Can you sponsor the upload [1] already? This won't add the package
to the installer, but we will decide to have it include in bullseye

Cool. I've revisited it and I have it working in a Virtual Machine.
Will try a physical ASAP, but I think it's ready for testing.

I wasn't aware that there is no f2fs support in libparted yet - thanks for
doing that. I hope your patch gets reviewed soon.

Hi Steve,
It's been quite some time since we last talked about the F2FS module for d-i.
Since then Romain Perier updated the mount options for Linux 5.5 and (some
other things). Today I looked into it, and I finally build the udeb!
Salsa Repo:
I haven't done a lot since my last reply here, meaning the code on my salsa
probably works but I didn't have time to build and test it. If you want to help
out, you can take a look at my code and test it, here is the repo:

No worries! I can't even test it myself in the couple of weeks anyway.

. I read the kernel documentation for F2FS and found all
the mount options, however I compared it with btrfs & xfs and it looks like
it's not simply a copy of all mount options provided by the kernel. I couldn't
find any documentation how the d-i handles this file, so could you (or someone
else
anyway. Would love to hear some feedback!

I can look into it, but I've done anything like that so no promises. Can you
send me the link for git repo of the ext4 module?

Stephan

Since bullseye has grub2 2.04-4, which supports F2FS, the Debian installer
should also allows users to install a system with F2FS as root. Maybe helpful
for devices with slow flash memory like eMMC.
