Bug#1006442: installation-report: mini-NAS v1 reinstalled with Buster 10.10 due to upgrade-failure

Dear Maintainer,


   * system-upgrade to Buster 10.11 failed as reported
 here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1006369
   * I did try out grub-rescue, but as far as I saw, the boot-loader was
 completely defective upon finishing the installation, so I tried:
#'grub-install' from my running Buster desktop-PC on the USB-stick
in question. Probably at first the options were not correct (=none),
so I was fighting in a lost case, on next try it was reported, that
XFS filesystem was the problem (probably true, does not happen for
the first time either during system-upgrade)
   * non-bootable system --> reinstallation necessary, but Buster 10.11
 netinstall ISO did not boot either, so one has to pick the second latest
 version: Buster 10.10

Comments/Problems:

   * I expect, that the mini-NAS system is going to be restored in a timely
 manner, because I preserved a full backup of the
 text-configuration:
 https://attachment.irregulaire.info/mini-NAS-etc.txz
[I see no security-concern in handing out this old-oldstable
private configuration infos to the public, although auto-updated only
yesterday, because my home-network cannot be reached from the
outside.]
   * nonetheless I felt trying out the system-upgrade would make sense, and
 even would nearly be necessary already, because I want to continue using
 a secure, up-to-date system, while security-updates for old-oldstable are
 probably going to be discontinued in the near future. So if you cannot
 upgrade, and re-installation is too difficult for you, you still have
 the option to integrate backports instead --> newer kernel, etc, but
 overall rather experimental, not officially supported
   * since this is an older, outdated system, I will continue without the
 print-server functionality, and without apt-cacher, since the
 backup-storage function is the essential one. [and my old parport
 laserjet printer went defective anyway during corona-crisis]
   * possibly some more details to come...

Dear Maintainer,

Testing branch is generally not for productive use, so I should probably say,
this is level 4, wishlist only, but my impression is that some of the
disadvantages were chronified already, and you probably should not let them
migrate into a stable status:

Comments/Problems:

Bulls-Eye testing as been running for several months initially graphics were
not workable, but login with x2go worked over the VESA-driver. Now I think
the situation is different, openchrome graphics-driver might be workable, but
it does not make much difference for remote-desktops:

Comments/Problems:

Mini-NAS v2 has a harddisk-capacity of 2TB, they had been populated partially
earlier, while the device was still running the testing-version of buster.
In order to keep somethig in reserve, I am using a 1.5 TB partition for
NFS-data. 
The system-root disk is /dev/sdc, and it has about 20 GB of disk-space laft o
use for apt-cacher most probably, RAM-upgrade is not even necessary.

Services running now are:
* NFS
* smartd
* SSHD
* openntpd ntp-proxy for local net
* dnsmasq cache serving hosts-file to local net ( is nice and handy,
  but does not work in combination with resolvconf )

yet to do:
* apt-cacher
* print-server, once I should have a reasonably new USB-printer

It is sufficient to use the free-section of repositories only, non-free is
dispensable so far.

/etc/sysctl.conf has this entry:

> vm.swappiness=10 

System works well enough so far, can be considered well enough tested, but
2TB-disks seem to be slightly less performant than 1TB-models, and they are

Now something else seems to be going wrong, as this is turning into an

But how was it possible to fit everything into a 5GB filesystem-root??

Comments/Problems:

My initial problem with this thin-client was the BIOS-password, so I took the
box apart and removed the RTC-battery in order to reset it, but this was not
workable. The password seems to be hardcoded, not secret thought, but
generally known as "Fireport". One can clearly spare the effort, trying to
reset this. Installation was good although without non-free packages only.
Trying to set up non-free firmware throws the following error:

There is only the base-system set up now, without non-free packages xserver
will probably not work, you have to go without proper graphics, at least
graphics are not accelerated.

