Bug#610524: Preseed: Debian Installer asks for keyboard-configuration/variant

2012-02-26 Thread Samuel Thibault
Hello,

I believe this should be fixed by the completion of switching to
console-setup, which was done a few days ago.

Adam Baxter, le Sat 06 Aug 2011 17:57:25 +1000, a écrit :
 Currently, you must pass the string locale=en_US to the kernel or
 you'll be prompted for language.
 Also console-keymaps-at/keymap=us to the kernel or you'll be prompted
 for the keyboard.

This is expected and documented in the installation manual, sections
B.1.1 (Preseeding methods) which explains the issue, B.2.2 (Using boot
parameters to preseed questions) which you just described, and B.2.3
(Auto mode) which permits to preseed them.

Samuel

reassign 610524 keyboard-configuration
thanks

 i am using the following two images:
 
 http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/multi-arch/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-i386-netinst.iso
 
 http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/squeeze_di_rc2/i386/iso-cd/debian-squeeze-di-rc2-i386-netinst.iso
 
 I also added the following line to isolinux/txt.cfg and remastered the
 image to save some typing.
 
 label basic
   menu label ^Install (basic)
   kernel /install.386/vmlinuz
   append auto=true priority=critical vga=791
 file=/cdrom/preseed/basic.cfg initrd=/install.386/initrd.gz
 DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 -- quiet

Ok, it helps a lot to have an idea what it might be happening when
you give more details. Since you were talking about console-setup
configuration I thought you were using the gtk image (which uses
console-setup for keyboard configuration instead of kbdchooser), and was
thus testing that, which would actually prevent the bug from happening.
According to your screenshot, the question is actually asked by the
_installed_ keyboard-configuration, which doesn't get enough information
from d-i to know which variant to choose.

That being said, I'm still unable to reproduce the issue.

I have
- taken 
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/squeeze_di_rc2/i386/iso-cd/debian-squeeze-di-rc2-i386-netinst.iso
 ,
- put your basic.cfg into preseed/ ,
- appended file=/cdrom/preseed/basic.cfg to the kernel command line in txt.cfg ,
- rebuilt the image using genisoimage,
- booted it,
- chosen the text installer,
- chosen German
- chosen Deutschland
- chosen Deutsch keyboard

From then on everything happens up to rebooting into a freshly installed
system.  I have also tried with english/US/german, and english/US/USA,
still the same.  Where is the difference?  (Maybe you could upload the
image you have produced, to make sure we have at least the same image).

 Ah. But usually, in bug reports, you're supposed to provide what is
 supposed to work but doesn't, not only the workaround that happens to
 work.
 
 You asked me, if
 there are any problems when i only use the parameter
 keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap select de. In my tests the parameter
 keyboard-configuration/variant select Deutschland was necessary.
 
 In my tests it was not. Here is the preseed file I've used today: I've
 j st changed the mirror and defined xkb-keymap only. I have added it as
 /preseed.cfg to the gtk initrd of squeeze rc2 businesscard i386, booted
 with the kernel, it all installs by itself.

i did some tests and used the daily and rc2 iso of squeeze, but i am
always getting asked for the keyboard layout.

I have attached the config, a screenshot and a part of the syslog.

i think there is a litte misunderstanding, here.

My preseed config works, because it already includes the parameter

If you like, i can retry the installation with and without the

 unfortunately that is not enough. The parmeter d-i
 keyboard-configuration/variant select Deutschland is necessary.
 
 The following config works for me.

But the problem is that it shouldn't be needed, because xkb-keymap
provides a value for layout and sets it as seen.

And it is indeed not needed for me in my tests. What I'm doing is
booting with the following parameter given on the kernel command line:

keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap=de

I never get asked for the variant. Could you perhaps post your whole
preseed file (with passwords replaced with foobar), so I can test with
exactly the same parameters?

Bug#610524: Preseed: Debian Installer asks for keyboard-configuration/variant

2011-01-19 Thread Dennis Hoppe
Package: debian-installer
Version: 20110106+b1
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

the Debian Installer at the current daily squeeze build asks for the
parameter keyboard-configuration/variant.

I have added the following line to my preseed config, but it would be
nice if those changes would be mentioned at the preseed_example.txt on
http://www.debian.org/releases/testing/example-preseed.txt.

keyboard-configuration keyboard-configuration/variant select Deutschland

Regards, Dennis

Yes, apparently, there's no example about keyboard-configuration in
the pressed documentation in the Installation Guide.

I'm unsure where the example-preseed.txt file which you mention comes
from, though. At least it is not in the installation guide.

 Yes, apparently, there's no example about keyboard-configuration in
 the pressed documentation in the Installation Guide.

I have added some the other day.

Dennis, can you confirm that

d-i console-keymaps-at/keymap select us
d-i keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap select us

is enough?

 I'm unsure where the example-preseed.txt file which you mention comes
 from, though. At least it is not in the installation guide.

It's generated from the installation guide:

./build/buildweb.sh:./preseed.pl -r $manual_release $PRESEED 
$destination/example-preseed.txt

That just needs to get done to update the file mentioned above.

Samuel
