Bug#718761: flash-kernel: 'root=' kernel param ignored when flash-kernel package is installed

2013-08-11 Thread Martin Michlmayr
Copying Loïc Minier.

* Erik Speckman especkman+report...@gmail.com [2013-08-04 23:45]:
 8. Read through mkinitramfs scripts and found that a hook installed by the 
 flash-kernel package was responsible for the hook script that was setting 
 root=/dev/root in conf/param.con.

 If flash-kernel isn't necessary/required on my device, I would expect it to 
 detect that fact rather than rendering my system in an unbootable state.

How about this?  Erik, can you test the patch?

Bug#719411: tasksel: Standard out-of-the-box configuration as a router

2013-08-11 Thread ST
Package: tasksel
Version: 3.14.1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Debian Installer (through tasksel) allows to tune the software for certain
specific use cases, such as Web server, Mail server, Print and SQL server, etc.
It would be very nice to have in this list the Router option, which will
install all the relevant packages and configure them accordingly for the
computer to become a router. It should have WiFi support and turn the computer
into an Access Point and it should also support DSL and other modems.
Motivation: there are a lot of small, low-power computers out there which are
intended for 24/7 use (see Utilite, Raspberry Pi, Beaglebone, Olinuxino, etc).
Many of them are actually cheaper and much more powerful than todays DSL-
WiFi/Routers. So if Debian provides an easy way to configure them as
routers/AccessPoints people will get cheap and powerful routers that could be
used for a variety of other cases such as home automation, etc. Web UI/GUI for
configuration might be nice at some point but its lack should not prevent the
feature from being released.

Thank you!

Hello,

The suggestion is interesting, however, it lacks the mention of the
packages you would consider as needed. Please notice that tasksel
itself is only a convenient way to install some related packages, not
really to configure them for specific needs.

So, what it can do is only installing what you would consider as
needed for a router.

On the other hand, what you're suggesting seems somehow relevant to
the FreedomBox idea and may better belong to packages provided
inside this project.

 Hi all,

Hi

 Add the mount option 'discard' for ext4 filesystems so, during
 partitioning, TRIM can be activated for SSDs in the installed
 system.

 I enabled that on ext4 on my SSD, and had two lockups in 24 hours.
 No lockups since turning it off, so I don't consider it safe yet at all.

 The man page seems to indicate it is very much in the testing phase at
 this point.

I guess it's got stabilised in the later kernels, could you try it again?

Cheers

Luk
