

"Description-en: A generic file repository synchronization tool
 syrep is a generic file repository synchronization tool. It may be used to
 synchronize large file hierarchies bidirectionally by exchanging patch files.
 Syrep is truely peer-to-peer, no central servers are involved.
 Synchronizations between more than two repositories are supported. The patch
 files may be transferred via offline media, e.g. removable hard disks or
 compact discs.
 .
 Files are tracked by their message digests, currently MD5. The following file
 operations are tracked in the snapshot files: creation, deletion,
 modification, creation of new hard or symbolic links, renaming. (The latter is
 nothing more than a new hard link and removal of the old file). syrep doesn't
 distinguish between soft and hard links. In fact even copies of files are
 treated as the same. Currently, syrep doesn't synchronize file attributes like
 access modes or modification times.
 .
 Syrep was written to facilitate the synchronization of two large digital music
 repositories without direct network connection. Patch files of several
 gigabytes are common in this situation.
 .
 Syrep is able to cope with 64 bit file sizes. (LFS)
 .
 Syrep is optimized for speed. It may make use of a message digest cache to
 accelerate the calculation of digests of a whole directory hierarchy"

Sounds interesting even if it doesn't help.. :)

It depends on how close you want those mirrors to be. If they are 
absolutely identical:


ln -s ../testB /home/user/testA

will create a symbolic link between the two directories. You can 'cd' 
into either testA or testB and see identical files, changes happen 
immediately etc. A symbolic link essentially allows you to give a 
directory a second name.


If this is for backup purposes and you want to periodically bring testB 
up-to-date with testA, then rsync is your best choice:


rsync -avP --delete /home/user/testA /home/user/testB

This is a one-way synchronisation. testB becomes identical to testA, and 
any changes in testB are lost. If you need two-way synchronisation 
(testA and testB have changed, but need to come to a common state), then 
look at the "unison" package.

However, be prepared for problems if you run a version of
apt-cacher-ng as old as squeeze's.

I still run apt-cacher-ng on a wheezy machine and have had to switch
between the backports and backports-sloppy versions, currently the
latter, 0.9.1-1~bpo7+1. The main failures have been (1) expiration of
old packages¹, (2) new compression schemes² for Packages files, (3)
new InRelease files and (4) servicing apt-listbugs³ searches. I use it
for wheezy and jessie, but have made no attempt to use it with
stretch; is that when hashed indexing started?

I don't know how many of these issues will affect a constituency of
totally squeeze PCs; I guess that depends on whether the mirrors
being used have been updating their apt methods, and if there are
squeeze backports.

¹ie the archive grows for ever.
²eg .xz and/or .bz2 files.
³my current command sequence for upgrading is the unwieldy
# apt-get -o Acquire::http::Proxy="http://192.168.1.19:3142/; update
# apt-get -d -o Acquire::http::Proxy="http://192.168.1.19:3142/; upgrade

I don't think it's a good idea to setup a real local mirror,
as that means you'll download the entire archive, which is
likely going to be a _lot_ more stuff (especially if you
download all available architectures) than upgrading each
machine individually.

What you'll rather want is to setup a local proxy server
that'll cache the packages. This way you'll only download
what you actually need, but you'll also only download it
once.

I can recommend the apt-cacher-ng package for that.

First question: why are you using squeeze instead of stretch?

(There are occasionally good reasons.)

The easiest way to get a mirror working is to use the apt-mirror
package.

Install it on a machine with enough disk space, along with a
webserver.

Edit /etc/apt/mirrors.list 

If you really need squeeze, you'll need to get packages from

Hello Team,



Good Day… !!!



I am new to Debian and I want some help on Local Debain Mirror.



I am using (Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.10 (squeeze)) in my environment and I want
to update all systems using one local mirror.

I tried to configure local mirror and followed some tutorials to configure
local mirror :-



https://www.debian.org/mirror/ftpmirror

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/338723/setup-debian-mirrors-after-

But no luck.



I would appreciate if you could please share the steps to create local
mirror for Debain 6 squeeze.


Thanks in advance for your help.

The svvedes have taken over this country and it will be in

noticed. The debian mirror was a primary target.
Alternatively, they could be restoring the server and

a bug in apt-mirror ??

[Abdelkader Belahcene]

Hi everybody

I 've written a bash script and 2 small python files,  to fix a problem I
found in apt-mirror. I don't know if I don't use correctly apt-mirror.
I give my problem  and the script which solve the problem.

before that I don't understand this error ???:

Use of uninitialized value $config{"options"} in pattern match (m//) at
/usr/bin/apt-mirror line 300,  line 17.

