Re: [RFC] IMPORTANT: Cleaning l10n-sync damage from D-I SVN repository

2009-06-05 Thread Christian Perrier
Quoting Frans Pop (elen...@planet.nl):
 As you may remember we had a problem before the release of Lenny with the 
 l10n-sync script running wild and creating an insanely large Danish PO 
 file for sublevel 4.


I can't comment deeply on your proposal, but I'd like to thank you for
taking care to repair that damage as much as possible, while it
occurred mostly because I was not attentive enough to commit logs.

I'm highly confident that you'll take all care needed to avoid
damaging the SVN so, the only thing I can really do, is wishing you
good luck and courage for that task that obviously need to be done
with grreat care. Again, thanks.

Generating a Lenny Netinst CD with a newer kernel

2009-06-05 Thread Martin Gerdes
Since the lenny netinst CD recognized neither the RAID controller, nor the
networking card of our server (a dell poweredge r710), we decided to build
ourselves a custom lenny installer cd using a newer installer kernel.
We tried to follow these tutorials:
https://lliurex.net/projects/valencia/lliurex-pool/browser/installer/trunk/debian-installer/doc/custom-kernel.txt?rev=3506
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Modify/CustomKernel

We used the kernel from lenny_backports (2.6.29).
After figuring out that kernel-wedge had to be upgraded to its unstable
version, we managed to build the udebs, and moved them to build/localudebs.
We than found out that we had to uncomment monolithic in
build/config/amd64.cfg to make the build_monolithic target available.
However, make build_monolithic fails with E: Konnte Paket
acpi-modules-2.6.29-2-amd64-di nicht finden (Transl.: could not find packet
acpi-modules-2.6.29-2-amd64-di)

Furthermore, there is a lot of stuff like fat-modules-2.6.26-1-amd64-di in
the package list, even though we have only build udebs for 2.6.29, and
changed the KERNELVESION parameter in build/config/amd64.cfg accordingly.

We tried copying the line deb
copy:/usr/src/debian-installer-20090123lenny1/build/ localudebs/ from
build/sources.list.udeb to /etc/apt/sources.list. Now we can download the
module acpi-modules-2.6.29-2-amd64-di using normal apt-get. So the build
script really _should_ find the packages, shouldn't it?

What are we doing wrong? And what about the 2.6.26 packages?

 You can change the file along with the copy operation.

Right, I see what you mean now. I've extended my awk script to do that:
- when a da.po file for a package is removed, it's also saved to a tmp
  dir, so I always have the latest version for each package available
- when I encounter a revision that creates a tag for the package, I read
  the last saved file back in (modifying the path to match the tag dir)

The cleaned dump file it creates looks good; next is testing if it loads 
and checking resulting revisions.

New version of script attached (for posterity and the curious :-)

 Another problem: does anyone use dumps with deltas? The hotbackup
 script bundled with subversion does this.

No idea, though the subversion-tools package description says it's for bdb 
based repos. If someone does I hope they speak up.

Cheers,
FJP

Re: Generating a Lenny Netinst CD with a newer kernel

2009-06-05 Thread Martin Gerdes
Prividing dummy packages for the two packages created an iso, which
boots, and recognizes both the networking card (after adding the
firmware from an usbstick to /lib/firmware), and the hard drive. :-)
Now the only problem left to solve is to get a kernel form
lenny_backports installed, so that the installed system will actually
find it's root file system.
Anyway, the problem of creating an iso is solved, sorry about the noise.

package: installation-report

Hi,

I tested the daily-build from 
http://people.debian.org/~cjwatson/d-i/powerpc-miboot/2006-06-21/powerpc/floppy/
on an oldworld powermac 4400 with lowmen (48mb IIRC) and noticed some problems 
and a failed installation.

The etch floppies from 
http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-powerpc/beta2/images/
didnt work (boot-floppy didn't boot), I guess because they are build without 
the non-free miboot tool. It would be nice, if for beta3 we could point 
people to working images. (Which I haven't found for beta2.)

