  - network

 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.

So, instead of having GMAC builtin, SUNGEM (there is a typo in the

Ideally the powerpc-small should replace the powerpc config in some

be nice that whatever is in charge of loading modules doesn't die when

Ah, that explains it.

The -small config has CONFIG_SUNGEM=m as well as CONFIG_USB_STORAGE=m.

I guess what happens here is that you are using the -small kernel with
the normal modules or something such. The -small has a lot more stuff
modular so it can fit on a miboot floppy, but as thus, it also needs
a lot more stuff to go into the module udebs, as well as a specific
initrd. 

Try using the kernel from the -powerpc image directly.

Reading debootstrap.log on a failed install using ash

2003-12-30 Thread Barry Hawkins
List,
	I have purchased a 1GHz 15 PowerBook G4 that I am trying to run an 
installation for using the sarge business card install.  The date of my 
iso is November 19th.  I haven't seen any news of the old location for 
those being back up, so I am still trying to use this one.
	My installation failed to install to /target/ with a return value of 
1.  I was instructed to look at debootstrap.log and debootstrap.err.log 
in /target/var/log.  I launched the ash shell from the install menu and 
tried to no avail to get a glimpse of these files.  Can someone tell me 
how to view these log files when you do not have a successful 
installation of Debian on a system?  I tried a number of the available 
commands from ash, but the commands don't behave the same.  For 
example, more only confirms the existence of a file.

 I double checked and as far as I can see, linux-kernel-di does not
 confuse the two sets of modules for the two powerpc kernels. It is

Ok, tell me the new directions to the new CVS repostitory (or maybe i
need to be added to the alioth project or something) and i will give it
a try.

Also, i wonder if anyone has an idea if building the RTC clocks as
modules would be acceptable. The CONFIG_GEN_RTC doesn't work on pegasos,
but using the CONFIG_RTC that does work breaks pmacs.

I have tried porting the CONFIG_RTC code to the per subarch
CONFIG_GEN_RTC stuff, but without much luck yet. I haven't had enough
time, and was sick sunday and yesterday.

Bug#222374: reassign to kernel

2003-12-30 Thread Joey Hess
reassign 222374 kernel-image-2.4.22-1-386
retitle 222374 vesafb is a module, but cannot work that way
thanks

Summarising:

vesafb is built as a module in the debian kernel, and d-i tries to
modprobe it, falling back on the less portable vga16fb if it fails to
load. We're told that there is no way vesafb can work as a module
however, even with debian's modifications. d-i has a boot option to not
start the framebuffer, so what's left is a kernel bug.

 Ah, that explains it.
 
 The -small config has CONFIG_SUNGEM=m as well as CONFIG_USB_STORAGE=m.
 
 I guess what happens here is that you are using the -small kernel with
 the normal modules or something such. The -small has a lot more stuff
 modular so it can fit on a miboot floppy, but as thus, it also needs
 a lot more stuff to go into the module udebs, as well as a specific
 initrd. 
 
 Try using the kernel from the -powerpc image directly.

I double checked and as far as I can see, linux-kernel-di does not
confuse the two sets of modules for the two powerpc kernels. It is
possible that the image build process does however, or is using the
wrong kernel.

If there's anything I can do to help, I'm standing by. Getting powerpc

Bug#225344: base-config: aptitude dependency breaks debootstrap and pbuilder

2003-12-30 Thread Teemu Ikonen
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.

Best wishes,

Teemu

Comments/Problems:

Well, this is a nice change -- it works again!

I noticed that pcmcia-kernel-modules were installed, as hoped for, so
pcmcia will probably work (this machine has no pcmcia though).

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.

Overall, looks great, aside from the network setup problem.

Missing udeb_include on the cd. Manty has fixed this and updated the
images.

 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.

I checked and the cdebconf config database that was saved to /target had
the priority at medium. This is very strange, since I never saw the main

You don't say what install media you used. If it was a netinst CD
downloaded today, then that is a known problem, and it is fixed in the

It would help if you could provide some details of how the installer

Total time to install Debian: 5 minutes 15 seconds
Number of keystrokes required in d-i: 34

Comments/Problems:

I noticed that bugreporter-udeb was looking in the wrong place for the
install-report.template. 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.

Installation Report (success)

2003-12-30 Thread Erich Waelde

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!


