Re: Obtaining UUID's to use for grub
Am Freitag, den 25.12.2009, 12:18 -0500 schrieb vr: I'm using the amd64 flavor of the 503 netinst installation CD. In my case I do not have a network connection available during initial installation. Since there is no network initially, is it possible to acquire the UUID of a USB device, in human readable form, using only the tools on the netinst CD, so the UUID may be supplied to grub at the end of installation? And if so, how? For the root= Linux parameter UUIDs are now by default used, especially on a fresh new install. If you mean for the GRUB root device, then you have to use GRUB 2. Which with lenny means either install in expert mode or preseed grub-installer/grub2_instead_of_grub_legacy with true. Or if you really have to get it yourself for some custom boot entries you make then just use in the installed system either `grub-probe -t fs_uuid -d /dev/XYZ' or `grub-probe -t fs_uuid /path' Doestn't matter what GRUB version gets used in that case, both depend on grub-common which provides grub-probe. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Rescue Mode
Hi there, I'm running Debian Squeeze on my laptop and had a question about booting. I have to resize my primary/root ext3 partition to free some space for the windows install (needed for work so can't be ditched) that this machine dual boots. I've done this before but with a live CD which I'm unfortunately about 400km away from at the moment. I've tried the built-in rescue mode that shows on my grub menu but it wants to boot my root partition which I don't want. Can rescue mode be used without mounting the root directory? If not, are there any pre-made debian boot packages that have a small self-contained linux rescue environment builtin? Thanks, -- Drew Nothing in life is to be feared.

By wrong do you mean it is a QWERTY keyboard? Or it is a French one but wrong in some other way? What happens if you execute loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz (it doesn't matter whether you do this in maintenance mode or after regular start of the machine) Is the contents of /etc/default/keyboard correct? It has to contain lines like the following: XKBMODEL=pc105 XKBLAYOUT=fr XKBVARIANT= What happens with the keyboard if you use the command 'setupcon' when the machine is in regular mode (not in maintenance mode)? I am puzzled by the fact you say the keyboard doesn't work in maintenance mode but it works in normal mode. This is because in both cases the keyboard is configured by the command loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz and there is nothing there to depend on /usr being mounted. Can you edit /etc/default/console-setup and put there the line VERBOSE_OUTPUT=yes and see if there are some error messages?

Bug#562557: console-setup: Wrong keyboard in single mode/normal boot failure

By wrong do you mean it is a QWERTY keyboard? Or it is a French one but wrong in some other way? Its a qwerty keyboard. What happens if you execute loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz Well I just removed it just in case. I will have to wait until reboot but I cannot now... Is the contents of /etc/default/keyboard correct? It has to contain lines like the following: XKBMODEL=pc105 XKBLAYOUT=fr XKBVARIANT= XKBMODEL=pc105 XKBLAYOUT=fr XKBVARIANT= XKBOPTIONS=lv3:ralt_switch What happens with the keyboard if you use the command 'setupcon' when the machine is in regular mode (not in maintenance mode)? Well I have tried t log on a console and this does no more work either. I am puzzled by the fact you say the keyboard doesn't work in maintenance mode but it works in normal mode. This is because in both cases the keyboard is configured by the command loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz I was simply wrong: I discovered it when entering in maintenance mode and last time I used the console to kill xbmc or kdm it worked. Something did chnage in the mean time. and there is nothing there to depend on /usr being mounted. Can you edit /etc/default/console-setup and put there the line VERBOSE_OUTPUT=yes and see if there are some error messages? Yes I get a syntax error! for Lat15-Fixed16.psf.gz. You got it because it.

Bug#562557: console-setup: Wrong keyboard in single mode/normal boot failure
I finally found the bug: I traced setupcons -k in error mode and it expects to find ckbcomp but unfortunately /usr is not mounted and ckbcomp is /usr/bin/ckbcomp I traced the setupcons -k with set -x and it exist with doing anyting because it does not find ckbcomp in the path. -- eric -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#562686: [console-setup] Silently breaks console-tools
Package: console-setup Version: 1.50 Severity: important Console-setup silently breaks console-tools. Yes, you've added a paragraph in README.Debian, but I think that simply not enough. Console-setup should detect that console-tools is installed and when started should echo something like console-tools detected, its settings will be overridden or similar. Also during installation you should show this information to the user. I lost almost an hour today on this so I'll set the severity to important.
