 Hey list,
 
 as some of you may have noticed, I am working on a status-page for
 2nd-stage installer packages. I think it's running fine now:
 
   http://people.debian.org/~seppy/d-i/2nd-stage/

Danke sehr for the great work, two n Dennis.

The doc/translations.txt already mentions your page.

I'm in the process of trying to finalize the 2nd-stage package list.

Bug#237531: debconf should be configured with base-config

2004-03-12 Thread Christian Perrier
reassign 237531 base-config
tags 237531 d-i
severity 237531 wishlist
thanks

Quoting Florian Effenberger ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
 Package: base-config
 Version: 2.14
 
 debconf should be configured (dpkg-reconfigure debconf) with base-config to
 choose the question priority.

This wishlist bug is similar, but not exactly the same, than to one I
already filed against base-config (re-ask debconf priority after
debconf finishes if priority is not high).

The idea of my BR was that users often fall down to the medium
priority during the installation process, because of errors or
whatever elese, which may not be what they want for their final
system.

However, in my opinion, if the installation was successful all along,
the debconf priority is then high and remains so. Florian suggests
that this priority should be ask anyway.

This suggestion is interesting also : after all, it may be common that
people want a low question installation process but then wish to
install additionnal packages with more control.

Bug#237534: inst report: lots of partman and LVM issues

2004-03-12 Thread Christian Perrier
Quoting Joey Hess ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):

  Not sure.  Maybe Partition disks and Partition disks (cfdisk)
  since cfdisk might be a term people understand... but that's not ideal
  either.  I'm sorry I don't have a good solution either. :/
 
 cfdisk is not used on all architectures. There's also the queston of
 what to call partconf.

In another thread, I suggested Partition disks (expert) for partconf
and Partition disks alone for partman.

That way, all partman-supported archs will have a quite clear choice
and non partman supported archs will only have expert which is not
really a problem as these architectures are indeed often used by
experts..:-)

Moreover, the choice will only be shown at medium priority which is
already a choice for experts

This terminology is the one I've already seen in RedHat 8 as far as I
remember.

 Oh, I wrote 83... yes, that's a typo.  It definitely was 8e/LVM (grrr,
 just typed 83 again ;).
 
  lvm2 isn't in the 2.4 series kernels is it?).
 
 Yes, it is.  At least our Debian kernel has it.  (It might be in
 2.4.25 upstream now, not sure; but we had it since 2.4.24 or so.)

Hmm, okay. I just read Joey's email with deadlines for udeb changes. I'm not
sure if I'm going to be able to retest an LVM install to see if I can
reproduce your problems between now and then. If lvm10 and lvm2 will coexist
(which I think they can) it might be worthwhile altering the postinst for
lvmcfg to install both packages and getting it in for beta3.

I would strongly recommend to use the real names somewhere in the

 eg.  
  Partition disks, recommended tool (partman)
  Partition disks (partconf)
  Partition disks (cfdisk)
so I would support Joey's idea, even if he doesn't seem to like it :-)
I'm not so clear about what to show when (priority, arch), because all I
know is i386


Somewhat off-topic, but also a description thing:

would it seem reasonable to add another boot method (don't know a better
term) to d-i like so

NameSetting  Description
linux   DEBCONF_PRIORITY=highminimum questions asked (recommended)
custom  DEBCONF_PRIORITY=medium  more options on bootloader, networking, file systems
expert  DEBCONF_PRIORITY=low full control especially on hw and kernel modules

Excuse: I see that often we have to tell folks use:
DEBCONF_PRIORITY=medium, which is awkward to type on a foreign keyboard
anyway.  We could, if enough like it, add Name and Description above the
first prompt. Maybe that lead to lesser people pressing 'F1' to read the
help, I don't know.


  That way, all partman-supported archs will have a quite clear choice
  and non partman supported archs will only have expert which is not

How to update /etc/environment

2004-03-12 Thread Petter Reinholdtsen
[Denis Barbier]
 So writing all variables at the same time is the simplest solution.
 How do you create /etc/environment?

The proxy settings are inserted using cfengine, while the language
settings are inserted using a perl script.  This is the cfengine rules:

   # Enable proxy by default, but drop it on standalone until squid is
# configured on standalone
{ /etc/environment
  AutoCreate
  AppendIfNoSuchLine http_proxy=http://webcache:3128;
  AppendIfNoSuchLine ftp_proxy=http://webcache:3128;
}

The perl script is in the locale-config-skolelinux package available
from APT source 'deb ftp://ftp.skolelinux.no/skolelinux/ woody local'.

