Re: di and woody
[John Summerfield] A few minutes ago Ibooted d-i off my week-old network boot setup and tried to install Woody. It coukln't find the needed netinstall image from the local official mirror. I'm not too surprised. Woody installs are only tested with CDs, as far as I know. No-one tested it with network installs yet, and I expect lots of bugs are left. :) But the CD install work with Debian-Edu (d-i + Woody + some upgraded/extra packages), and might work with the normal Woody too. :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#264482: more info
OK. This is definitely busybox's fault. So, to recap:
# mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M none /mnt
mount: Mounting none on /mnt failed: Bad address
But, if fstab contains:
none/mnttmpfs size=100M
and I issue
# mount /mnt
It works perfectly.
What's going on here?
Here are strace logs of mount: infstab.log is typing mount /proc using
the entry in fstab, and then mount -t proc none /proc is manual.log.
Hope this can be quickly fixed?

Re: How does installer configure modules used after reboot?
[Tod Hagan] I've got a case where debian-installer RC1 fails on reboot. I'm writing up my installation report, but first I have a question. Remember both lspci and lspci -n. :) I'm not sure that the necessary modules are loaded to see the RAIDed drives holding the install. Would these modules have to appear in the modprobe entries in the loadmodules file in /boot/initrd.img-2.4.26-1-386? Yes, I believe so. Is /boot/initrd.img-2.4.26-1-386 created dynamically during install, or is it stored in a .deb within sarge-i386-netinst.iso? It is generated when the kernel package is installed, and I believe it is done by mkinitrd. Check the postinst of a kernel package. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Do you know how to build it :yourself ? Hi! I today copied the vmlinux.coff kernel from kernel-build-2.4.25-powerpc-small to a hfs floppy and was able to boot from openfirmware with: boot fd:vmlinux(renamed kernel). The kernel loads but hangs because of no root fs. So whoever is building the boot floppies The initrd should have the root fs modules, so this should not be a problem. I have no idea how you specify a initrd with the OF, but my guess is that you need to produce a kernel with builtin initrd, like we do for chrp or prep. The best guess would be to use a 2.6.7-powerpc kernel, and use : mkvmlinuz 2.6.7-powerpc to generate vmlinuz-2.6.7-powerpc, which you can then boot from the OF. This is rather untested though, but mkvmlinuz supports the generation of the .coff image. Maybe d-i should provide such .coff images, since so it is not needed to have either bootx nor miboot. But since this is only available from the serial console, it cannot be a generic solution for old world. should take this kernel and add some root or ram stuff to make a di boot floppy. Also it seems that the ofonly and the normal kernels are equal. Should this be so? And they still dont work error: unrecognized Client Programm formatstate not valid. Maybe some sort of wrong format it should be xcoff or? No idea about this. Hi again! Take a look at: http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/images/2004-08-08/build_powerpc-small_floppy_boot.log And you can see that the floppy was built with a 2.4 kernel. And I think that it should stay so and not take an 2.6 kernel, because I never was able Well, it probably will anyway for sarge, as Jens refused to create a smallish version of the 2.6.7 powerpc config. to boot on later after sarge installed on my Umax(oldworld clone mac). That said, various reports of 2.6.7 based installer working using the bootx method make me feel like it would be not a problem. Now, if you have trouble booting the debian 2.6.7 kernel on your oldworld, your duty is to report bugs about the issue, so we get a chance to fix it. Also look at line nine from the end of the file its: hcopy -r ./tmp/powerpc-small_floppy_boot-ofonly/vmlinux.gz :vmlinuz it seems that a gziped vmlinux file becomes vmlinuz. Do I understand that right? But It should be a coff file, dont know if compressed or not. So the error formatstate blabla at openfirmwae is a result of loading a gz file. Mmm, well it is supposed to be a format that miboot is able to read, not one you launch directly from the OF. Maybe someone (how to find out how?)can change the build script to make a coff file and the I can test if the resulting floppy will work. I don't think this will change anything, and i don't think this is the problem. I will modifify the build scripts to build a .coff oldworld netboot kernel, maybe you will want to test this one ? Since d-i rc1 is out now there should be a boot floppy for people how dont have macos to boot from cd on an oldworld. Sure, but i have no oldworld hardware, and people testing the miboot floppies have been very few and none of them recently. Your contribution is welcome to participate in debian-installer oldworld support, as well as to unassemble the miboot boot block and provide us with data on how to reimplement it in a free way.

