Bug#721578: debian-installer: LVM + ZFS fails to work
reassign 721578 partman-zfs thanks Quoting Dan Greene (dan-gre...@wi.rr.com): At this point, there was an error message, but there didn't seem to be anything related to ZFS in /var/log/messages. I chose to contiune the installation, and the partitioning screen recognized those partitions as ZFS. However, those partitions weren't mounted at the next stage, and the installation failed when trying to install the kernel due to lack of space. Hello, ZFS on Linux is still work in progress. Recent changes were committed and uploaded but I'm unsure whether everything in Debian is ready for ZFS support, which includes the installer.

Bug#721578: debian-installer: LVM + ZFS fails to work
Hi, On 02/09/13 02:38, Dan Greene wrote: In the installer: Did guided partitioning using LVM, with seperate /usr, /home, /tmp, and /var. Choose Configure ZFS, configuring /usr, /hone, and /var to use zfs. That's not a sensible setup, by the way. Only a single partition is needed to form a ZFS 'pool', and then ZFS allocates its own 'logical volumes' (usr, home, var...) out of that. So, ZFS more or less replaces LVM functionality. Maybe there ought to be a 'Guided partitioning using ZFS' option... That's not to say it absolutely cannot work. I'm not sure. There could be a valid use case if someone merely wants to try ZFS and dual-boot it, if their entire disk is already LVM. What does work well is using LVM logical volumes as virtual hard disks for a Xen or KVM guest for example.

RE: Tajik Language - Adding support for a new language
Hello everyone! Just would like to inform that Tajik translation for Debian installer is now 100%! Hope to see full Tajik version for the Debian installer soon, including OSs like Ubuntu and others.

Bug#721578: debian-installer: LVM + ZFS fails to work
Steven Chamberlain: So, ZFS more or less replaces LVM functionality. Maybe there ought to be a 'Guided partitioning using ZFS' option... Yes, of course. Adding this to partman-zfs is not trivial though (most of partman-zfs mimics partman-lvm, but this part required extra work and I didn't have time when I did the initial port). That's not to say it absolutely cannot work. I'm not sure. There could be a valid use case if someone merely wants to try ZFS and dual-boot it, if their entire disk is already LVM. What does work well is using LVM logical volumes as virtual hard disks for a Xen or KVM guest for example. Note that LVM support (with readonly metadata) in kFreeBSD D-I is still incomplete. Most of the pieces are there though, I think you just need to manually load the geom_lvm kernel modules. -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I decided to install Debian on a new disk drive and preserve the Windows installation on the original drive. I downloaded the latest i386 netinst ISO image of Debian Installer, burned it on a DVD and booted off it. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I chose the new drive for simple partitioning. I chose to install Grub2 in MBR of the original drive. * What was the outcome of this action? I did not see Windows as a boot option. (This took a worse turn when the udev in the initial RAM disk image loaded a kernel module radeon for my video card ATI Radeon HD 3600, apparently in an attempt to provide a frame buffer for the text mode, and the video card showed garbage. It took a while to add an option blacklist=radeon to the kernel command line at boot time and add a line blacklist radeon to a file in /etc/modprobe.d). * What outcome did you expect instead? I expected to see a boot option to start from a partition in the original disk drive. Here is how I worked around the issue. I booted off the netinst DVD into a rescue mode. Ran update-grub and it did not show the Windows partition of the original drive. Inspected the output of os-prober. I believe it did not show Windows either. I then ran fdisk -l and I think I saw my original disk drive with its Windows partition. After inspecting os-prober I figured it depended on the list of mounted partitions. I added the Windows partition to /etc/fstab, /dev/sda1 /c ntfsauto0 0 Unfortunately, mount /c failed because the target root partition where I chrooted did not have modules of the rescue kernel. I cannot remember how I succeeded in mounting the partition before re-running update-grub. Perhaps, I returned or rebooted to the dialogs of the rescue mode of Debian Installer and chose to re-configure Grub2 in the dialogs. I could see my Windows partition of the original drive in the bootloader's list at boot time. I could successfully start Windows. Here is my opinion on a possible root cause. It seems that Debian Installer does not attempt to mount partitions on drives other than the one selected for partitioning. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash ---End Message--- ---BeginMessage--- reassign 619236 debian-installer severity 619236 normal reassign 705484 debian-installer thanks Hi, thank you for submitting installation reports, much appreciated.

Well, given the very broad statement without any clear indication to which sub issue you are referring it is hard to see which part should be reopened / which was closed incorrectly. And I'm not going to zap the disk for a possible new bug report which might simply get closed again without comment in 2015 or so. Disappointed. Helge [1] #715529 is a possible case for this.

Bug#721627: debian-installer: cannot install bootloader when multiple disks are present
Package: debian-installer Severity: important Hello, I am installing Debian Wheezy from a mini iso on an USB thumb drive (sda) to internal SATA harddisk (sdd). sdb and sdc are possibly non-existent floppies or something. When I get to installing grub the installer insists on installing to sda which - is bogus because I need the bootloader on sdd which has the system on it - fails because sda does not have a PC partition table Please make Debian installeble from USB thumb drive.

Bug#633306: closed by Holger Levsen hol...@layer-acht.org (dealing with old installation-reports)
Hi Helge, I'm sorry the text you replied you disappointed you, as it just was a template text which I've used to close quite some bugs. The parts mostly applicable to 633306 were: On Montag, 2. September 2013, Helge Kreutzmann wrote: - they have been from a development phase where things were not stable and/or and - they are quite old (and thus likely fixed today) and/or so, dear submitter: is 633306 fixed with the wheezy images? with current sid ones? As said: it's easy to reopen and I'll happily do so, If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply (it's easy to reopen and I'll do if requested) or just file a new one - thats often better, as the bug log will be clearer and shorter and not contain cruft. Well, given the very broad statement without any clear indication to which sub issue you are referring it is hard to see which part should be reopened / which was closed incorrectly. As you will know, it's possible to clone bugs. You can even do this yourself. And then use bug titles... And I'm not going to zap the disk for a possible new bug report which might simply get closed again without comment in 2015 or so. Disappointed. If you care so much about 633306, why wasnt there a reply from you to this bug since 2 years? The complete silence on this bug since it was filed _plus_ the fact that it mixes 5 issues _plus_ that it was from early wheezy development, made me conclude its best to close it. If there are still issues present today, new bug reports are best. cheers, Holger trying to make useful bugs visible: http://qa.debian.org/data/bts/graphs/multi/installation-reports,debian-installer,.png signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

It would quite probably be easier to do stable first, despite the above. We have a few packages in both p-u and o-p-u currently which are newer upstream versions (mostly via security), such that p-u o-p-u stable oldstable. If the oldstable point release occurs first, we either have to not include those packages until 6.0.9 or temporarily have oldstable stable, which is at best confusing. (We've been in the latter situation previously, for 5.0.9 / 6.0.3, and after some debate on the day decided to include the packages in any case; I'm not sure we should take that as precedent, however.)
