Re: Generating a Lenny Netinst CD with a newer kernel
Prividing dummy packages for the two packages created an iso, which boots, and recognizes both the networking card (after adding the firmware from an usbstick to /lib/firmware), and the hard drive. :-) Now the only problem left to solve is to get a kernel form lenny_backports installed, so that the installed system will actually find it's root file system. Anyway, the problem of creating an iso is solved, sorry about the noise. 2009/6/5 Martin Gerdes : > Found a solution for at least a part of the problem: > > The file "sources.list.udeb.local" did not have the correct entries. > sources.list.udeb even contains the comment "# This file is > automatically generated, edit sources.list.udeb.local instead.", so my > bad.

Re: Generating a Lenny Netinst CD with a newer kernel
Found a solution for at least a part of the problem: The file "sources.list.udeb.local" did not have the correct entries. sources.list.udeb even contains the comment "# This file is automatically generated, edit sources.list.udeb.local instead.", so my bad. Must have been too late... Now all that is left is to resolve the dependencies: packages crypto-core-modules-2.6.29-2-amd64-di and efi-modules are missing.

Generating a Lenny Netinst CD with a newer kernel
Since the lenny netinst CD recognized neither the RAID controller, nor the networking card of our server (a dell poweredge r710), we decided to build ourselves a custom lenny installer cd using a newer installer kernel. We tried to follow these tutorials: https://lliurex.net/projects/valencia/lliurex-pool/browser/installer/trunk/debian-installer/doc/custom-kernel.txt?rev=3506 http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Modify/CustomKernel We used the kernel from lenny_backports (2.6.29). After figuring out that kernel-wedge had to be upgraded to its unstable version, we managed to build the udebs, and moved them to build/localudebs. We than found out that we had to uncomment monolithic in build/config/amd64.cfg to make the build_monolithic target available. However, "make build_monolithic" fails with "E: Konnte Paket acpi-modules-2.6.29-2-amd64-di nicht finden" (Transl.: could not find packet acpi-modules-2.6.29-2-amd64-di) Furthermore, there is a lot of stuff like "fat-modules-2.6.26-1-amd64-di" in the package list, even though we have only build udebs for 2.6.29, and changed the KERNELVESION parameter in build/config/amd64.cfg accordingly. We tried copying the line "deb copy:/usr/src/debian-installer-20090123lenny1/build/ localudebs/" from build/sources.list.udeb to /etc/apt/sources.list. Now we can download the module acpi-modules-2.6.29-2-amd64-di using normal apt-get. So the build script really _should_ find the packages, shouldn't it? What are we doing wrong? And what about the 2.6.26 packages?