1. Debian has a name and a font.  The ones which get this wrong can be 
rejected immediately.  That means the logos by Matthew A Nicholson and

My patch creates /etc/environment if it does not exist because, given

exists before base-config is launched in your case, this wishlist

Bug#237604: installation-reports: AlphaServer 1000A: Syslogd not running, CD-Rom not detected

2004-03-12 Thread Ralph Aichinger
Package: installation-reports
Version: N/A
Severity: important

System Information: 
AlphaServer 1000A/266, CD-Rom RRD45 as device DKA400 in firmware
It is  connected to pka, the QLogic ISP10x0 in this machine,
not to the NCR 53C810.
This machine has 64MB RAM.

Images used:
Netboot-Businesscard-Images from 10Mar04, also tried with
the same image from 8Mar04.

I boot configuration 0 in aboot, 
boot/cdrom-linux ramdisk_size 16384 initrd=/boot/cdrom-initrd.gz,
root=/dev/ram devfs=mount,dall

Problems:

1. Syslogd is not running (I suppose it should, as virtual console
   4 tells me tail /var/log/syslog: no such file or directory.

   When started manually, it runs fine.

2. CD-Rom is not being mounted. Already described this in 
   http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2004/debian-boot-200403/msg01024.html

   Additional information: From the log:
   user.notice cdrom-detect: Searching for Debian installation media ...
   Basically the CD-Rom can't be mounted from the menu, but 
   works fine manually.

Bug#237603: My computer hangs when discover loads parport_pc and I don't have a parport

2004-03-12 Thread Carlos Perell Marn
Package: discover
Version: 1.5-2
Severity: critical
Tags: sid
Justification: breaks the whole system

The kernel module parport_pc.o hangs my computers (imac TFT 15 and
Tibook G4). I have filed a bug report about it to kernel-image. The
problem is that discover loads that module on boot always but those
PowerMac computer don't have a parport. Discover should load only
drivers to handle devices I have, shouldn't it?

Cheers.

Comments/Problems:

OK no big deal to have it working on a i386 box, but whatever it is
worth another installation report. So, everything has gone very
smooth. I am no wizard at all, this was only my second debian
installation (last one with the classic method a couple of years
ago). Within 3 hours my box was configured and ready to go (thanks to
my company network connection). First time, btw, I used a precompiled
kernel. It works fine despite its howfully heavy...  
Anyway, manythanks to the debian installer team, it is nearly ready to
be put into hands of busy people. If one thing, maybe a bit more of
interactive help would be welcome. Meaning that for instance it took
me ages (I am certainly among busy people) before finding out that I
had to mark a partition as To be formated before to be able to
assign a type to it.  
My gosh I was expecting a lot of trouble and few days sweeting on my
box. Thanks.

Etienne.

Bug#237610: installer creates only DES encrypted passwords

2004-03-12 Thread Florian Effenberger
The installer asks the password for root and optionally the password for the
normal user account. These passwords are saved in /etc/shadow.

However, they are NOT encrypted with MD5 (i.e. strings beginning with $1$ in
/etc/shadow), but with DES. When you change passwords via passwd, they are
encrypted using MD5 correctly.

Bug#237610: installer creates only DES encrypted passwords

2004-03-12 Thread Florian Effenberger
Sorry for the confusion ;)

What I meant was that passwd after installation CORRECTLY creates MD5 sums
due to the CORRECT md5 entry in the appropriate PAM file.

So: PAM is just fine. Only the installer has a bug. It's not creating MD5
passwords.

If yes, tell more about PAM
If not, then I'm wasting time of the people who are spending time on this bugreport.

 Package: discover
 Version: 1.5-2
 Severity: normal
 
 discover has dependency:
 Depends: libc6 (= 2.3.2.ds1-4), libdiscover1, debconf ( 0.5), ash | dash
 
 But ash has dependency:
 Pre-Depends: dash
 
 So ash | dash is misleading.
 
 Look at this example:
 
 # apt-get install discover
 The following NEW packages will be installed:
   ash dash discover discover-data libdiscover1
 
 # apt-get install dash discover
 The following NEW packages will be installed:
   dash discover discover-data libdiscover1

I imagine ash is there so that it's easy to build discover for stable
and have it work (stable didn't have dash). The easiest fix would be to
switch the order and make the dependency 'dash | ash'.

It restores in the menu the partitions that are on the disk.  In your

Re: Sparc64 Netbooting

2004-03-12 Thread Stuart . Auchterlonie

I've poked around some more.
I can at least get the system up by booting with the options
devfs=mount init=/bin/sh

Then I can poke around and try to run d-i by hand.
It keeps dying when it gets up to running /sbin/di-main-menu
as part of the S70main-menu-linux script.

I get a couple of
attempt to access beyond the end of device
01:00: rw=0, want=4488, limit=4096
etc.
and then the process segfaults.

As far as I can tell it's trying to write past the end of the ram disk.
I'd like to try and let it have a much bigger ram disk,
but I'm currently lacking TFM and brain cells to make it happen.

