I just did a boot-floppies build with todays CVS, built against
busybox 0.51-9 (-8 is broken) and debootstrap 0.1.13.
the install went pretty much perfectly, all the permissions problems
are gone now, debootstrap no longer fails to mount proc.
base-config went well, no problems there, except for tasksel still
needing to be fixed up.
the remaining problems are:
quik installs a bootblock whether you want one or not, 2.0e-0.4 will
fix that when it enters testing, except that version will also
silently overwrite /etc/quik.conf with a useless one on every
upgrade (.3 already does that anyway).
powerpc-utils is brokenly installed:
$ ls -l /etc/init.d/*hwclock*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jun 23 20:31
/etc/init.d/hwclock.sh.dpkg-devert.tmp
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1503 Jul 9 2000
/etc/init.d/hwclock.sh.dpkg-dist
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3255 Apr 15 16:45
/etc/init.d/hwclock.sh.util-linux
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jun 23 20:31
/etc/init.d/hwclock.sh.util-linux.dpkg-devert.tmp
fixing bug#99875 will solve this.
base-files sets /boot to wierd permissions:
$ ls -ld /boot
drwxrwsr-x 2 root disk 1024 Jun 23 20:31 /boot
why? i checked the pototo version and it had this too, but busybox
has never restored permissions correctly until now so nobody ever
noticed (since dbootstrap created /boot root.root 0755 which busybox
didn't change).
there is still alot of detail work to be done, but things are looking
good so far.
