Bug#245632: Installation report, Poweredge 750 with Adaptec AACRAID
Package: installation-reports
Debian-installer-version: Beta3 netinst (20040405)
uname -a: installer kernel 2.4.25, installed 2.4.25-686
Date: 20040423
Method:
Boot off of the netinst CD, using a local FTP mirror.
Machine: Dell Poweredge 750 rackmount 1U, with Adaptec AACRAID (Dell
CERC)
Processor: Pentium IV 2.8 GHz
Memory: 512 MB
Root Device: SCSI, /dev/sda (Adaptec AACRAID)
Root Size/partition table:
Not relevant. 120 GB on hardware RAID1.
Output of lspci:
Relevant elements :
Adaptec AACRAID PCI ID : 0285
Intel E1000 dual port PCI ID : 1075
Base System Installation Checklist:
Initial boot worked:[O]
Configure network HW: [E]
Config network: [E,O]
Detect CD: [O]
Load installer modules: [O]
Detect hard drives: [E,O]
Partition hard drives: [O]

Mount partitions: [O]
Install base system:[O]
Install boot loader:[O]
Reboot: [O]
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it
Comments/Problems:
The installer booted flawlessly, but couldn't detect the ethernet
card. It is a dual Intel E1000 card, supported by the stock e1000
driver. Loading the driver by hand leads to a working network setup,
the installer then detects the ethernet interfaces without any
problem.
The network configuration is a real pain. We have a DHCP server on the
network used to netboot thin clients and initiate network
backups/restore, which can't be used for anything else.
As the installer automatically issues DHCP requests without asking if
it should do so, we had to pull the plug, then redo the network
configuration. Wasted time.
The installer couldn't detect the Adaptec AACRAID card (RAID card with
6 SATA ports). Loading the driver by hand, together with sd_mod, leads
to a working setup, the installer then finds the RAID array as
/dev/sda, which is just fine.
The regular PATA controller was detected just fine, although the 2
onboard (non-RAID) SATA ports weren't detected. I've no details on the
SATA controller, I'll get back to you with those details when I'll
have access to the machine again.
Partitioning with partman is a *PAIN*. This thing is horrible. It is
counter-productive and, at best, counter-intuitive. I thought the
installer would ask me to create a swap partition, but I found out
that I was left alone to create it with partman, and the whole thing
is non-obvious. Please, give me back my beloved cfdisk !
Then it complained because I wanted my /boot partition to be an XFS
partition, and that wouldn't work with grub. There's a patch for grub
on the linux-xfs mailing list, please get it applied to our grub
package and remove that warning. I want to get rid of ext{2,3} :P
choose-mirror is buggy. When going back, it will eventually present a
list of mirrors for the country you are supposed to be in, and the
enter information manually item isn't there. Annoying.
Also, it can't tell whether the mirror is unavailable due to network
problems or whether it's not usable for another reason. It'd be useful
to make the distinction between these 2 cases.
Although the installer didn't detect the AACRAID card, the reboot went
just fine. The network driver wasn't loaded, but that was no surprise.
Base-config presented its main menu, and didn't guide me through the
steps automatically. I don't know if it's intended, but I find it
disturbing.
We installed this machine in just 20 minutes. That was my fastest
Debian installation ever. Thanks guys, you're doing a really good job.
If you need more details on the machine, just ask, and I'll provide
them as soon as I'll have the hardware handy.
JB.

[Manual] Rescue options if reboot fails?
The manual still describes the use of a rescue floppy in case the first reboot fails. What options does a user have with d-i if the first reboot should fail? Can the boot media (floppy or CD) be used for rescue (if yes, how)? I have tried 'linux root=/dev/hd..' and 'linux root=/dev/discs/disc../part..' from CD and floppy but both failed (as I somewhat expected). This is mainly i386 i guess...

To the best of my knowledge, this question *is* asked, albeit with a lower debconf priority than is displayed by default. So lowering the debconf priority by selecting the expert install seems like a perfectly reasonable way to cater for non-standard setups. And I *do* believe that a non-desired DHCP server is a non-standard setup. Perhaps it should be documented better, but I haven't checked on the documentation, so I cannot comment on this.

