I looked at it a week ago, and concluded that to be a robust wifi configurator, it would need to be part of netcfg. Here is my rough design document: - wifi config should happen after netcfg has chosen an interface, but before the dhcp - in low priority, should let wifi be configured - in high priority, should see if there is an AP, and if so, use it with no config - should allow configuration of: ad-hoc or AP WEP key entry (ugh) ad-hoc channel, essid for AP, get a list of access points (how? at least dummy code with AP and signal) prompt with a question that asks which AP to use, with a manual entry at the bottom to let the user enter the essid; after the manual entry, see if an AP was found using that essid, else show an error and back to list - if dhcp or whatever fails, should be the option to go back and reconfigure wifi, in case that was the problem Instead of making there be 3 choices (retry dhcp, config static, reconfig wifi), how about changing netcfg/dhcp_retry to jump back to the start of netcfg (interface choice). This way, if you choose the wrong interface, you can also rectify that, and you get to configure wifi again too. Always jumping back to the start would require changing the current design of the dhcp retry code. If the dhcp client did not exit it is currently not killed and restarted but we wait for another 10s instead. If we go back to the start we would have to kill the dhcp client to avoid unwanted side effects. If we agree on using udhcp on all archs this would not be too serious, because udhcp only runs for about 7s and is restarted on retry anyway. I'm not sure if this behaviour of udhcp works with real world slow dhcp servers though. - after network config is done, need to write wifi info to interfaces file Can this be made standalone, or how does it integrate with netcfg? Probably the latter. I submitted this email as a wishlist bug to netcfg.

Bug#225344: base-config: aptitude dependency breaks debootstrap and pbuilder
Package: base-config Version: 2.03 Severity: normal Followup-For: Bug #225344 Hi, Note that this bug breaks debootstrap (aptitude is not installed, base-config can't be configured, debootstrap exits with an errorcode) and consequently pbuilder, which expects debootstrap to succeed. IMHO, front-end programs like aptitude should not be included in the debootstrap installed packages. I hope a better solution to get the needed packages to the installer is found.

It did not configure the network. netcfg is on the cd, but udeb_include is broken. I am working right now on fixing that (I broke it :-( ) It didn't prompt for a mirror, as one was not needed, so my interaction was limited to partitioning and hitting enter a few times. Slick! All the interesting stuff was after boot into the installed system. It still whines about /etc/mtab not existing, so my hack for that does not work. Something new: It loads the framebuffer again when booting the installed system. I hope this is only done if the initial install happened with framebuffer, and not always. Base-config 2.0 is on there, but it somehow got the debconf priority wrong so I saw the base-config menu. I stepped through the menu. The hostname was still localhost. I told apt-setup to use my cd, and it properly noticed it was a netinst CD, and defaulted to true when asking me if I wanted to add another apt source. Network was not available after reboot (see above), which is a problem, really. aptitude was installed, and was on base-config's list before dselect. Yay! Of course, there were no additional packages for me to install.. exim4 still has (none) as the mail name of the system. base-config completed ok.

generally successful install report from usb keychain
Debian-installer-version: today's (second build) netinst CD from manty's home dir Method: booting from a 128 mb usb keychain with hd-media initrd I built, and the d-i ISO on it Machine: LC2000 laptop from LinuxCertified, Inc.

