Difficulties with PS1.
Greetings! Why variable PS1 dose not change when set it before a command: Like this: A="a1" LANG="C.UTF-8" PS1="new" B="b2" bash --noprofile $A, $B, $LANG -changed, $PS1 - not. Works only when I explicitly set in current process. export PS1="(chroot) $PS1" Is not this syntax: VAR="..." VAR1="..." command Set an environment variables? Thank you!

> It would not work with secure boot Yes. But secure boot is usually turned off. It is a standard advice during Linux installation.
Re: install Kernel and GRUB in chroot.
sudo -i Thank you! I am unsure what UUID you mean. At Manjaro: grubx64.efi is at the sdb1 - EFI vfat /dev/sdb1 grub.cfg is at the sdb2 - crypto_LUKS /dev/sdb2 grubx64.efi contains data UUID=""a8...b7" of /dev/sdb2 which is TYPE="crypto_LUKS". `blkid` output: /dev/sdb2: UUID="a8...b7" TYPE="crypto_LUKS" PARTUUID="8...5" `strings /boot/efi/EFI/Manjaro/grub64x.efi` output: cryptomount -u a8...b7 (cryptouuid/a8...b7)/boot/grub I have a Manjaro installed, and what to migrate to Debian. That involves exploration of Booting order. In the Manjaro GRUB installation mounting point for ESP (sdb1) is: /boot/efi And the grub.cfg is /boot/grub/grub.cfg The grub.cfg located at the crypto partition sdb2. Manjaro has different GRUB installation scheme from Debian.
Re: install Kernel and GRUB in chroot.
Main question is resolved. GRUB knows how to reach grub.cfg because grubx64.efi binary has the UUID and path to grub configurations. 1. sudo blkid; 2. sudo bash 3. cd /boot/efi/EFI/Mangaro 4. strings grubx64.efi 5. And at the output of strings there is UUID and /boot/grub. Summary: GRUB installation not only involves configuration of text files, but also it involves generating data in binary grubx64.efi.
Re: install Kernel and GRUB in chroot.
> Just copy files from LiveCD (it should have EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi) to the ESP partition on the USB stick. Yep. `dd` copy partitions table. Amazing. ``` dd will simply recreate the old partition scheme, as it is a bitwise copy & applies no 'intelligence' to the operation. ``` https://askubuntu.com/a/847533
Re: install Kernel and GRUB in chroot.
> Just copy files from LiveCD (it should have EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi) to the ESP partition on the USB stick. As I understand right now `dd` command applied to a device will copy all information including partitions table. Thus: dd if=debian-xx.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M status=progress; sync Would just create a copy of device, with FileSystem and PartitionsTable.
Re: install Kernel and GRUB in chroot.
Going to read carefully. https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/amd64/ch04s03.en.html Interesting that Buster has more documentation than current release.

> Do you want to install the OS on it? Eventually no, I do not want OS on the Flash Stick. The Flash Stick is only a testing place. I want OS at the SSD. Now I am wondering how to prepare the Flash Stick to write LiveImage on it. Because I already created a GPT table on that Flash and use debootstrap. Looks like need to create a new parition and copy LiveImage there.

Re: install Kernel and GRUB in chroot.
Hi Tim. The community is so kind. So. > I'm not exactly sure what you're doing. Understand how GRUB works, to boot myself. 1. Trying to install Debian on the Flash. 2. Use it by the Debootstrap. 3. Now I want to boot using that Flash. Looks like a caught the thread. 1. ESP is a partition that stores GRUB Binary. /boot/EFI/Name/grub64.eif 2. ==>BAM<== some how that binary knows the system partition. 3. At the system partition there is a /boot/grub/grub.cfg 4. And at that /boot/grub/grub.cfg is UUID and etc. to start Booting. But the question is on the step 2. /boot/EFI/Name/grub64.efi knows where to start /boot/grub/grub.cfg that resides at the absolutely different partition. Interesting. But the question already asked. Now it possible to find the answer. Thank you!
Re: install Kernel and GRUB in chroot.
Huge thanks. Your message starts the understanding. And as well give a plenty of texts to read. > EFI/debian/grub.cfg on the EFI System Partition contains filesystem UUID where grub files reside. All parts are simple But when compounding them together become messy. In the Manjaro: /boot/EFI/Majaro/grub64x.efi - binary to start by UEFI. /boot/grub/grub.cfg - shell (?) script with configurations. /boot/vimlinuz.* - the kernel. And if call a `lsblk`. Only a /boot/efi with a binary is a separate partiton. Things become more clear.