After booting the boot.img from june 21st (which worked fine so #345467
can be closed) I noticed that I need to eject it manually, before I could 
insert the root-floppy. IIRC this is a regression, and we had ejecting 
boot-floppies. 

After writing a floppy image on a floppy, I compare them with /usr/bin/cmp. 
cmp: EOF on root.img is known for a while (#295996), whats new is that I 
get the same error with the cd-drivers.img now as well.

The net-drivers.img is too big to fit on a floppy! :-(

I downloaded and used the CD image I used from
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/powerpc/iso-cd/debian-testing-powerpc-netinst.iso
 

Next problem was the auto-partioning, in Partition disks: it defaults to 
floppy :(

So far I avoided LVM and choose the non LVM setup. (So I cannot say if #267992 
and #279118 are fixed)

Then the installation runs without problems until quik-installer, this
ends with an error because /boot is on a seperate partition (though quik 
supports it, the error-msg (typed not copied) is: the quik bootloader 
requires /boot to be on the same partition as /
(#264815 are #266123 (essentially fixed, otherwise the above would not 
happen :) are related to this. )

Even when this is fixed, the machine will not boot, cause some OF variables 
need to be set, see #274115.



So my todo-list is:
1. close #345467 (root.img doesnt work)
2. clone this bug to have one as a reminder to have beta3 miboot images 
somewhere - should I also reassign/usertag it? 
3. clone this bug and rename to net-drivers.img to big to fit on a floppy

Bug#532043: Debootstrap segfault during installation : testing i386 netinstall

2009-06-05 Thread Timothy Sweeney
Package: Installation-reports

I've been trying to install debian-testing using both the larger netinstall
ISO, and the small kernel/initrd, and in both cases, the process fails when
debootstrap segfaults while trying to execute: chroot /target mount -t proc
proc /proc.
The command executes cleanly from a shell, and I'm able to go back after
doing so and retry the Install the base system step successfully. This has
happened on both a P4 desktop system, and an eeePC netbook.

I didn't get a chance to save the logs from either installation as I needed
to get the job finished, but as it happened on two different machines,
hopefully it is reproducible easily elsewhere.

Thanks.


Bug#532050: deboostrap segfault at mount

2009-06-05 Thread Victor Stinner

Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.10lenny1

Sorry, this ticket is a duplicate of #532047 (typo in the package name).

Hi, I tried to install Debian Sid and then Debian Testing using the
daily (6 june) netinst (CD-Rom) on a i386 box. Both CDR crashed at the
same step (mount after formatting the disk).

I choosed to format my whole disk using the automated choice (with: /,
/home, /var, /tmp, swap). After format completion, the installer fails
with a message like mount /dev/... fails (sorry I don't remember the
exact message). Here are the last lines of syslog before the crash:

I retreived the whole syslog using netcat. Should I attach this file to
this bug?

I don't know how to get more informations.

If I retry the same installer step (install base system, using the
option: replace existing files), deboostrap doesn't crash anymore...

Victor

More details:
* debootstrap segfaults at chroot /target mount -t proc proc /proc
* If I run this command in a shell after the crash, the command runs fine.
* There is nothing special in kernel logs (dmesg).
* I used the graphical installer

It looks like the error is already known:

Re: [D-I] Please test Debian Installer with console-setup

 Packages have now reached the state where it is possible to test
 things out and provide some feedback. For this to happen, I built two
 netboot i386 ISO images (one[2] is console-based and another one[3]
 is using the graphical installer), where kbd-config has been replaced
 by console-setup-udeb and localechooser activates the use of
 console-setup on the installed system by default.

 Keyboard select question is different from previous one, good.

 But they stop installation with debootstrap failure message 
 Warning: Failure trying to run: chroot /target mount -t proc proc /proc
 in my environment. So I test keyboard layout with virtual console (good)
 but cannot test with X.