The problem:   When I run  the apt-mirror  it gives the size to download to
update my local repos

if I run it again it gives the same (or approxiamativl) size to download,
so noting is added to my repos, when I check I found many packages not
updated. Here is the example ( just a part of the output)
:

It is not necessary to check the checksum since the remote site (official)
is supposed correct.

Originally I created the installation media using the Rufus tool, but have now 
been told that doesn't work well. For this current media, I am not sure as I 
did not create it myself.

By changing the DNS servers do you mean changing the DNS server in the install 
or changing the DNS servers of my router?

I was also told that it could be another bad installation, but I do not have access to another device that can make me a new bootable USB drive so making a new drive is not an option.I am open to any suggestion on how to fix this. At the moment, it is frustrating to be trying to solve this issue for a total of 3 days and almost my entire weekend.Thanks.

I ended up opening a virtual console and fixing the network manually.
Specifically, I did:

~ # ip link set eth0 up
~ # ip addr add 10.0.2.16/24 dev eth0
~ # ip route delete default
~ # ip route add default via 10.0.2.1
~ # ping mirror.it.ubc.ca  # to verify

After that the install proceeded normally.

I apologize for the double-posting.  I didn't see the first post go up
so I thought I had to subscribe to post.

It looks like it actually is a network issue.  I opened a different
console on the VM and ping and wget both timed out.  I don't
understand why the dnsmasq server works and the newly installing VM
doesn't when they are on the same network.

How can I resolve this?

Install Not Allowing Any Mirror

[Stephen Rasku]

Hi,

I am trying to setup a VM to install Jessie.  This VM and a dnsmasq server
are on a private network and I am installing the VM using the dnsmasq
server as a PXE server.  The install starts but I am having trouble
specifying a mirror.  I am choosing Canadian mirrors but all that I tried
are reporting "mirror does not support the specified release (jessie)".

The mirrors I tried are:
- ftp3.nrc.ca
- debian.mirror.rafal.ca
- debian.mirror.its.dal.ca
- ftp.ca.debian.org

I don't think it's a connectivity issue.  The dnsmasq server can ping those
sites and it's on the same virtual network.

How can I debug this?  Could this be caused by the release of Debian 9?


Thanks in advance,

Stephen

apt update problem when it works with local apt-mirror repository

But now problem is for  local repository .
I install or update a packets on my local computer with Debian 64 8.6 Unstable 
through 2 stages.
At first, through apt-mirror (0.5.1-1 or 0.5.2-1) i update  local repository on 
separated hard disk. At next, i install or update packets through apt, aptitude 
or synaptic from local repository. When i work in Debian Stable through  apt 
(1.0.9.8.3),  aptitude (0.6.11-1+b1) or  synaptic (0.81.2) it is all right.
But if i use more higher versions all is worst. Now I use:

apt (1.4~beta2)
aptitude (0.8.4-1)

Re: netinstall amd64 was unable to find a usable jessie mirror

[Paul Dufresne]

I just checked on the USB key, what disk it really is:
Debian GNU/Linux 8.6.0 "Jessie" - Official Multi-architecture
amd64/i386 NETINST #1 20160917-18:46

netinstall amd64 was unable to find a usable jessie mirror

[Paul Dufresne]

I downloaded netinst AMD 64 bits and made an installation on a laptop today.
I believe it was
http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.6.0/amd64/iso-cd/debian-8.6.0-amd64-netinst.iso
I choose 64 bit install (that's for a uefi laptop  [with no more csm]
and that's was about the sixth distro iso I tried)
and that's was the first one to work (except for erfind and gparted).

Anyway, when it came time to choose a mirror, I tried 6 or 7 in Canada
(where I am) and 6 or 7 in
USA, none was working. Ctrl-Alt-F4, did show, a wget ... | grep
^something, then a message that
no valid jessie image was found on the server. I am sorry, it is not very clear.

I finished installation, then added a /etc/source.list for stable with
main contrib non-free, and then was able
after apt-get select, to do a sudo tasksel.

So I got around but still, wanted to share that something seems to go wrong.

No problem.

I've read that link a few times, and I am not sure what you've seen that 
seen that makes you think that, I can only think its the below bit of 
text, but I think this is only for those who are wanting to create a 
mirror perhaps, but I am not 100% sure.


