Bug#1052304: kafs failure testing
I spent a couple days bisecting kernels attempting to isolate this bug to a specific kernel. What I found was that the simple test that I included in the initial bug report, i.e. ls /afs/ca-zephyr.org, is not sufficient to test for failure. This test can succeed multiple times and then sometime later fail. Which meant that my bisection attempts where pretty much useless. I will work on a better test for this issue.

Bug#866952: xen-system-amd64: Xen 4.8 Install on Stretch Crashes on Boot
Package: xen-system-amd64 Version: 4.8.1-1+deb9u1 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Initially an attempt was made to upgrade an existing Jessie Xen 4.4 system to Stretch Xen 4.8. When that failed I decided to start with a fresh Stretch install. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? - First, I just replaced 'jessie' with 'stretch' in sources.list and ran 'apt-get dist-upgrade'. The resulting system crashed on boot. - Second, I installed a new stretch system, updated my puppet manifest to support Xen 4.8, ran puppet, and rebooted. The resulting system crashed on boot exactly the same as my first attempt. - Third, I installed a new stretch system and installed only the xen-system-amd64 package. The resulting system crashed on boot exactly the same as my first attempt. * What was the outcome of this action? Here is the output captured from a serial console connection.

Bug#633652: emacs on a text console - please help me overcome the shock

But that's the way it must be here on Debian, if you are root. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=633652 My question is how do all those high powered Debian Developers cope? Don't tell me they don't use emacs. Or not as root. Not even when administering their system? If you are truly using the console then it is likely that some of the issues have nothing to do with emacs and everything to do with the console terminal emulation. At a base level emacs is depending on escape sequences to move the cursor around, but I expect it is doing a lot fancier things that only a good terminal emulator will keep up with. And I would add that I don't really want anyone working on improving console terminal emulation---there are too many other things to do that need to be done and no one spends much time on the console these days. As a side note I really hate modal editors like vi and its decendents, but I know enough of it to be able to work on consoles when emacs is not installed yet or the terminal emulation is not up to it. It is just part of managing the system in my view. Finally, when I am editing text I find that a mouse slows everything down. I do just fine with character cell xterms and no mouse. I do think it is worth getting color to work when possible. The syntax highlighting helps me spot stupid errors early.
