Re: No kernel modules were found
Hi Well, the kernel versions are the same. Now you can check if the release is the same than hd-media. Inside the cdrom, you can find .dist/info file that tell you the release. My test works with lenny 5.0.1 release 20090413 Iso from here: http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/i386/iso-cd/ and hd-media from here: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/Debian5.0/main/installer-i386/20090123/images/hd-media/ You can find in this page more hd-media and iso images. Just search in directory tree: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-i386/ http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/ Actually the current version is 5.0.1. If you find a directory named current, from now is 5.0.1 version. You can find more images here: http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/ Check if the release version of you CD is one of this. http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/ 2009/5/1 Steve Dean coloradode...@yahoo.com Oriol: Would you be able to send me a link to a testing (squeeze) .iso and a hd-media directory that is known to work with the latest testing iso?

I'm not sure how to check the version of the kernel in the .iso. I did dmesg | grep linux and got nothing and dmesg | grep kernel and got nothing. To check the version of the cd is the same way than hd-media. You can load only a CD (into a virtual machine or burn in a CD and load-it phisically) and in the first debina installer question, make : alt+f2, and uname -a. This tells you the CD vlinuz version. The kernel version of hd-media may be the same than netinst cdrom. I'm trying to install squeeze and I notice that the installer has trouble locating the .iso but succeeds if I select yes at the first failure ( and proceed anyway, loading more files) then when it fails to find the ethernet port I select Go Back and go back to the part where it looks for the .iso file. Installer finds the .iso then, but is still not able to find the ethernet port. The kernel needs modules to load drivers and detect hardware . If he can't load modules, he can't detect ethernet, filesystems, etc What do you think?

Code cleanup: take 1
Hi I had a first look at cleaning up some code, first step being removal of packages from the repository that seem to not be used in the official archive anymore: * sarge-support * vmelilo-installer (also from unstable)? * sysconfig-writer * linux-kernel-di-m68k-2.6 * linux-modules-di-m68k-2.6 Can these safely be removed from the repository?

IMO it's useful to keep it as an example as it's the most elaborate codename-support package we have. And as I'm the author and only listed uploader of the package I think I'm entitled to a rather heavy say in this... It could make sense to move all codename-support packages under a subdir if ppl think they clutter up the packages dir too much.

Nothing sloppy there. I still do think it's sloppy not to check the control file when the directory name cannot be found. Having the directory name equal to the source package name is nothing more than a convention. dasd and netdevice originally also did not have the s390-prefix in their directory name, but were renamed at some point because it simplified l10n-related scripting (sysconfig-writer has no strings). Possibly sysconfig-writer should also have been done at that point, but *shrug*. apparently. Would it be fine for me to rename the directory?

(I can't log in with r00tme - OF course the password is something else here :) ) What is working is the following: echo -n r00tme | mkpasswd -s -m md5 because echo then omits the \n which would end up into the hash otherwise... -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Grüße/Regards, René -- .''`.

Bug#526640: Please try to keep the number of flashes minimal
* Michael Goetze mgoe...@mgoetze.net [2009-05-02 14:17]: I just did an upgrade (via aptitude) on my QNAP TS-209, and noticed that the kernel and initrd were flashed 3 times. Since flashing is somewhat dangerous (in that a mishap/power outage may leave the system unbootable) and causes wear on the hardware, I would appreciate it if superfluous writes could be eliminated. This is a long-standing problem (introduced a few months ago). The problem is that flash-kernel will add a postinst hook for the kernel, but nowadays update-initramfs will call flash-kernel directly. I asked Joey Hess whether the postinst hook for flash-kernel can safely be removed (maybe there are corner cases where it's still needed) but didn't get a reply.

Now you can check if the release is the same than hd-media. Inside the cdrom, you can find .dist/info file that tell you the release. My test works with lenny 5.0.1 release 20090413 Iso from here: http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/i386/iso-cd/ and hd-media from here: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/Debian5.0/main/installer-i386/20090123/images/hd-media/ You can find in this page more hd-media and iso images. Just search in directory tree: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-i386/ http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/ Actually the current version is 5.0.1. If you find a directory named current, from now is 5.0.1 version. You can find more images here: http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/http://people.debian.org/%7Ejoeyh/d-i/images/ Check if the release version of you CD is one of this. http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/ 2009/5/1 Steve Dean coloradode...@yahoo.com Oriol: Would you be able to send me a link to a testing (squeeze) .iso and a hd-media directory that is known to work with the latest testing iso?

I'm not sure how to check the version of the kernel in the .iso. I did dmesg | grep linux and got nothing and dmesg | grep kernel and got nothing. To check the version of the cd is the same way than hd-media. You can load only a CD (into a virtual machine or burn in a CD and load-it phisically) and in the first debina installer question, make : alt+f2, and uname -a. This tells you the CD vlinuz version. The kernel version of hd-media may be the same than netinst cdrom. I'm trying to install squeeze and I notice that the installer has trouble locating the .iso but succeeds if I select yes at the first failure ( and proceed anyway, loading more files) then when it fails to find the ethernet port I select Go Back and go back to the part where it looks for the .iso file. Installer finds the .iso then, but is still not able to find the ethernet port. The kernel needs modules to load drivers and detect hardware . If he can't load modules, he can't detect ethernet, filesystems, etc What do you think?