This will be fixed in 0.10, but I didn't get such a template in /root/ in the installed system. The installer finds my USB and internal NIC ok on this laptop. When I insert an old wavelan card, cardmgr notices it and loads the right module, but I get this error and the card never comes on: klogd: orinoco_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use Not sure what do to about that. I've googled around but have not found anything that has helped. The install properly configured my network (internal NIC), did not ask me about mirror (good, this is a netinst CD), and finished quickly. I did notice the long pause while it was formatting the disk, with only a blue screen displayed, and again a several seconds pause with a blue screen in the middle of a deboostrap run, right after the Extracting packages step. I have figured out the base-config debconf priority problem. A workaround will be in prebaseconfig 0.47. I applied this workaround before finishing the install. Some ugly things during boot: - discover decided I should have a i810_rng module, but this module failed to load with No such device. - While starting pcmcia, I got the error a module named pcmcia_core already exists. - Also while starting pcmcia, I got unresolved symbols in i82365.o. The symbol is isapnp_find_dev_R27cb2cad. That is in the isa-pnp module, which was not loaded at the time. - I still get the same orinoco_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use when inserting my wavelan card. base-config came up in high priority. It did time zone config, with default to Africa, which is silly. It needs to use d-i's location informaiton still. At high priority base-config insists that I configure an apt source, which is hard since I have no CD, no network cable, and only a USB keychain. This will be fixed in base-config 2.04; for now I hit the cancel button to get to the menu and continued from there. exim4 has a very strange default mail name: 127.0.0.1 localhost What on earth? Taking a look at /etc/mailname, I see: 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.1.1 debian. debian Something is _very_ broken here. FWIW, my /etc/hosts has the same. /etc/hostname has debian.; I don't know why the period is there. Lacking a network, I did not try to get X working. discover did load an i180_audio driver, so I tried to cat /etc/passwd to /dev/audio. This resuled in a fairly appropriate noise, but also some DMA overrun error messages. I had better luck with /vmlinuz, no DMA overrun messages. And my cat left the room, too. :-) Though USB obviously worked during the install, discover did not load the usb-ochi module for it, nor was usb-storage loaded. I think this was fixed in a recent upload of discover by its new maintainer though, and is only waiting for that to get into testing. After manually loading the modules, I was able to re-mount my keychain. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Installation Report (success)
Hello all, I did a simple installation (2 partitions / + /boot, no LVM, no raid) on my crash box. This is what I found. The bad news: Using mantys netinst CD (2003-12-30) with net boot method still fails on the already reported di-utils-devicefiles. The good news: Using expert, i.e. installing from CD rather than from apt repository on the network works fine! So this problem/dependency/whatever lurks on the mirrors rather than the installer image? Q: is ftp2.de.d.o a good choice for bleeding edge? Is there a problem (apart from just taking some time) in the replication across mirrors? Overall: I'm impressed with the installer! Thank you all very much for grinding this out!

Just booted it again in expert and I see only Configure network. Moreover, the udebs that provide the other menu items are not even on the CD image. * Choose a mirror Strange sorting in the country list, Germany (de) comes before Denmark (dk) :-) Hm well, I think that is sorted at build time actually. That's worth a bug report.. --- Configuring the base system... Is this still the right list here? Yes please. * Configure the keyboard ... Nothing did happen, returned to screen quickly That is normal, it noticed that d-i already configured the keyboard. * Turned out that adduser failed. Digging in /var/log/base-config.log: /var/log/dpkg/info/passwd.config: line 283: 711 Segmentation fault \ adduser --disabled-password --gecos $RET $USER /dev/null chpasswd: line 1: unkown user x Yikes! * Select packages to install uups, installs read-edid and mdetect (and more?) behind my neck! :-) It does that in case you decide to install X in aptitude. For X to autoconfigure, they must be installed *before* X is installed, and this is the only way to be sure. It will remove them afterwards if you did not select X after all. * pcmcia-cs was installed despite the box not having any hw needing it. Most probably known feature. I decided to call it a feature, though this is debatable. :-) * Install selected packages I was wondering, what this would do, after I had installed stuff using aptitude already. Well, adds perl and libdb4.0. That's fine with me. Without Debconf_priority=low or medium, I probably won't see this item anyway. The problem is that I really want people to only _select_ items with aptitude, and then exit it, and let the installer install what was selected there, and possibly in tasksel too. But the natural thing to do, if you know aptitude is to hit gg and install. This is waiting for a --select-only option for aptititude. * no install_report.template in /root I think this was mentioned also. Will be fixed soon. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

aptitude defaults for d-i
[Joey == [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Tue, 30 Dec 2003 16:44:19 -0500] But I am not sure whether aptitude is a good choice for d-i. Surely aptitude is a great tool, but sometimes it choses some pretty unlikely packets to resolve dependencies (e.g. xscreensaver recommends wordlist, which aptitude resolved by selecting wcatalan instead of wamerican). Joey The recommends behavior could perhaps be improved. I've found that just changing the default in aptitude to don't install recommends has helped trememdously in keeping a clean debian box. In my unreleased mini-distro, I use the following apt-conf.conf file: -- begin apt-conf.conf -- aptitude ; aptitude::UI ; aptitude::UI::New-Package-Commands true; aptitude::UI::Package-Header-Format %N %n #%B %u %o; aptitude::UI::Package-Status-Format %d; aptitude::UI::Package-Display-Format %c%a%M %p #%v%V; aptitude::UI::Default-Grouping filter(missing),task,status,section(subdir,passthrough),section(topdir); aptitude::UI::Advance-On-Action true; aptitude::UI::Description-Visible-By-Default true; aptitude::UI::Minibuf-Download-Bar false; aptitude::UI::Pause-After-Download false; aptitude::UI::Prompt-On-Exit false; aptitude::UI::Exit-On-Last-Close false; aptitude::UI::Incremental-Search true; aptitude::UI::Minibuf-Prompts true; aptitude::UI::Menubar-Autohide true; aptitude::UI::HelpBar true; aptitude::Pkg-Display-Limit ; aptitude::Delete-Unused-Pattern ; aptitude::Delete-Unused true; aptitude::Suggests-Important false; aptitude::Recommends-Important false; aptitude::Auto-Fix-Broken true; aptitude::Auto-Install true; aptitude::Log /var/log/aptitude; aptitude::Warn-Not-Root true; aptitude::Forget-New-On-Install false; aptitude::Forget-New-On-Update true; aptitude::Display-Planned-Action true; aptitude::Changelog-URL-Template http://cgi.debian.org/cgi-bin/get-changelog?package=%s;; aptitude::AutoClean-After-Update true; aptitude::Auto-Upgrade true; -- end -- (I recall that some of these are the defaults, just pulled into this file for reference.)