Indeed it sounds similar, except that we are on powerpc, and i am not sure enough about the whole hotplug thingy to be sure if the psmouse module will be loaded or not. Keep in mind that most powerpc folk usually use usb mouses, so X may maybe not try to load psmouse on powerpc, not sure.

Since I want to netinst, I need the nic-module from the net driver floppy and the ide-module/scsi-module from the cd driver floppy. No you didn't. You needed the net driver floppy which would enable the installer to automatically download all other drivers from the net. (Assuming you were installing from floppies that is.)

question of aptitude with important/standard
Hi, I don't decide this is a bug or a specification. tasksel in base-config is launched by 'tasksel -ris --new-install'. Each options mean to install required,important and standard packages. Then aptitude is called from tasksel internally, 'aptitude --without-recommends -y install ~prequired ~pimportant ~pstandard' I assume this would install all required/important/standard packages, but aptitude will only try to upgrade these packages instead of installing additional standard packages. Joey (tasksel maintainer), does this fit your design? And Daniel (aptitude maintainer), is this correct work? I tried 'aptitude show ~pstandard' also and I got more standard packages list such as ssh and w3m.

Bug#264450: Installation Report
Michael Banck wrote: 1. It was previously suggested to rename the inital boot dialog, like s/press Return to boot/press Return to install Debian/ or something Feel free to hack syslinux's asm code to allow this as some kind of syslinux.cfg parameter.. 2. If I don't have a network cable plugged in, I get asked for an IP address. It's possible to go back and then select 'No network configuration' (or something), but having a button like 'Continue without configuring the network' right there intially would be better. Though that's probably i) not easy with debconf and ii) too late for sarge anyway Assuming mii-diag determined this, it sounds like bug #264476 which has just been fixed. 3. As it wasn't immediatly obvious how to reformat a partition with partman, I (perhaps foolishly) decided to delete and re-create /dev/hda6 (on which some other ext2 previously existed). However, the format dialog and subsequent dialogs talked about /dev/hda9 being created/written to, which made me a bit nervous. I finally figured out that partman renumbered the devices (see above partition listing), adding /dev/hda9 at the place of the former /dev/hda6 but calling it /dev/hda9. Oh well, that was a bit unsuspected and I had to change the /etc/fstab of my other partition to fix it. If it is possible the partition numbering should be preserved IMHO. Cloning to partman for this. 5. On reboot, during the bootup sequence, the framebuffer switched to a different font which yielded about twice as many lines on the console (to my liking). However, as soon as base-config started (or perhaps shortly before), the console became totally corrupted and scrambled. It was possible to figure out that I was looking at the base-config screen and changing virtual consoles worked, but I was not able to read anything. This was with the default 2.4 kernel. I later reinstalled passing 'kernel26' to d-i, which worked fine (though the console font stayed at the intial size/number of lines) What language were you installing in? -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Why does this behave differently than installing ~t, which installs new packages in the task?

I then created two more RAID partitions and went to turn them into another software RAID 0 device, but the installer told me there were no RAID partitions to put the RAID on. When I deleted everything and started over, I created all my partitions first and then went to create RAID devices at which point things worked. Strange, this shouldn't happen... when you go to the RAID configuration menu, it will ask you to confirm that it's okay to write the information to disk. Do you remember if this was done both times you entered the RAID config menu? In the course of partitioning I also came across a bug where it wouldn't let me create a partition on the second disk drive. I would select the free space on the second drive, make a partition, but then it would put the partition on the first drive. I deleted it a number of times and This is a known bug (when you have two identical disks).

