[D-I] Localization status for Debian Installer
The situation for D-I translations is currently the following. It is not that brilliant, I have to say. And I limit details to level 1. In very short: 33 languages are in good shape. *26 languages are in danger of being deactivated* More details The safe side - 16 languages are complete: ar bg cs de es fr ga it ja lt nb pt ru sk th vi 14 languages were complete before changes to sublevel 5 and only have 5 fuzzy strings to very seldomly used packages: ast bn el eo et eu fi gu mr pl sl sq sv tr zh_TW 3 languages have a few strings to update in sublevels 1 to 3 but have active translators who will probably easy cope with them: be nl zh_CN The unsafe side --- 12 languages had random updates since lenny but not on a regular basis. These languages are at risk of being deactivated for Squeeze if they are not complete for sublevels 1 and 2: da gl ko pa ro he hi hu ka pt_BR ml tl 8 languages were complete in lenny but had no update since then. These languages are at risk of being deactivated for Squeeze if they are not complete for sublevels 1 and 2: bs ca dz hr id km lv mk ne nn ta wo Other languages are in various situations. Those marked (P) are not activated and have nearly no chance to be activated for Squeeze, the exception being Sinhala (si) which is making great progress. The 6 active languages listed below are at risk of being deactivated: 089% uk 1 087% ku 1 086% am 1 083% kk 083% si (P) 2 072% sr 1 069% cy 1 064% is (P) 1 043% ms (P) 1 034% kn (P) 1 025% br (P) 1 015% se 1 014% mg (P) 014% te (P) 2 012% fa (P) 1 009% xh (P) 1 008% ur (P) 1 002% hy (P) 1 000% lo (P) Squeeze release plans have not been made yet but I would say this is time to become aware of the situation and start hunting for translators for endangered languages. signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Installer wish
Please forward the message to a german team user Ich hätte da mal eine Vorschlag für den debian squeeze Installer, Ich habe 2 Netzwerkkarten in meinem Rechner. Ist es möglich das ich im Installer gleich alle beide aktiviren kann so das ich dann nach der Installation den Grundsystems mit ifconfig alle beide Netzwerkkarten angezeigt bekomme?

Bug#578315: Installation Report
Package: installation-reports Boot method: How did you boot the installer? CD? floppy? network? I booted with a network install CD for Squeeze (Testing) Image version: http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ netinstall CD for i386 I did not note the URL but when I click this now, there is sth. like http://hammurabi.acc.umu.se (whatever this is ...) Date: Date and time of the install Sun. 18 Apr. 2010 22:00 Machine: ACER Aspire T630 Processor: Pentium 4, 3GHz Memory: 512 MB Partitions: df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred Can't deliver, system is still installing... Output of lspci -knn (or lspci -nn): Can't deliver, system is still installing... Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Detect network card:[O] Configure network: [E] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Install base system:[O] Clock/timezone setup: [O] User/password setup:[O] Install tasks: [O] Install boot loader:[E] Overall install:[O] Comments/Problems: Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments and ideas you had during the initial install. For the network card (a Intel PRO (e100)) the installer said, that there is firmware missing. In your description I found, that the installer will ask to load the drivers from a medium. I installed this system minimum 5 times, because I tried to find these drivers and made several errors. But then I found them, copied them on a usb as the pc does not have floppy. But now that I am ready, the installer does not ask anymore to load the drivers. It seems to me, that when I choose the onboard nic the question would be displayed, as I tried this once. But then - in the meaning to work around the problem - I installed a e100 (Intel) nic. The installer then asks, which nic I want to use and I select the Intel. After that, the installer unfortunately does NOT ask to install the driver... For the onboard nic I did not find the drivers at all... so I should stick with the Intel, but now I am unsure, how to install them. If I just copy the files into /lib/firmware/e100, the drivers will not be automatically updated, as I understand from your manual. The installation of the boot loader did correctly recognise, that there is a XP and a Ubuntu Installation on the system. It then sais that it should be safe to overwrite the MBR or so. I say OK and after reboot there are only four lines and all for starting Debian. XP and Ubuntu are completely missing. Best regards M.

Bug#578338: debian-installer: grub-install fails to md0
