Package: installer Version: Jessie Severity: normal Tags: d-i I tried to install jessie using the hd-media installer.
First while partitioning btrfs was not available as a filesystem option. I opend a command prompt, unmounted the partition and created a new filesystem using mkfs.btrfs -f -L rootfs -m single /dev/sda1 that seemed to work. Than I tried to mount this filesystem again with mount -t btrfs /dev/sda1 /target and got an errormessage that the filesystem could not be mounted. Sorry, I do not no the exact error because I rebooted the system several times to figure out how to get it done. A workaround is to install wheezy (its installer recognizes the btrfs) and than do a dist-upgrade to jessie. Since this is going to the installer team, I also have a question or suggestion: Is there a way to give the hd-media installer a hint which ..iso image to use? If not, that would be a great option if one has multiple installer versions and multiple .iso images on the disk. The installer could still fall back to scanning for an .iso image. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