install Kernel and GRUB in chroot.
Greetings! After: 1. Creating GPT table and GPT partition with fdisk. 2. Copy data with a debootstrap. 3. Chroot into newly creating system. I need to prepare that system for booting. 1. Install Kernel. 2. Install GRUB and Configure. 3. Add changes to UEFI to start booting. And at the point two (Install GRUB) I a little bit confused. 1. Need to create ESP, and put GRUB there. 2. Need to configure GRUB to select appropriate kernel and ramdisk. Could you help me a little bit? How to create a ESP partition and mount it to /boot? If a ESP partition a simple Partition formatted to FAT32? How GRUB would understand where to be install and where is the kernel? And the last one. If I want to step back. And just use a USB stick with predefined image, what kind of partition table I should create there MBR or GPT? Thank you!

Allocate tty1 for kernel messages
Dear Debian users, I am trying to make a following setup on Debian bullseye: * tty1 is used to display kernel messages only * tty[2-5] are allocated for login I have modified /etc/default/console-setup so that it reads: ACTIVE_CONSOLES="/dev/tty[2-5]" and rebooted. What I observe is that tty1 displays kernel messages during the boot (OK) but also ends with an invitation for login on tty1 (WRONG). How can I force that tty1 is not used for login?

Thanks for pointing out the configuration error. After fixing it everything worked like a charm. Would be very tricky for me to locate the issue... If the configuration is invalid, networking.service could probably complain about that? I would be able then to resolve the issue myself.

Re: Some services cannot start at boot time because /run or /var is not mounted
Dear Debian community, I hit the similar problem but this time with /run folder. Few services have failed to start: # systemctl status php7.0-fpm.service Jun 24 23:09:48 debian php-fpm7.0[893]: [24-Jun-2020 23:09:48] ERROR: unable to bind listening socket for address '/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock': No such file or directory (2) Jun 24 23:09:48 debian php-fpm7.0[893]: [24-Jun-2020 23:09:48] ERROR: FPM initialization failed Jun 24 23:09:48 debian systemd[1]: php7.0-fpm.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=78/CONFIG Jun 24 23:09:48 debian systemd[1]: php7.0-fpm.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

It was created/mounted correctly and there have been a lot of files/directories there. I suspect that all services that have created the necessary directory under /run were able to start normally. Few of them which relied on existence of specific directory, have failed to started. After I have replayed the corresponding instructions for tmpfiles.d, the services have started normally. I have a feeling that systemd-tmpfiles was executed before /run was mounted. Needless to note that the problem is not persistent: sometimes OS boots without a single failed service. How can I debug the problem? Thank you!

binfmt-support cannot start at boot time because /var is not mounted

KDE's Applications Launcher Menu incorrect behavior
Hello! I noticed an incorrect behavior of the KDE's Applications Launcher Menu in Debian: not all characters are printed when i type something in search field. For example, I type "kate", but "kte" has printed. Sometimes only first symbol has printed. The same behavior is in Discover application. In other applications all works correctly. It began when I have started to use standard system keyboard layouts instead of IBus. What should I do to collect more details of the incorrect behavior to help to fix it? P.S.: Debian 9 AMD64 KDE.