Cheers,
Erich

Strange sorting in the country list, Germany (de) comes
before Denmark (dk) :-)

* Install the base system

For Info: 75% is where the postinst/configure/update actions
take place, the disk is used, but not heavily. (several ps
aux) Someone mentioned this, so I had a look :-)

* Install Grub Bootloader

into sda4 (root partition)
IMHO (hd1,3), not understandable by innocent folks --- worse: I
cannot get out at this point AND if I leave the default
'(hd0)', my MBR is gone. This has been reported before. This
is not a problem for me, but for beginners.

IMHO: I would heavily recommend a create a boot floppy
option here (like in woody). I recommended this option to all
those, who were requesting my assistance at installation time
--- and wanted to keep their Windows partition working. With
a boot floppy I believe it is simpler for beginners. Just my
2 cent.

so: make this a wish list item then?



--- Configuring the base system...

  Is this still the right list here?

* Configure the keyboard ... 
  Nothing did happen, returned to screen quickly
  Unfortunately, I do not find any hints in /var/log/...
  Error?  Not a problem for me at this time and unless it's
  confirmed by someone else, of course.

* 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
  
  the second line looks like a consequense of the first.  
  
  Later, on the shell prompt, adduser worked like a charm.

* Set the host name
  and 
* configure apt

  apt-get update failed.

  turned out that
/etc/hosts
/etc/network/interfaces
/etc/resolv.conf
  were not filled with the information given in the first stage of the
  installation. However, /etc/hostname was filled correctly, and the kernel
  modules for the ethernet card were loaded. 
  This problem has been reported before, too, and possibly fixed.
  
  
* Select packages to install
uups, installs read-edid and mdetect (and more?) behind my neck! :-)

Menu to choose between  tasksel | aptitude | dselect

WOW!  Cool! Big applause here, folks!

Selected aptitude, everyting worked as expected.


* pcmcia-cs was installed despite the box not having any hw
  needing it. Most probably known feature.

* 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.

* no install_report.template in /root 
  I think this was mentioned also.

Re: generally successful install report from usb keychain

2003-12-30 Thread Harald Dunkel
I used the current Sarge netinst CD to install Sid. It worked.

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). It even insisted upon installing
libc5 due to an unlucky chain of dependencies. IMHO dselect is
more clever here.

Re: discover 2 test packages

2003-12-30 Thread Gaudenz Steinlin
Am Mit, den 24.12.2003 schrieb Gaudenz Steinlin um 13:46:
 Hi
 
 I fixed discover2 support in hw-detect yesterday (already in the archive
 thanks to joeyh) and now I uploaded discover2 packages for testing to my
 website:
 http://www.soziologie.ch/~steinlin/d-i/discover2/
 
 I renamed the packages to discover2-udeb and discover2-data-udeb. You
 have to change your pkg-lists to include them into your image.
 discover2-udeb is linked statically against libdiscover2 so you don't
 need to install any discover library. mklibs will probably copy libexpat
 to the image which is quite big. Someone has to build a -pic version of
 it to reduce the overhead of discover2.
 
 The discover2 package I consider nearly ready for upload and I will be
 looking for a sponsor soon. The discover2-data package needs some more
 work to be ready for an upload. I have to look over the build system
 again and make sure we include everything that currently is in
 discover-data (v1.5). 
I updated the discover-data package and synced it with the latest
version of discover-data for discover1 (not yet in the archive). I
consider this nearly ready for an udeb-only upload now. 
 
 Since I did not notice any packaging effort on the side of progeny in
 the last weeks I would like the 3rd way of the discover transition (see
 my mail on this) and upload discover2 packages which contain only the
 udebs really soon now.
Did someone test the packages or is somebody planing to do so? Or should
I just ask for a sponsor and upload the packages and we can see what
happens then?

Thank you for the detailed report.

Erich Waelde wrote:
 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?

It was a problem on the mirrors, which I masked by a hack to the CD
image, yes. In about 15 minutes it should be fixed on the mirrors too.

I am not clear on why you needed to use expert mode to get it to install
from CD. AFAIK that is the default for the netinst iso.

 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?

That is a push secondary mirror; it should take less than an hour to get
updates from the push primary mirrors, I'd expect.

   + When booting net, ide-cd failed with unresolved symbols
 (see below). Is this supposed to work?

It's been tested very little.

   + When booting expert, ide-scsi failed to load with an error
 message. Since I don't need it, I didn't bother. Is this a
 (known) problem?