Ok...first of all, that's the wrong line to change. Second: I think
that change should only be in targets that have to do with installing
and upgrading packages: install, hold, and forbid-version. Remove and
purge will look at the current version of a package, and the rest will
look at whatever version is going to be installed.
This isn't perfect, but since the pattern language currently lacks a
way to explicitly say which version should be used, I need to make an
arbitrary decision. (I could just make all targets look at the candidate
version, but that would make it hard to remove packages based on their
current state :( )
A patch against current SVN is attached. Is this important enough
that you want to try to squeeze it into t-p-u?

how to boot a pseries
To boot a IBM pseries (at least the b50) from the cdrom it is necessary to: 1) create a directory /etc in the cdrom and put a yaboot.conf in it 2) use cdrom instead of cd in the device line in yaboot.conf 3) create a /ppc/bootinfo.txt with chrp-boot descriptionDebian GNU/Linux /description os-nameDebian GNU/Linux /os-name boot-scriptboot device;:\boot\yaboot.rs6k/boot-script /chrp-boot 4) run the addnote program in the yaboot binary. I don't know if the resulting file boots in a pmac. Maybe it is necessary to have two yaboots: yaboot and yaboot.rs6k 5) use the -chrp option with mkisofs Thats all :) Rafael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

OK, I'm at work right now, and the machine is at home, but I'll try to get you that data tonight.

Or is there something about the hardware discovery process that I don't know (very likely) that makes that difficult or unpalatable?

Personally, I perfer being cautious about loading hardware drivers unconditionally, since there are often edge cases where they hang a machine. And while perhaps all newworld macs have firewire today, it's hard to say if that will be the case tomorrow. The nice thing about the pci bus is it lets us eliminate the guesswork.

Since I want to netinst, I need the nic-module from the net driver floppy and the ide-module/scsi-module from the cd driver floppy. No you didn't. You needed the net driver floppy which would enable the installer to automatically download all other drivers from the net. (Assuming you were installing from floppies that is.) Completly different from the bug report you responded to. Sorry, I guess I was too terse in my description. What I did was use the net driver image, deleted the pcmcia and wireless driver modules and copied the ide-module _or_ scsi-module driver udebs into the image and dd'ed a new floppy. I update the file with the udeb list, of course. This specific configuration won't work for the particular situation the bug-reporter is in. But the idea is to create a floppy image with all of the module udebs needed for the install into one floppy, so you don't need to change floppies. This might not work in all situations, since some of the udebs are pretty large and won't fit on a single floppy. But that didn't seem like the situation in this bug report.

Bug#264492: NewWorld (G4) PowerPC d-i hardware detect does not see firewire disk
On Mon, 2004-08-09 at 15:07, Joey Hess wrote: Rick_Thomas wrote: However, that said, let me argue that it should not be needed: All NewWorld Macs have onboard FireWire, and so potentially need ohci1394 and sbp2 to access external disks.

So... why not just always make the ohci1394 and sbp2 modules available as an option in one of the hardware discovery menus whenever we're installing on a NewWorld Mac? Or is there something about the hardware discovery process that I don't know (very likely) that makes that difficult or unpalatable? Like, it's totally driven by [the equivalent of] the output of lspci? Is there a design/implementation document somewhere that describes this process? I'd be interested in reading it, if it's available. Of course we could always load this module on newworld macs if we decided that was the best way. As I'm not a mac person, I really can't say. Personally, I perfer being cautious about loading hardware drivers unconditionally, since there are often edge cases where they hang a machine. And while perhaps all newworld macs have firewire today, it's hard to say if that will be the case tomorrow. The nice thing about the pci bus is it lets us eliminate the guesswork. Anyway, adding the pci id is the quickest fix at this point. OK, as I said, output of lspci and lspci -n will be sent tonight, when I can get my hands on the machine in question. Still, perhaps I wasn't clear. I was suggesting only that the modules be made available as a user-choice option in one of the discovering hardware menus -- not that they be loaded always. I agree that future Macs cannot be guaranteed to have built-in onboard firewire, or they may have firewire controllers that don't conform to the ohci1394 specs and freeze up when presented with ohci1394 commands. So make it optional, but make it a standard option. Rick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