Re: Re: Re: di-netboot-assistant - toward version 1.0
Hello, I would like to fire-up a brainstorming for netboot images in Squeeze. As far as I can say, there are two typical architecture: * Move to .deb images * Generalize and structure the .tar.gz files Moving toward .deb images = Probably raises some problems: * Are the image BYHAND? * Images must be arch all (So any netboot server can netboot any arch) * Would in imply extra delays, when we want to switch to a new kernel revision during the release freeze? * What about the daily builds: which repository? How to sign/upload? * Turn di-netboot-installer into a debconf helper. At the same time it has some advantages: * Rely on dpkg to install. * All the images are referenced in debian repository. There is no need no maintain other repositories manually. * Images are signed Generalize and structure the .tar.gz files == (If we don't switch to .deb, I wish all arch could provide a .tar.gz with some meta-data). Problems/drawbacks: * The opposite of .deb advantages :) Advantages: * Everyone knows how to un-tar a file, what ever the host. * Less work/No migration (i.e keep using di-netboot-assistant or a similar tool). I have embedded below my previous email on this topic, which could seems to advocate for .tar.gz (but I have no opinion yet). Your feedback is welcome.

I've had a few though toward a di-netboot-assistant version 1.0 (read: more robust with less heuristics). The problem is that today, di-n-a is doing some black-magic to detect the bootloader, and determine which files should be patched to rewrite the menu files according to the location where the files got extracted. What about the following two ideas (which should be done on the debian-installer side, not on di-netboot-assistant side ;) *** Pack D-I netboot images in a consistent way, for all archs. Currently, some arch like arm and mips provide multiple individual files, but no .tar.gz file, that's harder to fetch. Also, some architectures (like sparc, alpha and hppa) provide a single boot.img, but nothing else. Providing consistent pack of files would help unpacking them. Actually, I've fount the way the i386/ia64/amd64 tar.gz files are arranged to be very convenient : - It's a tar.gz, so it can be expanded on any [tftp server] system. - It contains a common top directory (debian-installer/$arch), so it's easy to rewrite the included configuration files, in case the file is extracted in a different directory ('s/debian-installer\/$arch/foobar/'). This layout also has two nice side effects : 1.It's possible to provide a meta-data file, to describe the content of the tar file (currently, it's version.info, but it could be enhanced to contain arch, dist, bootloader type, arch-variant, d-i variant... Also, another file could contain individual files check-sums, etc 2.It's possible to *not* extract the meta-data file when the netboot files are extracted. (thanks to tar -zxf foo.tar.gz --strip=2) *** Provide .Package and .Release like files It would be great to have file that lists all the available netboot for a given distribution, very similar to .Release and .Packages files that are referenced in /etc/apt/sources.list. Benefits : - It would be possible to list all netboot images in a single place. - It would be possible to provide checksum of those files. - It would be possible to sign all those files. What do you think about it ? I don't think this could be achieved by Lenny, but it would be great to have it in Lenny+1.

Request for help - cleaning spam from the debian-boot mailing list archive
Hi all, Yes, I do mean all: D-I team, D-I users, lurkers, everybody! Now that the listmasters have created a working toolset to actually remove spam from the mailing list archives [1], it seems like a good idea to make a coordinated effort to clean spam from the list archives. The removal of spam gets done in three stages: 1) a spam message needs to be reported by multiple people (using the Report as spam button displayed at the top of each message) 2) this then needs to be reviewed by multiple DDs (using the new tools) 3) the actual removal The call for help here is mainly for 1) and is something everybody can help with. To make sure not too many people work on the same messages, I've created a wiki page to coordinate this step: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/SpamClean The idea is that you add your name/nick/initials when you start the review of a months. 3 or 4 people for each month should be enough. Please do review the complete month when you add your name! But we'll also need a few DDs doing 2) on a regular basis. I myself have today done 1) for the months Jan-Apr of 2009 and 2) for all open reports. I intend to continue working on this for the next few months. This also showed that the three-step procedure is very much needed: even with the safeguards there were surprisingly many messages reported as spam that were valid messages. I'm looking forward to a cleaner archive! If we share the workload a bit, that should be possible.

Bug#514055: [Cbe-oss-dev] Bug#514055: debian still not working on PS3
Also the network configuration fails if you try to configure it using the wireless interface. I also tested the build from 04-30-09 and like yourself I too ran into the problem with the installer not knowing which kerenl to install even though at the beginning of the installer when it was retrieving components, it was retrieving the 2.6.29 powerpc64 kernel. I though I ran into this issue because i opted to use the netinstall from 04-30 instead of the mini.iso from 04-27 but now I am not so sure.

Before that can happen, however, testing will be necessary.

(2) At boot loader install: 'No boot loader has been installed' 'GRUB not yet usable on PowerPC systems' It should create a /etc/yaboot.conf on the same partition that the kernel was installed to, but nothing else is needed. The petitboot bootloader can read from vfat, ext2, ext3, and ext4 file systems. -Geoff _ Hotmail® has ever-growing storage!
