If properly directed (which can be difficult -- the attention-deficit-afflicted don't hav that much control over it) it's what enables someone to focus on tracking down a bug for hours if necessary, forgetting all else. Attention deficit is a rather paradoxical syndrome. -- hendrik ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

[DNG] some issues with the minimal-live iso as a rescue tool
Hi everybody. This week I have downloaded and used the 'minimal-live' iso image of devuan to rescue a machine that stopped booting. The problem started after a debian/wheezy to devuan/jessie migration. After rebooting, grub was broken. I have later looked at the apt logs, and the only unexpected thing I see is that: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-update-grub: Generating grub configuration file ... Configuration setting "activation/thin_check_executable" unknown. Configuration setting "activation/thin_check_executable" unknown. Configuration setting "activation/thin_check_executable" unknown.

Configuration setting "activation/thin_check_executable" unknown. hecho I downloaded the 'minimal-live' from ascii and used it to boot from USB. I found that the packages mdadm (for RAID) and lvm2 (for LVM) were not installed in the 'minimal-live', so I had to install them prior to use them. This would have been an embarrasing situation in case I had no network connection, but fortunately it was not the case. So I think those packages should be ready-to-use in the minimal-live, specially as it is announced as a rescue tool. RAID and LVM are not something 'rare', I guess. I would report a bug, but I don't know how to do it. ¿Is there a 'Package' related to the build of the 'minimal-live' iso? ¿How to check if there are bugs already related to this? Also, I would have appreciated to find in the web an exhaustive list of packages installed in every iso. ¿Is there that list anywhere?
