Package: debian-installer-utils Version: 1.119 Severity: normal Tags: d-i Dear Maintainer,
When booting an .iso image via HTTP boot from UEFI, the .iso image will be exposed to the OS as a ramdisk via the ACPI NFIT table, and will be picked up by the existing NFIT code in the kernel, which will expose it as a /dev/pmemXXX device. For example, # blkid /dev/pmem0: UUID="2017-10-17-14-41-11-00" LABEL="ISOIMAGE" TYPE="iso9660" Currently, debian-installer will fail to find this block device, and complain that the installer media cannot be found. Please add support for pmemXXX block device nodes to list-devices so that they may be found automatically when using HTTP boot to install. -- Ard. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: arm64 (aarch64) Kernel: Linux 4.14.0-rc4-00014-g981584ed1827 (SMP w/24 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