Tips accepted :)

Comments/Problems:

The installation just worked. A couple of minor complaints about partman:
- I installed from usb media, and partitioned the disk manually. So
  I was quite surprised to see my usb keychain on the list of 
  partitionable hard drives. I don't think a user wants to format the 
  disk he's installing from... :)
- On the final question where it asks if you want to proceed with 
  partitioning/formatting/mounting, it should probably print a summary
  of the changes it is about to make to the hd or, at least, a summary
  of the partitions it is about to wipe clean. Just to be sure a newbie
  doesn't delete its windows partition by mistake :)
  
Other than that, it was flawless. Great work, people!

 PS : i did a mknod console c 5 1 in the initrd image and then my image

All tftp images require us to add devfs=mount to the init line.

 I ran into a couple of problems and ended up giving up without being

 the kernel used by the installer did not include the mptscsih or

These were added to the scsi-modules udeb on the 10th, so they should be

Comments/Problems:

I reported bug 237418 yesterday, but I used the beta2 version of the installer which 
is obviously backlevelled.
I shall see if I can close 237418 because what it says don't matter.
This version steps through everything nicely.
Problem occurred in Partition hard drives. I don't want to partition anything.
Should that be an option?
Anyway he doesn't like that you don't do that.

After that you must manually step to create file systems, which I did on hdb part 13 as root.

After that the install of the kernel fails because mkinitrd cannot determine root 
device
which I thought I saw also in some of the reports.
Very nice tool, nice logo, much improved since last beta.

performning next step.
I'm not sure, but it seems that this name (Phoenix-VM) was simply ignored: cat 
/etc/hostname is giving localhost ; uname is giving Linux
-As installation source, I gave cd as I didn't configured the network, but the system was still searching updates on the network

-BUG: The cd was to be find in /dev/cdrom1 (2nd cdrom drive), that is normally mounted 
in /cdrom1/
but the installer is searching in /cdrom/ at package installation step (after package 
selection with tasksel, but no choice selected)

Roland The first problem was that the kernel used by the
Roland installer did not include the mptscsih or mptbase modules,
Roland which are required for the zx6000's SCSI controller.

Joey These were added to the scsi-modules udeb on the 10th, so
Joey they should be available in the 11th's image, I think.

I guess I was just really unlucky :)  I'll give it another shot in the
next day or so and see if I can get the elilo install to work.

 This is not necessary. The standard setup is actually to not have any

 filesystem, like a floppy.

Well, I think both setups are possible.

I have borrowed two different sticks today and both have one primary
partition by default and also some kind bootloader in mbr, which
executes whatever is on the begining of the first partition (like
ordinary hdd boot). Even if this fails, you can use install-mbr or
spblinux as described on http://d-i.pascal.at/.

Of course, your setup works more reliably, because you bypass the
unnecessary thingie in mbr by replacing it (together with the rest of
the stick).

I'll incoporate all your suggestions ASAP (if nobody does it

I think I will download a netinst iso to try latest d-i this week-end.

 The ram disk image is currently too big. Add

 or similar to your entry at the boot prompt.

Better yet, use a netinst image that is not 4 days out of date.

 Roland The first problem was that the kernel used by the

 Joey These were added to the scsi-modules udeb on the 10th, so
 Joey they should be available in the 11th's image, I think.
 
 I guess I was just really unlucky :)  I'll give it another shot in the
 next day or so and see if I can get the elilo install to work.

Unfortunatly it turns out that the ia64 daily builds are down, so those
images will remain out of date. However, you should be able to use the
20040311 build from ftp.debian.org, it should be abailable from there
tomorrow.

 Tks,

On i386, this is the purpose of the usb-discover udeb: to load modules
necessary for USB keyboards, in particular, to work. This is why it must
be run before keyboard input is required.

What USB modules are required under woody for the keyboard to operate on
the zx6000?

Bug#198265: Please close this bug

2004-03-12 Thread Jens Seidel
Hi,

I recently looked for bogus debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages files
in sarge-i386-netinst.iso and in unofficial fsn.hu Sid DVD images but
was unable to find affected images.

I'm nearly sure that this bug was never related to debian-installer but
to a broken image generation.

It should be safe to close this bug.

Jens

Bug#231432: debian-installer-demo: Installer doesn't detect my IDE drive anymore

2004-03-12 Thread Gustavo Franco
tags 231432 sid
thanks
Hi Eric,

IMO, it can be a discover problem (hardware detection) or a
kernel problem.What's your hard drive? Can you install a base
woody system there? If yes, let me know ASAP and we'll track
where the problem is faster.
I've tagged it as sid only problem, because the debian-installer-demo
version on testing is still 20040102 and you've reported that the
problem occurs on 20040131.
Hope that helps,
Gustavo Franco