Bug#212143: netcfg mailname
/etc/mailname does not have the same format as /etc/hostname, so this change to netcfg royally stuffed it. Please test changes before committing! I think that all netcfg has to do is actually set the hostname. It could do this by echoing the hostname to a file in /proc, for example. exim4's ostinst will then pick up on that and put it in /etc/mailname. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

pcmcia RequestIRQ problem (was Re: generally successful install report from usb keychain)
Package: debian-installer Tags: d-i I wrote: klogd: orinoco_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use Not sure what do to about that. I've googled around but have not found anything that has helped. Steinar H. Gunderson wrote: FWIW I've seen this too. I never solved it, but AFAIK somebody I knew fixed it by enabling both ISA support (!) _and_ ISA PnP (!!) in the kernel config. (I was told this was because PCMCIA (as opposed to CardBus) actually is an ISA-style bus.) I don't know what Debian's kernels do... Well we obviously need a bug report for this. Mainly what I found on google for this error message were suggestions to make sure that ISA support was in the kernel, which it is for the d-i boot kernel: CONFIG_ISA=y CONFIG_EISA=y CONFIG_ISAPNP=m In private mail, Jan Lübbe reported he also had the problem with 2.6.0-test9, and that he solved it by building with isa-pnp not as a module. I've tried loading isa-pnp on my notebook before starting pcmcia, but it doesn't do anything. I did find a way to make it work for me. If I comment out either or both of these lines in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts, my orinoco card works: exclude irq 4 exclude irq 7 It seems it can only use irq 4 or 7, no others work for some reason. /proc/interrupts shows only these irqs in use: 0, 1, 2, 8, 14, 15. The cardbus controller is on 3. Why can't it use irqs 3, 5, 6, or 10-13, or share an IRQ? I don't know. Perhaps for d-i we should remove the exclude irq lines entirely from the config.opts. I really don't know. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I can't reproduce this, just booted and manually modprobed it and it loaded without problem. I don't have a card to try it with, but all the symbols are resolved. Also tried it with net boot type, same result. The symbols you list as missing are in the 8390 module AFAIK. It sounds as if you got a broken modules.dep somehow and modprobe did not load 8390; but it works here. - ncr53c8xx (scsi) is missing and sym53c8xx is not loaded through the hw detection phase. loading sym53c8xx, sr_mod and sd_mod manually results in the SCSI disks being avaliable, though. this worked on the image before ncr53c8xx is available in the installer initrd after the installer loaded is components from CD. sym53c8xx is part of the debian-installer CD boot initrd, so it should be available the instant the installer boots (and is, in my testing). - booting net still results in the di-utils-devicefiles problem, see my last message I have just verified that di-utils-devicefiles is not in the Packages file anymore. It may have been still when you did your testing, and may still be on mirrors that are *very* slow to update. Anyway, I cannot recommend using the net boot method, as it is laregly untested. I also don't know what it's good for at all, frankly. I have been pondering remmoving it from the netinst CD entirely. - ext3 has vanished from the selection in conf.+mount filesystems Cannot reproduce. ext2, ext3, and reiserfs are all listed, and I have done installs with all of them used for the root filesystem today, using this image. I have successfully installed using this image on two computers a total of 12 times today.. Something went badly wrong, but I cannot find the problems in the image you say you used.