All the udebs you need for a network install are on the net-drivers floppy. All the udebs you need for a CD install are on the cd-driver floppy, unless you have a pcmcia cdrom, then you need the net-drivers floppy too, to get the pcmcia udeb. Since that's not the configuration you described, you should not need to use more than one driver floppy, or modify the floppies at all. Specifically, you seem to be under the impression that you need the cd-drivers floppy to get the installer to support your buslogic scsi controller. But you don't. Once the installer is on the network, it will download all the scsi drive udebs. -- see shy jo

Re: Not fixed when I tested it
Euan MacGregor wrote: reopen 239111 thanks (Side note: the version that claims to have fixed it wasn't present with the release candidate version of d-i, so this was using a sid snapshot image from 20040807) I'm afraid I can reproduce this too. With grub -7, the xfs_freeze stuff does happen, but the result seems to be that the grub command gets stuck in an uninterruptable sleep. I tried thawing the xfs partition after a few minutes, and grub happily continued with the install. I see the same kind of hang if I freeze an XFS partition and then try to write to it, so it seems like running the grub command must somehow be writing to the XFS partition as well as accessing it directly. It's seems we're damed if we do, and damned if we don't... FWIW, my test was with a system that had a single XFS partition for the whole root filesystem, including /boot. I thought perhaps it was the redirection of grub's output to a log file by grub-install, since writing to a log file when XFS is frozen could hang. But even after removing the redirection to $log_file, it still hangs. :-( -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Hello. I just wanted to report that I used the businesscard.iso (link below) to install a sid system on vmware and it when very well.

Joeyh, two comments on this : - firewire will probably be on newworld pmacs for the whole of sarge (and probably even sarge+1) lifetime, if not longer. - i suspect that the pci id is already used to load the actual firewire driver, and since discover 1 cannot load more than one module for a given pci id, i suspect you will encounter problem this way. I suppose ohci1394 will be loaded for the pci id. That said, there is some other place where other modules are loaded, since d-i clearly loads the firewire network modules.

Once it finds ohci1394 loaded, hw-detect will unconditionally try to load sbp2 and eth1394 modules, as there's no other way. I think that ohci1394 is the right thing to have in the discover db for firewire controllers, after all you can't tell what's on the controller and as you say discover can only load one module. As far as I can see, discover1-data has no pci ids mapped to sbp2 or eth1394, they all map to ohci1394. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

pathologically unstable kernel in sarge
Let me start at the begining - I burned the rc1 cd netinstall candidate for sarge on 6/21/04, installed it, and everything was good for 2 months. Last friday, I was trying to fix the libpng vulnerability, and in the process of installing aptitude, my apt-get replaced my libgcc1 and some other stuff. This broke gcc. Some friends said it was most likely just a broken dependency somewhere, so I did a dist-upgrade to get everything back in sync. This fixed my gcc, but the dist-upgrade also took the liberty of installing a new kernel, which is, unfortunately, completely unstable. Like, it reboots every 20 seconds. To be 100% sure this problem was real, I just burned the rc1 cd netinstall candidate from debian.org today and re-installed from scratch. The install couldn't even finish because as soon as it rebooted wtih this new kernel, it crashed 20 seconds later. I'm on a Dell Dimension 2350. What is going on here? I have never had this kind of problem from debian before. How far away is sarge from going stable? - martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