Yes, it's a known problem, we don't use ide-scsi but discover still uts
it in the list of modules.

 * configure network
 
 On the CD image, there is still the version, where 
 Configure network using dhcp and
 configure static network
 show up as two different items. I think, I have seen this
 merged into one line with a selection screen on a CVS image,
 so don't bother.

Hmm, that should not be the case with the current images. 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.

 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. :-)

Without Debconf_priority=low or medium, I probably won't see this item

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.

aptitude defaults for d-i

2003-12-30 Thread Jared Rhine
[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::UI::New-Package-Commands true;
aptitude::UI::Package-Header-Format %N %n #%B %u %o;

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.)

Probably no single configuration will make even a majority of users
happy.  If I recall correctly, the aptitude maintainer is pretty happy
with the defaults, though presumably would consider changes if there
was a community uprising.

The wired /etc/mailname comes from my totaly wrong fix for the mailname

Install report (not successfull, 2nd image of 20031230, i386)

2003-12-30 Thread Erich Waelde



Hello all,

I just pressed send and reload and there was a new netinst-image!
Well, then just try this also.


Debian-installer-version:
30-Dec-2003 11:11h netinst.iso 2nd build from
http://people.debian.org/~manty/testing/netinst/i386/daily/

just to be sure:
md5sum sarge-i386-netinst-20031230.2.iso
8d88a368fc2225144b8592d75684  sarge-i386-netinst-20031230.2.iso



to make it short: This image is no good for my box.

- network cannot be configured, because ne2k-pci fails to load
  with unresolved symbols:
insmod: unresolved symbol ei_close_Rc8e3042e
insmod: unresolved symbol ei_open_R8c9e3b69
insmod: unresolved symbol ethdev_init_R2342cc80
insmod: unresolved symbol ei_interrupr_Rb93d8fa5
insmod: unresolved symbol NS8390_init_Rd79efca9
  this worked on the image before.

- 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

- booting net still results in the di-utils-devicefiles
  problem, see my last message

- I noticed that the selection list in Load installer modules
  is considerably shorter when booting expert instead of net.
  That may or may not be a problem

This time I got a whee bit more fancy and requested lvmcfg and
md-modules to be installed. 

+ configure LVM shows up and works, which is nice :-)

- ext3 has vanished from the selection in conf.+mount filesystems

- I needed to mount /boot manually, not sure why. Its on ide (not
  scsi), and I requested the file system to be left alone.
  mount /dev/hda1 /target/boot would not work, whereas
  mount /dev/discs/disc0/part1 /target/boot did.

- installing the kernel failed, with mk.initrd claiming that
  /dev/vg00/lvol1 does not exist. This is not correct, but it
  makes dpkg install kernel-image-2.4.22-1-386 fail.
  
This leaves the system in an unbootable state, at which point I
think, it's time to quit for today.

At this time I would not call the last 3 points a problem, since
it can all stem from the same source as the unresolved symbols,
namely some build error on the image.


Cheers,

Erich

Bug#225584: make cd_image requires updated mtools

2003-12-30 Thread Jared Rhine
Package: debian-installer
Tags: d-i
Severity: minor

In the CVS head as d-i as of 2003-12-30, a 'make cd_image' on my
machine fails with:

mkfs.msdos 2.10 (22 Sep 2003)
# mkfs.msdos gets the mode wrong (bug filed)

My version of mtools is:

  mtools/stable uptodate 3.9.8-7

This problem goes away after updating to:

  mtools/stable uptodate 3.9.8-7

Perhaps d-i should build-depend on the higher mtools version.

 I'm wondering where /etc/hostname comes from at all...
 
 The wired /etc/mailname comes from my totaly wrong fix for the mailname
 issue (prebaseconfig copied /etc/hosts to /target/etc/mailname).
 The patch I attached should fix this in theory, but as I only have a
 modem connection atm I'm unable to test it. I will try to do at least
 half of an install.

I don't feel this is the right fix. /etc/hostname does not have the same
format as /etc/hosts either! Instead, why not just make netcfg
echo the hostname to /proc/sys/kernel/hostname. I belive that exim4's
postinst will do the right thing if the hostname is actually set. We may
also need to write a (correct) value to /etc/hostname, but I'm not sure.

It comes from netcfg, which writes it because the domain is the

before it can usefully install a system. However, it does seem like you

Bug#212143: netcfg mailname

2003-12-30 Thread Joey Hess
/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.