This box was not supposed to be used as a desktop-system anyway, but in fact
I had in mind to use it as new NAS, degrade the old VIA-based NAS to a
dedicated backup-server and to build a new 2TB-NAS based on the dell-client.
The debian BTRFS-NAS worked so well with asymmetric RAID1, that I would do it
again, fit one slim disk inside, and attach the second one externally via USB.
The internal flash-module with the original OS is fitted into a combined SATA-
and power-jack similarly to HP-t555. Slim disks are 7mm thick, so one could
have up to 2 TB currently.

FreeNAS distribution requires at least 8 GB RAM, which is off limits for this
small box.

Bug#902870: USB-3 controller not workable with Linux 4.16 or 4.15 respectively

2018-07-04 Thread andrew glaeser

The problem appears like this:

> [2.672381] xhci_hcd :02:00.0: Refused to change power state,
> currently in D3 [2.672452] xhci_hcd :02:00.0: xHCI Host Controller

> [2.672533] xhci_hcd :02:00.0: init :02:00.0 fail, -19

The USB3-controller worked and was hot-pluggable with stock kernel 4.9, but
not with kernel 4.16, with ubuntu 18.04 it is exactly the same thing, there
are several offerings regarding the issue on the web, but the fix does not
seem to be trivial, at least I cannot see the solution yet:

It is the xhci_pci module:

> > 02:00.0 0c03: 1912:0015 (rev ff) (prog-if ff)
> > !!! Unknown header type 7f
> > Kernel modules: xhci_pci

Bug#902870: fear uncentainty and doubt

2018-07-03 Thread andrew glaeser

Hash: SHA1


WD is guilty of making and selling no-linux harddisks, but no-linux
USB-sticks also exist, in a way it is understandable, because the idea of
the manufacturer was not in the first place to give the cheapest possible SSD
to linux-users for their PCs, but the USB-disks were in the first place
portable mobile mass-storage, and nobody promised, they are generally usable
harddisk-replacements.
You really have to be careful in this respect.
If you are following me, we kind of stumbled and tumbled down the stairs in
this building from the third floor to the second floor, now we want to
accelerate things even more and plainly fall and roll down the stairs to the
first floor, so we perspectively are going to reach the ground-level and
find the exit.
Here is the remaining hardware-info, well this system is about 10 years old,
and also free software in general and in itself is a great concept, we
cannot yet take a few pieces of old scrap-metal and make a formula-one car
from them with the software alone, it obviously would be a bit more expensive
to do that.

Comments/Problems:

This is a quite compact PC, my former build- and virt-server,  for my
sponsoring family, who enabled me to do what I am interested in myself
_all_of_the_time_, without being too poor and too limited financially. It is
going to run with Ubuntu-Mate 18.04 LTS, should work according to my
estimation, low-profile USB3 controller-card was added (recommended).
First problem I encountered, was that the PC was by default equipped with a
non-linux haddrive, it just would not boot the kernel with GRUB, but simply
blocked and did nothing at all or threw error-messages, a System from the
Vista-era, the original disk was: MDL: WD1600AAJS - 75M0A0, S/N: WD -
WMAV3D340689
The disk was replaced with a smaller Seagate-disk, which resolved the
boot-issue, works just fine now.
Because of the boot-problems I fell back to Debian stable 9.4 and found there
is still the problem of missing flexibility, like in this case, when there is
no harddisk-boot possible, one would like to boot from USB-disk instead, but
this becomes problematic, when you install from USB onto another USB-disk, I
mentioned the problem in an earlier report already.
If you remove the installation-medium, the device-name of the second
USB-disk changes, so GRUB will not boot anymore, one has to work around the
issue by editing the menu-entry manually say change the root-partition from
sdc1 to sdb1, then upon successful boot run update-grub, so the change
becomes permanent (or run update-grub as root before removing the
install-disk).
So it is possible to work around, but too complicated for most people,
please try to fix this for the upcoming Buster-release.