d-i beta3 ramblings...
Hullo :) This is the first time I've used d-i and I'm generally very impressed, but I do have some moans, which I present here for your consumption. I'm sure some of these will have been flagged before, so please let me know the score - if some need to be officially lodged in bugs.d.o, also let me know. Bon appetit! :) Installer before reboot: The installer did not detect my network card. I have an old ISA Plug-n-Play NE2000 compatible. When I selected ne from the driver list, it was detected immediately without requiring any IO/IRQ settings. I can understand if 'discover' simply doesn't support ISA any more - it's been legacy for too long already. However, ne was not added to /etc/modules, so on reboot I was unable to access the LAN until I loaded the module and /etc/init.d/networking restart. Base-config: The Set up users and passwords writes two lines of similar text to the whiptail window when asking for a normal-priv user. The exact texts are something like Please enter a name and Please enter the name. Tasksel's 'Custom Kernel' package will install kernel-source-2.4.25, when the installer has installed 2.4.26-386. Tasksel is confusing to use. The Help text says that pressing ENTER or SPACEBAR on a task will toggle the selection. This is not the case. If I use the LEFT/RIGHT cursor keys to see More Info for a task, then pressing ENTER or SPACEBAR will again invoke the 'More Info' function. From this point, the only way to again toggle tasks is to move the cursor left or right until none of the three options are highlighted - I'm an experienced sysadmin having done dozens of installs, and I find this most confusing - I shudder to think how a new user would find it :) I'll explain what I did, and what happened. I want KDE installed, but not GNOME. I selected 'Desktop environment', and then pressed cursor keys until I got 'More Info' selected - on seeing that it will install GNOME, I wanted to remove my selection of 'Desktop environment', but I managed to press LEFT, and then SPACE. Rather than deselecting 'Desktop Environment' this pressed 'Finish' so apt-get then immediately went to download 400MB of packages for X11, KDE and GNOME. I pressed CTRL-C to stop it, and it gracefully exited and returned me to the previous menu, where I selected only 'X Window system' and then 'Finish'. Unfortunately it had remembered the previous selection, and still wanted to download KDE/GNOME/X11 :( In fact, even after getting to the base-config menu, and pressing Cancel to completely restart base-config, it still remembered all the GNOME/KDE stuff I had now decided NOT to install. I bypassed Tasksel, configured exim, finished base-config, and then executed apt-get install x-window-system manually.

The problem here is that the i386 kernel uses an initrd, which is only on the hard drive. Isolinux can't load it from there. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

That is not enough information to fix discover to detect the hardware it

Then it complained because I wanted my /boot partition to be an XFS
partition, and that wouldn't work with grub. There's a patch for grub
on the linux-xfs mailing list, please get it applied to our grub
package and remove that warning. I want to get rid of ext{2,3} :P
If you know where the patch is, send the information to bug #243835.

But no grub patch.
choose-mirror is buggy. When going back, it will eventually present a
list of mirrors for the country you are supposed to be in, and the
enter information manually item isn't there. Annoying.
It's at the top of the list.
Base-config presented its main menu, and didn't guide me through the
steps automatically. I don't know if it's intended, but I find it
disturbing.
This is because something you did earlier dropped the installer to a
lower debconf priority.

You need to put the parameters in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts (not /target) before running the hardware detection step. Then you need to put them in /target as well, after the base installation. There is no PCMCIA configuration part either, it is part of the hardware detection. If you don't need PCMCIA for installing, you can disable it during the installation and then install pcmcia-cs and modify /etc/pcmcia/config.opts afterwards.

Re: [Manual] New installer options versus old boot options
How does this look for the PCMCIA option? (I have removed most of the SGML tags.) Some laptop models produced by DELL are known to crash when PCMCIA device detection tries to access some hardware addresses. If you experience such a problem and you don't need PCMCIA support during the installation, you can disable PCMCIA using the userinputhw-detect/start_pcmcia=false/userinput boot parameter. You can then configure PCMCIA after the installation is completed and exclude the resource range causing the problems. Alternatively you can try the following workaround: - boot the installation system in expert mode, choose your language and country, but stop before hardware detection - enter the system shell (see xref linkend=shell/ for details) - execute this command: 'echo exclude port 0x810-0x81f /etc/pcmcia/config.opts' - now return to the main menu and continue with the installation process You will also have to exclude the same address range in '/target/etc/pcmcia/config.opts' before you reboot the computer to avoid running into the same problem when you boot into your new Debian system. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Nobody has sent a bug report about it until recently. Or are you talking about the i386 problems? I don't really know what to do about these. In the PCMCIA HOWTO, there is a long [1]list of computers where you have to tweak the resource ranges. Interesting to note, however, is that Redhat by default excludes 0x800-0x8ff (the Dell Inspiron range), 0x380-0x3ff and IRQ 12. Perhaps we should do something similar. The old maintainer's opinion was that we shouldn't modify the upstream defaults. I don't know what consequences there are when you exclude resource ranges.

ATI Radeon
My name is Brian, I live in Western Washingon (Peninsula) and I downloaded the latest verson of Debian (7 disks) from local servers. After installing the software, I discovered the kernel will not access the display (x server). I set the default display at gdm, and gnome will not load. The kernel loads and I am limited to command line ability and I must get my machine working. I have had a lot of difficulty installing the system with my current ATI Radeon, pci, and though the distro does support it, I cant get it to work. Any suggestions you might have would be appreciated, Cheers.

Any suggestions you might have would be appreciated, more detail would make it easier for people to help you out. a short summary of what you need to do to get your card working: install a recent kernel. run modconf. load the agp and the appropriate DRM modules for radeon cards. then reconfigure X11 so that it knows about your card. make sure you have the appropriate X libs and server installed. you might want to hunt a friend locally there to help you out - its nearly impossible for someone to help you configure your X without hands-on access to the machine. I know there are several big LUGs and perlmonger groups near you who could probably help you find someone to help quite directly elijah -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
