Is this another way to say we should leave the Debian Edu Jessie setup broken and untestable until someone else fixes unrelated stuff in Debian, or did you have something else in mind? I've tested a bit more, and when using --allow-remove, pkgsel is able to install our packages. The next blocker is grub being unable to find the partitions. I used lilo instead, which was able to install into the hard drive. When the installer was done and the system booted from the hard drive, the boot got started but no login prompt showed up. No idea why, nor how to debug it. :( So to summarize, these are the blockers for testing Debian Edu in Jessie right now: - problems with partitioning in d-i (perhaps LVM or automatic partition related) - problems with pkgsel because debootstrap install sysvinit and pkgsel want to switch to systemd. - problems with grub being unable to find the file system partitions. - problems after first boot, no login prompt show up. Perhaps systemd related? I suspect most of them are independent problems (partitioning and grub might be related). The Jessie freeze is close, and we have not yet tested the installed system. I guess we have a lot of work left before we have anything that is releasable. :/ -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