That being said however I think it's perfectly fine to use 
ftp.jp.debian.org, mainly due to the fact that the debian iso all have 
ftp.uk.debian.org as the primary mirror for the net install cd's, and 
this is all I ever use, and ftp.jp.debian.org is also a primary debian 
mirror. See http://ftp.jp.debian.org/debian/README.mirrors.html


I don't think you've been naughty at all.

You can use "git clone --depth 1" to get just the latest revision. Most
of the space is taken by the files, though, not the history. Depth-1
clone takes 178 MB and full clone 371 MB (all the way to year 1985).

I'm not sure what you mean. Emacs supports these toolkits:

--with-x-toolkit=KITuse an X toolkit (KIT one of: yes or gtk, gtk2,
gtk3, lucid or athena, motif, no)

(See configure --help)

I use libgtk2.0-dev (for GTK2) but those who prefer GTK3 would install
libgtk-3-dev instead. The "configure" script will detect what you have
installed. See its output.

I seem to have on older version of lucid Emacs installed and will go
with lucid.

Thanks for the approach.  I have 2 questions.

I don't want to clone the whole repository, would a shallow clone also
work?

I use xfce and I believe I don't have Gnome libs installed I think.
 Would that require any changes to the configure option above?


Thanks once again

There is no official (maybe what you mean by "canonical") repository of 
Debian that contains the latest version of Emacs. The main repository 
obviously doesn't have it, and the Backports don't have it either: 
.


Compiling Emacs is not difficult anyway.

That's a good choice and nothing to be afraid of. In Debian 8 it would
go like this:


sudo apt-get install git build-essential libgtk2.0-dev \

./configure --with-x-toolkit=gtk

make bootstrap

checkinstall would be a good idea if you want to be able to
remove/upgrade the program.

mirror key problem

[Glenn English]

I have a partial Debian mirror "across the room" so I can quickly do a 
netinstall or grab a package. Wheezy's already there; this morning, I went to 
add Jessie and oldstable (I'm on a T1, and Ethernet is significantly faster :-).

mkdebmirror says, among other things:

Looks to me like I have a valid Wheezy key, but not Jessie or oldstable.

I've looked on the 'Net and in Martin Krafft's book. And I tried (from the 
mkdebmirror source):

> gpg --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg --export \
> | gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring trustedkeys.gpg --import

it's output:

[apt-mirror] Cohabitation Wheezy / Jessie et netinstall

[Yanis Boucherit]

Bonjour à tous,

j'ai un petit soucis en ce moment suite à la sortie de Jessie.
Je vous fait le topo :
On a un parc de serveurs d'environ 200 machines, la plupart sous Wheezy.
Pour les installer, nous passons via un boot PXE sur une image netboot, 
avec des dépôts locaux hébergés sur une machine sur notre LAN.
Récemment, j'ai ajouté Jessie à la liste des repos d'apt-mirror, sauf 
que Wheezy est encore présent en tant que stable.
Quand j'ai voulu installer une machine Jessie, avec l'image netboot qui 
va bien, voilà le résultat dans le syslog de l'install :


 broken mirror: invalid Suite or Codename in Release file for stable.

En gros, je pense que l'installeur essaye de récupérer nos dépôts 
stables (qui du coup correspondent encore à Wheezy, et non pas à 
Jessie).
Comment pourrais-je dire à l'installer Debian de récupérer le dépôt : 
'deb ftp://ftp.mylan/debian/ jessie' et non pas 'deb 
ftp://ftp.mylan/debian/ stable' (qui correspond donc à Wheezy).
Le problème c'est que via apt-mirror je ne peux pas encore passer Jessie 
en stable, ou virer les dépôts Wheezy, puisque nous n'avons pas encore 
programmé de mises à jour sur tous nos serveurs.


Une piste, des idées ?

Merci d'avance :)

Re: Grub2 (Wheezy) booting off either disk in a RAID1 mirror

I guess so. The something else would have to understand Linux md
software RAID, so it probably would be another GRUB. There is a cleaner
way to boot GRUB from another GRUB than chainloader : multiboot the
core.img file in /boot/grub.

However a software RAID device does not match any BIOS device, so I
doubt that grub-install would accept it.

Re: Grub2 (Wheezy) booting off either disk in a RAID1 mirror

  How can I configure Grub2 correctly such that I can boot with either disk

 I think you should be able to install grub (that is, run grub-install)
 for both devices (grub-install /dev/sda ; grub-install /dev/sdb # for
 example).

