Hi, i am sending this only to debian-cd, as it is not specific to the bugs 740504 and 743879.
Steve McIntyre: > Please shout if you want me to change to another newer version, e.g. for the > hppa changes that you've been talking about elsewhere. Well, 1.3.6.pl01 is the current one. I must of course take the opportunity to advertise it. :)) The hppa stuff will be in 1.3.8 if Helge confirms that the code suits the needs of PALO. I will upload a 1.3.7 development snapshot when this is ready. 1.3.8 will also offer an opportunity to inspect the non-CD boot equipment of ISOs. E.g. debian-7.4.0-amd64-netinst.iso looks like: ------------------------------------------------------------------- System area summary: MBR isohybrid cyl-align-on GPT APM ISO image size/512 : 454656 Partition offset : 0 MBR heads per cyl : 64 MBR secs per head : 32 MBR partition table: N Status Type Start Blocks MBR partition : 1 0x80 0x00 0 454656 MBR partition : 2 0x00 0xef 151000 896 MBR partition path : 2 /boot/grub/efi.img GPT : N Info GPT CRC should be : 0xc550ba17 to match first 92 GPT header block bytes GPT CRC found : 0x078e0150 matches all 512 bytes of GPT header block GPT disk GUID : e6d76b72fc42d5439e1949abad17560e GPT entry array : 12 208 overlapping GPT lba range : 64 454602 454655 GPT partition name : 1 490053004f00480079006200720069006400 GPT partname local : 1 ISOHybrid GPT partition GUID : 1 e6d76b72fc42d5439e1b49abad17560e GPT type GUID : 1 a2a0d0ebe5b9334487c068b6b72699c7 GPT partition flags: 1 0x1000000000000001 GPT start and size : 1 0 454600 GPT partition name : 2 490053004f004800790062007200690064003100 GPT partname local : 2 ISOHybrid1 GPT partition GUID : 2 e6d76b72fc42d5439e1a49abad17560e GPT type GUID : 2 a2a0d0ebe5b9334487c068b6b72699c7 GPT partition flags: 2 0x1000000000000001 GPT start and size : 2 151000 896 GPT partition path : 2 /boot/grub/efi.img APM : N Info APM block size : 2048 APM gap fillers : 0 APM partition name : 1 EFI APM partition type : 1 Apple_HFS APM start and size : 1 37750 224 APM partition path : 1 /boot/grub/efi.img ------------------------------------------------------------------- GPT will be recognized only if CRC is correct or if it is my own bug. The lines about GPT CRC appear only if the bug is detected. Maybe this is of interest for a rough automatic check of the resulting ISOs. E.g. do all partition tables have a pointer to efi.img: MBR partition path : 2 /boot/grub/efi.img GPT partition path : 2 /boot/grub/efi.img APM partition path : 1 /boot/grub/efi.img Or is an isohybrid MBR recognized and outer partition cylinder aligned (to please fdisk and to obey the prescriptions of hpa): System area summary: MBR isohybrid cyl-align-on GPT APM in contrast to the GRUB2 based equipment of debian_kfreebsd_mini.iso System area summary: MBR protective-msdos-label cyl-align-off Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
