Actually, I looked at it again, and while the questions are shown, mostly they use what was already configured with the sid installer. With the menu showing, language is (in terms of dialogues) a noop, as is users passwords except that one is asked whether to use shadow passwords. MTA isn't asked by the sid installer when installing sarge, and apt setup for installing packages is different than mirror selection for installing the base system, so I don't consider than an issue. So over all using the sid installer to install sarge works. The only thing that I think could be a problem is the shadow passwords question (what happens if you used them during d-i, but turn them off again in base-config?), or due to differences in kernel/udev (which doesn't affect the system I'm using because it's supported by sarge's kernel anyway).

Re: Boot of new Debian system hangs
Hey again, for information, the problem is solved. It seems, that the BIOS of my motherboard changes the drive mapping in the way, that the boot hard disk is always hd0, regardless of if its IDE or SCSI. Changing the menu entry root (hd2,0) to (hd0,0) fixes all.

The attached patch was created to fix the following problems installing
Ubuntu on ia64:
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/elilo-installer/+bug/38232
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/elilo-installer/+bug/40665
I haven't tested this on Debian, but the new code is cleaner and less
prone to failures imo. However, there is now a dependency on partman's
find-partitions...

elilo-installer - Install elilo on a hard disk (udeb)
Closes: 254059 368660
Changes:
elilo-installer (1.6) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Build on i386 (closes: #254059); add isinstallable file to restrict use
of elilo to Apple i386 systems, which are the only EFI-using systems I
know of at the moment.
* Drop installer-menu-item number to 76 in order to be later than
grub-installer and lilo-installer, to reduce the risk of breakage on
i386.
* Use partconf-find-partitions rather than trying and failing to parse the
output of parted (thanks, Bryan Stillwell; closes: #368660).

Bug#373097: file-preseed: file preseeding can't be used for anna/choose_modules
Package: file-preseed Version: 0.01 Severity: normal When using debian-installer on hd-media, it is not possible to use file-preseed to select which modules anna should load (through anna/standard_modules and anna/choose_modules debconf questions). This is particularily annoying, as the other possibilities are not very convinient: env-preseed hit the maximum command line size pretty quickly, and initrd-preseed requires to rebuild the debian-installer images. The current situation is: * both file-preseed and load-cdrom has a XB-Installer-Menu-Item set to 14, * both iso-scan and load-iso has a XB-Installer-Menu-Item set to 13, with load-iso depending on iso-scan. In either case, file-preseed has no chance to be run before the cdrom components get loaded. The correct order, IMHO, in a hd-media setup should be: iso-scan, file-preseed, load-iso. I might be confusing load-iso/load-cdrom, but here's the general idea. Thanks for any help, -- Jérémy pgpYYEiNHnsHZ.pgp Description: PGP signature
Preseed problem regarding X11-common
Hi
I have to install Debian on 50+ computers and is therefore creating
a preseed install-cd, but there is one major problem. During the
installation the X11-common package popups with a nofification, not
a question, and you have to press procced. I don't know what is
called in the preseed-configuration, so i can't get rid of it...
And a second thing regarding the install-configuration file. I
googled around and found some conf-files with manually partition
layout. Do anyone know what all the first numbers covers? And can
explaing the next couple of lines for me.

The exact same kernel seems to work in a normal setup, and here, the ethernet drivers are detected and loaded all right, but dhcp fails, and even having static configuration doesn't help, nor manual playing with ifconfig (mmm, didn't we have a ping command in d-i ?). Since i did a network install, there was nothing much more i could do past this. Oh, and whoever is following powerpc d-i bug report, please make sure mkvmlinuz 22 is installed asap on the daily builds, and it would be best to also bump the build dep to be mkvmlinuz = 22 [powerpc].

The only interesting bit about these rebuilds is that the jfs-modules udeb has been dropped from ia64. jfs is completely broken on ia64, and I dropped the module build before sarge's release. This probably requires a pkglist tweak in d-i. -- dann frazier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#373145: Installation on software RAID fails to boot
Package: installation-reports Boot method: Daily i386 netinst CD Image version: downloaded 2006 June 11 Date: 2006 June 12 Machine: Asus P2L-B Processor: Celeron 500MHz Memory: 384MB Partitions: hda1, ~128MB, swap hda2, ~64MB, ext3, /boot hda3, extended partition hda5, ~2GB, software RAID hdb looks identical except that hdb2 isn't mounted. hda5 + hdb5 = md0, RAID 0, root filesystem. I've read that it's now possible to boot from RAID, and I can try that later. The installer was a pleasure to use. It really made the RAID setup process easy. Good job! Output of lspci and lspci -n: Let me know if you need this. Base System Installation Checklist: All OK except for booting from hard disk. Comments/Problems: I'll attach a boot log.
