-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello,
I have been working recently on an update to the ppp-udeb package (responsible for configuring PPPoE networking in D-I and the target system). I think I have finished fixing the last bad bits from the ppp-udeb package[*], but currently I am unable to do a test on complete installation due to bug #407702[1], but I am confident it should just work. So I am asking if there are people interested in testing the image I have prepared with the new ppp-udeb package. The image can be downloaded from: http://users.alioth.debian.org/~eddyp-guest/ppp-2.4.4rel-5/mini-with-ppp-udeb-20070124.iso (Security concerned people can check the signature[3] and md5sums[4] and go on, if they trust me :-) ) How to test: In order to test, just boot the image[2] (no boot parameters are needed) and try to do a basic installation via PPPoE. What should be (/would be nice to be :-) ) checked: - - in D-I environment * bad/good login should be detected (good logins are silent) * transitory problems when trying to do the inital connection (cable unplugged or PPPoE server down) should be detected - - in the installed system: * target system boots fine with the PPPoE connection set up correctly * hosts file and hostname are set correctly * permissions are set correctly on the network configuration files and the ppp configuration files (an output of "ls -lR /etc/ppp" in the target would be appreciated) * lo interface is configured correctly Please respond as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.
