Package: debian-installer-launcher Version: 5 Severity: normal Fresh install, updated (from konsole), Synaptic GUI wont run. Tried to invoke debian-installer-launcher from konsole, but: ERROR: 'kexec' is not a valid plugin. Check and try again. Significance of last sentence is unfortunately not clear to me.

[PATCH kernel-wedge v2] Allow configuration files to be placed in a subdirectory
In a kernel source package, which will be non-native, the kernel-wedge configuration should be placed under the debian/ directory. copy-modules, gen-control, gen-deps, install-files: If the environment variable $KW_CONFIG_DIR is set, look for configuration files in the specified directory (which may be relative). --- This adds an environment variable instead of additional parameters, as requested.

Bug#619236: RFS: kboot-utils -- needed for d-i to complete on PS3
Hi Debian Mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package kboot-utils, it is needed to make debian-installer complete a successful installation on PlayStation3. I am also the upstream author. * Package name: kboot-utils Version : 0.1 Upstream Author : Antonio Ospite osp...@studenti.unina.it * URL : http://git.ao2.it/kboot-utils.git/ * License : GPLv3 Programming Lang: Posix shell It builds the binary package: kboot-utils To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://bugs.debian.org/641465 The package can be downloaded with dget using this command: dget -u http://ao2.it/debian/kboot-utils_0.1-1.dsc The source package can be now found in the 'debian' branch at: http://git.ao2.it/kboot-utils.git/ please keep in mind that I am still learning how to deal with git-buildpackage. The package has been tested with pbuilder, checked with lintian, verified it is piuparts-clean, but there might very well still be something worth fixing. I packaged kboot-utils (Helper tools to generate a kboot.conf file) for debian, and I'd like to ask if someone can *review* the package and maybe eventually sponsor me for upload to the main archive. At the end of the day it will be needed to have a 100% working installation on the PlayStation3, see Bug #619236: http://bugs.debian.org/619236 The plan is to first have kboot-utils in the official archive and then make d-i install it when machine==PS3.

Backporting ZFS installer support to kreebsd
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello everyone (please keep CCs:), on behalf of the kreebsd porters I am trying to explore our possibilities to improve ZFS (installer) support in a future Squeeze point release. To achieve that, we would need to backport at least the following bug fixes and improvements. Note #635627 is already on its way to p-u (#637020): Bug # -- package -- title 635384 -- parted -- detection of ZFS volumes (ZVOL) 635398 -- partman-base -- humandev() support for ZFS volumes 637032 -- partman-target -- please allow /lib/modules mount points 635627 -- zfsutils -- zvol (ZFS volumes) should be available before checkroot.sh none -- partman-zfs -- Use a version 8 for volume management In agreement with kfreebsd's technology status [1] I think we can consider that possible for packages which are kfreebsd specific only. As you can see, it would also affect packages in Linux, in particular parted and partman (thus d-i). However, we don't expect any side effects on Linux, as it mostly touches paths used by kfreebsd systems only. I hereby request comments from maintainers of affected packages and the release team in particular.

Package: debian-installer Severity: wishlist *** Please type your report below this line *** Hi. For quite a while now, the linux-image-* packages have had support for the VMware modules such as vmxnet3 and vmw_pvscsi. However, the daily builds for the Debian installer do not. It would be very handy if at least the vmxnet3 and vmw_pvscsi modules were enabled by default in the businesscard/netinstaller ISO files. That way, new virtual machines created on VMware ESX/ESXi can use the VMXNET3 network adapter; and a Paravirtual SCSI controller on the boot drive. Without these modules, both the network and hard disk can't be detected at install time unless the slower E1000 network adapter and LSI SCSI controllers are used instead. The E1000 network adapter can easily be changed to a VMXNET3 adapter after the install, but the Paravirtual SCSI change on the boot device is non-trivial.

Bug#642179: debian-installer: Installs on drives larger than 2.19TB fails with older bios
This is failing with the current squeeze installer that uses grub2. What I don't know is if this is possibly a BIOS issue - my understanding is that Debian takes over and uses its own driver. This is on a Tyan S7002 which uses: # lspci |grep SATA 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) SATA AHCI Controller for the SATA controller.

Hello Developers, I recently installed the latest Debian/i386 on an older system to do some CFD number crunching with openfoam.

Debian testing netinst checksums do not match!
Hi, I've just downloaded the debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso file from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/ The checksums in MD5SUMS.small and SHA512SUMS.small do not match with the downloaded file! This either means I'm the target of a man-in-the-middle attack (which seems unlikely) or that the sums in the checksum files are incorrect. The build is from Thu Sep 22 15:26:29 UTC 2011. Output from md5sum and sha512sum (on Ubuntu 11.04, coreutils 8.5) matthijs@cerebro:~/Downloads$ md5sum -c MD5SUMS.small debian-testing-amd64-businesscard.iso: OK debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso: FAILED md5sum: WARNING: 1 of 2 computed checksums did NOT match matthijs@cerebro:~/Downloads$ sha512sum -c SHA512SUMS.small debian-testing-amd64-businesscard.iso: OK debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso: FAILED sha512sum: WARNING: 1 of 2 computed checksums did NOT match To be sure, I'm throwing the netinst CD away (I burned it before checking, doh).

There are innumerous conditions that could lead to an incomplete download, which will of course fail any checksum.