Hoi Paul, Alvast excuses voor mijn Nederlands -- ik hoop dat Engels is ook toelaatbaar in dit maillist. I was curios to read your blog about DVD reception, also because I tried to play with it myself few years ago and made some notes in my wiki: > https://www.centurion.link/w/software/linux#how_to_watch_dvb-t_tv_channels In general it worked, but the reception was not so good (some interruptions, no channels scanned from time to time, etc) -- perhaps I need to place antenna close to the window, but I would need few meters long antenna cable (or USB cable). And afterwards I have discovered that most (or even all) DVB-broadcasted channels are available via my wall antenna, so I put the idea into long box. I believe that all free channels are re-translated to everyone by cable (correct me if I am wrong), even if he is not subscribed to any TV-provider (like Ziggo). Second challenge was the idea to show the output to my TV, preferably without running X-Server. The only way was to use FrameBuffer (fbset utility), but unfortunately, not all players allow streaming to it, and those who claim (xine, mplayer) have not worked for me. Do you have any experience with that? -- With best regards, Dmitry
no keyboard layouts after upgrade
Hi everyone! I updated my Debian 7 and got lots of problems. The biggest one for now is that I don't have any way to switch the keyboard layouts. gnome-control-center was removed during dist-upgrade so I had to reinstall it manually. Now I set two input sources there (Russian + English), but there is no menuitem Layouts in Keyboard-Shortcuts. I found a switch to next input source, it says Shift+Space, but does not work at all. root@# cat /etc/issue Debian GNU/Linux 8 \n \l root@# cat /etc/debian_version 8.1 Thanks for your help. -- С уважением, Дмитрий А.

need help with installing WLAN package
Hi, i recently install debian sarge and right now I am trying to configure it to work with wireless USB adaptor 'netgear ma101'. I downloaded the linux-wlan-ng-0.2.3.tar.gz uncompressed it and then tried to 'make config' it however it complaned that i don't have configed kernel. Instruction that come in the package README file say that I need to have configured kernel source code for the kernel I am running. I installed debian sarge from binaries and since i am very inexperienced in linux I have no idea how to provide configured kernel code or is there an alternate way? Any help will be greatly appreciated. best regards, Dmitry Hits.

Debian lifecycle

Re: Debian lifecycle
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 First of all thanks everybody for prompt replies. I see the picture now and it makes me feel good :) So it looks like after deployment of freshly-released stable I have about 2 years in average to sleep well without dreaming of upgrades. After that I silently get latest stable from repository using, let's say, apt-get, tune/configure system and I'm done for next 2 years rough. Which seems to be a good lifecycle in comparison to, for example, fedora with stated lifecycle 6 month. Please correct me if I'm wrong with my assumptions.

It is not possible to support three distributions; supporting two simultaneously is already difficult enough. Thanks, I somehow missed that part of documentation. The stable release before Woody, called Potato, has been supported until June 30th, 2003 which was actually a little bit less than one year after the release of Woody on July 19, 2002. that's usefull statistics. Really good number for commercial/enterprise deployment of Debian (3+ would be even better but 2 is good enough :) ) Or if old stable release dies after new is out - how one performes upgrade etc (I know about apt-get but I guess there's something more involved in this process) There are numerous update procedures.

Large files support and libc
Hello! I'm primarily FreeBSD user so excuse me if my question is too stupid for debian folks. I've used Debian 2.2 for telephony tasks last year with kernel-2.2.18 but last week I've tried to upgrade it to woody and kernel-2.4.18 because of large files support. System was upgraded smoothly but I can't make LFS work. According to many HOWTOs that I found on the web I have built and have installed kernel image and headers with make-kpkg. Next I built glibc with new kernel headers: pharaoh# uname -a Linux pharaoh.amur.dti 2.4.18 #3 Mon Dec 2 11:10:00 YAKT 2002 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux pharaoh# export LINUX_SOURCE=/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.18; apt-get --build source glibc [skip] pharaoh# dpkg -i libc6_2.3.1-5_i386.deb libc6-dev_2.3.1-5_i386.deb locales_2.3.1-5_all.deb Next I rebuilt coreutils for testing: pharaoh# apt-get --build source coreutils [skip] pharaoh# dpkg -i coreutils_4.5.3-4_i386.deb [skip] pharaoh# dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=1024 count=450 File size limit exceeded Anyway 2G size limit still exists.

Re: Memory figures
NR memory should be at most 46 MB, and not 98 MB as 'free' NR says. In fact, figures you provided show that only 20M are used. Find some reading about how VM subsystem works, or just take a loot on second line of 'free' output, the one with +/- buffers in it. Amount of used memory in the first line includes size of filesystem cache and dirty buffers, so it is perfectly OK to have all your spare RAM used as disk cache. -- Dmitry Astapov //ADEpt (mail-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED])