net.gz on cd image has netcfg-static and netcfg-dhcp?
It seems that the net.gz image on the netinst cd is some old and broken thing that includes netcfg-static and netcfg-dhcp instead of the new combined netcfg. If I build my own netboot initrd, I get one with the new netcfg in it. I downloaded netboot-initrd.gz from sjogren's daily builds, and it too has the old split netcfg packages. So I wonder what's wrong with the i386 daily build? Could Martin have forgotten to run cvs up lately? -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Selecting this from the list failed with a cannot detect your ethernet card error. 'lsmod' on vt2 showed the module loaded, but not any of the other PCMCIA modules. (A brief diversion was taken here to reset the keyboard map to American English, due to #221932.) modprobe'ing yenta_socket and ds manually (which also pulled in pcmcia_core) was necessary for the Ethernet interface to be recognized. Selecting 'none of the above' initially, loading yenta_socket and ds, and then attempting network hardware detection also failed - the installer mistakenly requested the tulip_cb module instead of xircom_cb. All steps up to and including the reboot went flawlessly. However, after reboot, the system was unable to continue installation, as none of the PCMCIA modules had been installed. -- Nicholas Breen [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Received: (at 222775-done) by bugs.debian.org; 31 Dec 2003 04:30:32 + From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Dec 30
Re: XFS support in d-i
On Sun, Dec 28, 2003 at 10:12:43PM -0600, Steve Langasek wrote: As I do appear to be making some progress on getting an XFS-enabled d-i image together, I thought I would give everyone a status update. The 2.4.22-based kernel-image packages are now sitting in the NEW queue; although no real support for these can reasonably be committed to d-i CVS until they've entered the archive, I've also posted the packages to http://people.debian.org/~vorlon/d-i/xfs/ so that people can begin working with them locally in the meantime. I expect to also have unofficial linux-kernel-di udebs together in the next couple of days, which I'll also make available there. That takes care of the kernel. The other key ingredient, of course, is d-i support for initializing new xfs-formatted partitions. If I'm reading the source to partconf right, all that's required for this is an xfsprogs udeb that provides the mkfs.xfs tool. I found some time over the holiday to put together a patch for xfsprogs to provide precisely that, which I will be submitting to the BTS tomorrow. A few more days should give me enough time to get initial XFS-enabled d-i images together for i386, at which point testing will be most appreciated. Status update after two days: The patch to xfsprogs to add support for udeb creation is now in the BTS (bug #225444). Most of the code to generate xfs kernel udebs and xfs d-i images for i386 has been committed to d-i CVS. The remaining bits that have not been committed are attached to this email; they can't be added until xfs kernel packages are available in the archive, since this would otherwise break d-i builds. Unofficial xfs kernel udebs, based on the pending kernel-image debs, have also been uploaded to http://people.debian.org/~vorlon/d-i/xfs/. A d-i CD-ready (in theory!) image is also now available as http://people.debian.org/~vorlon/d-i/xfs/cdrom-xfs-image.img (the bare initrd accompanies it at http://people.debian.org/~vorlon/d-i/xfs/cdrom-xfs-initrd.gz). I'm going to start looking at what it will take to build a debian-cd image now to pull this all together.

AFAIK, only i386 has a pcmcia modules package separate from the kernel. --=20 see shy jo --- Received: (at 218870-done) by bugs.debian.org; 31 Dec 2003 04:35:00 + From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Dec 30 22:35:00 2003 Return-path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: from kitenet.net [64.62.161.42] by master.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1AbVz0-0003f5-00; Tue, 30 Dec 2003 20:21:14 -0600 Received: from dragon.kitenet.net (pm3naxs19-176.access.naxs.com [216.98.94.176]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (Client CN Joey Hess, Issuer Joey Hess (verified OK)) by kitenet.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 111AB17DFB for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Wed, 31 Dec 2003 02:21:13 + (GMT) Received: by dragon.kitenet.net (Postfix, from userid 1000) id AED0C6E197; Tue, 30 Dec 2003 20:57:38 -0500 (EST) Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2003 20:57:38 -0500 From: Joey Hess [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: fixed Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol=application/pgp-signature; boundary=rwEMma7ioTxnRzrJ Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.4i Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-master.debian.org_2003_11_25-bugs.debian.org_2003_12_29 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on master.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.0 required=4.0 tests=none autolearn=no version=2.60-master.debian.org_2003_11_25-bugs.debian.org_2003_12_29 X-Spam-Level: --rwEMma7ioTxnRzrJ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable This is done. --=20 see shy jo --rwEMma7ioTxnRzrJ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/8i0Sd8HHehbQuO8RAjYYAKDroU0sPIqKMhADfbU+fxAmJrZvsQCg2Ehf moVmYsVX7Yzog49pJUrCDgo= =HUsG -END PGP SIGNATURE- --rwEMma7ioTxnRzrJ-- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
