Bug#570767: d-i-bootimages missing, needed for pxe out of the box setup
package: debian-edu severity: important tags: moreinfo User: debian-edu@lists.debian.org Usertags: debian-edu Hi, the Debian Edu Lenny release currently sets up PXE booting out of the box, by making use of a d-i-bootimages package, which is not available in Debian. This is annoying as PXE booting is a quite a nice feature and having the d-i bootimages on the DVD is needed as we want to fully support DVD installations without network. This bug lacks important information and context, but should serve as a means to track and fix this for squeeze. cheers, Holger signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#570770: Debian Edu squeeze images
package: cdimage.debian.org severity: wishlist User: debian-edu@lists.debian.org Usertags: debian-edu x-debbugs-cc: debian-edu@lists.debian.org, Ronny Aasen ro...@skolelinux.no Hi, as discussed several times already we would like to build Debian Edu images with the same tools on the same box as the regular Debian images are build, and to make them available just like all the others. Debian Edu is currently available for i386, amd64 and powerpc, for our Lenny release we released three images: a double-layer source DVD (5.3GiB or so), a regular DVD for amd64+i386 and a combined netinst-cd type for amd+i386+powerpc. For Squeeze doing roughly the same seems sensible, though maybe an additional sid CD image would be nice. For setting it up and debugging problems, Ronny Aasen and me would like to get access to the machine to do the dirty work. Currently our build setup is managed in svn and we use a patched version of debian-cd. Obviously our goal is to get rid of the patches ;-) What VCS are you using, are you using one? ;) Do you have documentation? We have http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/MagicCDBuild and our stuff is in svn://svn.debian.org/svn/debian-edu/trunk/src/build/CD-administrator Ronny is a long time Debian Edu contributor, developer, CD build master and ftp archive maintainer. He's sadly neither a DD nor DM (he claims it's because of this internet-meme called RL that he has no time for that..), his GPG key id is 0xEC91AE3A. (I would have sworn I've signed his key.) Assuming you like the idea, how to we proceed from here? cheers, Holger signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Bug#570772: squeeze: partition sizes to small for recommended packages
[Holger Levsen] Default partition sizes are too small for workstation+thin-client-server installation (/opt, /var/ and /usr/ are too full). The cause is probably that all recommended packages are installed, and this require more space. There are three strategies for solving this: - Clean up recommends in Debian packages, to avoid installing so many packages. An example of such issue is fluid-soundfont-gm recommending fluid-soundfont-gs, while we only want to install one of them. - Change how we install packages, asking tasksel and other parts of d-i to not install recommended packages. I believe this is straight forward, but then we do not get the recommended packages we might want to have installed. - Extend partition sizes to make room for the extra packages, which will increase the disk space requirement and make it harder for us testing the installation in virtual machines (I do not have more space to spend on the virtual disk. :). I suggest we try to implement them in that order, and see how far we get by asking for recommended packages to be changed to suggests where it make sense before we decide if we should drop recommended packages during installation or extend the default partition sizes. I suspect changing a few huge packages might be enough (the sound fonts packages are enormous. :).

Not quite sure why this is filed against the metapackage and not the d-e-install package. Anyway...

[Nigel Barker] so Petter, if I don't have a combo-tjener, can I still have diskless on the 192. of an ltspserver? Do I have to do ltsp-make-client? Or is it just a question of changing the pxe link? Sure, it just will not be set up out of the box. But as is mentioned briefly in URL: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Lenny/HowTo/NetworkClients#IntroductiontoThinclientsandDisklessworkstations , to do that you need to add '3' as a kernel argument in /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default to change the defaults for clients on the thin client network. Please update the documentation to make it clearer when you have tested this. If you want to boot diskless workstations on the main network (10.0.2.0/23) for a separate thin client server, you need to change the files in /var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/ to refer to the separate thin client server.
