A 32 bit PV Xen guest must have PAE (large physical addressing) enabled
in the kernel and so the 32 bit the netboot/xen image uses a PAE kernel.
The plain netboot kernel is a 486 non-PAE kernel for compatibility with
the widest range of native machines.

There is no PAE/non-PAE distinction on 64 bit, all 64 bit kernels are
effectively PAE already. So on 64 bit netboot/xen is actually just a
symlink to the regular netboot, the only reason it exists really is for
parity with 32 bit (i.e. it's easier to just unconditionally say "use
netboot/xen on xen").

If that's an issue for anyone, please let me know asap; otherwise I'll
aim to get an announcement sent out in the next day or so.

I can do an alpha build of CDs whenever they're desired, just let me
know when things are looking ready.

Ah, I'd somewhat assumed that Otavio's "Steve, yey!" above meant that
he'd already talked to you about that. :-/ 

>From the -release side, I think we should get on with producing and
testing images asap.  Forgive my ignorance on the d-i side, but is there
an easily accessible / parseable list of reported issues with the
dailies which might be considered "show stoppers"?  I guess they'd have
to be fairly severe to be blockers for an alpha though.

Adam

2012-04-29 Thread Julien Cristau
Source: libglib2.0-udeb
Version: 2.32.1-1
Severity: grave
Tags: d-i
Justification: renders package unusable

What $subject says.  Please double check stuff when adding new
dependencies.  And probably disable the libelf stuff for the udeb build
if possible.