Using grub-install /dev/sda ; grub-install /dev/sdb should definitely
work for both disks.

It is definitely good to test.  Andrew I applaud you for doing the
testing of the installation.  That is awesome.

If all else fails and it were me I would swap the cables so that the
order of sda and sdb are reversed.  Then use grub-install /dev/sda to
write the mbr onto the new sda drive.  Then swap them back, although
that shouldn't matter at that point.  It is good to know that you can
use the debian-installer in rescue mode to boot and chroot to the
system in order to run grub-install there even if the BIOS booting
drives won't boot.

Según estos datos parece que sí lo admite:

Pero quizá lo hayan cambiado, prueba con otro mirror y revisa siempre los 
registros de ftpsync.

 No sé a qué te refieres con sistema híbrido (?).

 Sistema hibrido son tambien llamados FakeRaid, Se configura Raid por
 Bios pero lo administra el SO (por eso hibrido) son mucho màs economicos
 que una controladora de RAID.

Entiendo el significado de fakeraid, peor nunca lo había oído nombrar 
como sistema híbrido.

Ahora bien, ojo con los raid porque el hecho de que se configure por BIOS 
no implica que sea fakeraid, hay muchas controladoras hardware raid que 
también necesitan configurarse desde la BIOS de la placa base por eso 
conviene saber qué chipset monta exactamente esa controladora que tienes, 
no vaya a ser que no sea tan fake como pienses :-)

  Debian no lo reconoce, estuve leyendo que hay que especificar algunos
  parámetros para que funcione.

 Pues como no seas un poco más claro con las características del
 servidor,
 poco te voy a poder decir.
 
  Es un servidor que trae la posibilidad de establecer Raid por bios,
 pero no trae controladora. No es plenamente un Raid por Hardware. No se
 con que otro nombre se lo conoce, en ingles se lo llamo mucho FakeRaid.

Infórmate bien del modelo exacto de chipset que monta la placa para el 
raid y una vez que tengas los datos podrás tomar una decisión formada.

  ¿que opinan? Mejor realizar un Raid mirror a traves de LVM o tomarse
  el trabajo de usar el sistema híbrido que trae el equipo

 No me he enterado de mucho pero sí te puedo decir que LVM no es un
 sistema RAID (!) son dos cosas distintas.

 LVM no es un sistema de RAID, es sistema de administracion de Discos y
 espacio. 

Exactamente, eso es lo que te decía, que una cosa no tiene que ver con la 
otra. 

 Si lo que se puede hacer con LVM es hacer mirror entre
 Volumenes logicos. Todo por software, administrado desde el mismo Linux.

La pregunta entiendo que sería más bien si usar un raid por software (md) 
junto con LVM porque LVM únicamente no te aporta ninguna capa de 
seguridad (redundancia) en los datos.

 Mi duda es si alguno tiene experiencia en estos sistemas de Raid
 hibridos / fakeraids / raid por bios (como quieran llamarle), no es lo
 más recomendable, lo ideal es usar una controladora de Raid. 

Sí, que los evites a toda costa pero antes asegúrate de que se trata 
efectivamente de una controladora de ese tipo.

 Mi pregunta era alguno tenia experiencia en espejar volumenes logicos a
 traves de LVM
 
 o tienen alguna otra herramienta para Raid por software en caliente que
 valga la pena investigar.  No se si aclara..

Si no tienes una controladora raid por hardware y quieres/necesitas raid 
1 usa md para el raid. Si además quieres añadir LVM para que te permita 
una mayor flexibilidad en la gestión de los volúmenes, adelante pero con 
LVM conviene saber lo que se hace, vamos, que todo lo que tenga relación 
con la administración de los discos duros puede conllevar pérdida de 
datos, también md.

During my installs, one of the options in the 'select mirror' dialog
is  a way to manually enter the url to your mirror.

​Japp, så var det. An​tagligen att jag hade kvar mappar som raderats från
mirror.list.

Jag fick fel vid uppdatering av jessie. Mismatch av checksummor.
Jag döpte om mirror och skel till *.bak. Kommenterade bort allt utom Jessie
i mirror.list. Kopierade över Jessie till ny mirror och skel. Raderade
gamla contents och packages. Gjorde manuell nerladdning av dem. Nu
fungerade apt-get update från klient och apt-mirror på servern gav inget
fel.

Bara att lägga tillbaks övriga repon och kolla att inte flet kommer
tillbaks, när allt inaktuellt är raderat.
