booting Debian default kernel with lilo results in kernel panic

2021-06-29 Thread Fourhundred Thecat

Hello,

On Debian 10, I am using custom kernel, with lilo boot loader.

Now I want to boot the default Debian distribution kernel. I have
installed the debian kernel image:

  apt-get install linux-image-amd64

and added the entry to /etc/lilo.conf. Now my lilo.conf looks like this:

  https://justpaste.it/99qsr

However, when I boot this kernel, I get kernel panic:

  https://paste.pics/53199721ee9a9f7e4e6fea9e2a8fd7dc

What am I doing  wrong?

How can I boot Debian kernel with lilo?

thanks,

thanks, but unfortunately that does not work. I have added these to my
preseeding file:

  d-i base-installer/includes sysvinit-core
  d-i base-installer/excludes systemd systemd-sysv

but systemd still is installed, and sysvinit-core is not installed




modifying debian installer image

2017-08-08 Thread Fourhundred Thecat
I have downloaded debian netinstaller:

wget
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/debian-installer/amd64/initrd.gz

I have unpacked the image, and I was looking around to try to understand
how it works. I assumed, there was some config file with a list of all
the packages that are going to be installed.

I would like to modify that list, and replace systemd with sysvinit-core.

I don't see any such package list in the installer, and I could not find
much information on how the installer works.

Could somebody please help me understand, where the installer gets the
list of packages it installs ? And how I can change that list?

PS: I know I can remove systemd and install sysvinit-core *after* the
installation. But I am trying to avoid installing systemd and then
removing it. I would like to install sysvinit-core right away.

I am also using preseeding for installation, but as far as I know, this
cannot be achieved with preseeding alone.

thanks,