  The wired /etc/mailname comes from my totaly wrong fix for the mailname
  issue (prebaseconfig copied /etc/hosts to /target/etc/mailname).
  The patch I attached should fix this in theory, but as I only have a
  modem connection atm I'm unable to test it. I will try to do at least
  half of an install.
 
 I don't feel this is the right fix. /etc/hostname does not have the same
 format as /etc/hosts either! 
I don't understand this comment. /etc/hostname is copied to
/target/etc/hostname. This does not assume that /etc/hostname and
/etc/hosts have the same format.
 Instead, why not just make netcfg
 echo the hostname to /proc/sys/kernel/hostname.
This could additionaly be done, but I don't think it is needed. The
installer just works fine without it. This does not solve the issue that
the hostname and mailname are not correct after reboot.

  I belive that exim4's
 postinst will do the right thing if the hostname is actually set. We may
 also need to write a (correct) value to /etc/hostname, but I'm not sure.
That's what my patch intended to do. The only thing I'm not sure about
and cannot test right now is if /etc/hostname exists after netcfg in the
installer ramdisk.

Where d-i work is concerned, alpha is my next priority.  My first

need for work. :)  It looked like things were in pretty good shape when
I last worked on it, though; shouldn't take more than a couple days to

 Not sure what do to about that. I've googled around but have not found

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

pcmcia RequestIRQ problem (was Re: generally successful install report from usb keychain)

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.

Package: libc6-pic
Version: 2.3.2-3
Severity: serious

After upgrading my Sid chroot, the cdrom floppy built by d-i is unable
to boot properly.

These are the last messages printed when booting the floppy:

  RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0
  Freeing initrd memory: 1441k freed
  VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
  Mounted devsf on /dev
  VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
  Trying to move old root to /initrd .. failed
  Unmounting old root
  Trying to free ramdisk memory ... failed
  Mounted devfs on /dev
  Freeing unused kernel memory: 72k freed

I upgraded these packages:

  The following NEW packages will be installed:
libbz2-1.0 python2.3
  The following packages will be upgraded
apt apt-utils base-files binutils build-essential console-common
console-data console-tools coreutils cpp cpp-3.3 debconf
debconf-i18n debconf-utils debhelper devscripts discover-data
e2fslibs e2fsprogs file fileutils g++ g++-3.3 gcc gcc-3.3

We suspect the upgraded libc provoked the problem.  That is why I
report it against libc6-pic.  More info will be provided when we know
more.

Package: debian-installer
Version: 20031119
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

After installing d-i from a cd images dated 20031119, which found my NIC
and got an IP with dhcp, /etc/mailname contained (none). With the new
base-config (2.0), exim4-config will not even prompt for the mailname
(it's priority medium), and this will likely result in broken mails from
systems installed from d-i.

I think that the (none) comes from exim4-config running hostname to
get the mail name, during debootstrap, when perhaps the system's
hostname has not been set due to an oversight in d-i. But I've not
really tried to track it down.

That's the same as my copy..

 to make it short: This image is no good for my box.
 
 - network cannot be configured, because ne2k-pci fails to load
   with unresolved symbols:
 insmod: unresolved symbol ei_close_Rc8e3042e
 insmod: unresolved symbol ei_open_R8c9e3b69
 insmod: unresolved symbol ethdev_init_R2342cc80
 insmod: unresolved symbol ei_interrupr_Rb93d8fa5
 insmod: unresolved symbol NS8390_init_Rd79efca9
   this worked on the image before.

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. Perhaps the CD you burnt is bad, or you accidentially
swapped in one from Dec 30th, 2002? ;-)

net.gz on cd image has netcfg-static and netcfg-dhcp?

2003-12-30 Thread Joey Hess
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?

Comments/Problems:

The network card in this notebook is a Xircom RBEM56G-100 (PCMCIA),
requiring the xircom_cb module.  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.

Re: XFS support in d-i

2003-12-30 Thread Steve Langasek
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.

Happy New Year,

Package: kernel-installer
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i

kernel-installer seems the only possible place to install the pcmcia
modules package for the installed kernel.=20

It only need be installed if pcmcia support is installed.
There are two ways to go. It could look to see if target has pcmcia-cs
installed in it. Or it could look to see if apt-install has been used to
install pcmcia-cs into target. (hw-detect takes care of getting
pcmcia-cs installed in target on systems with pcmcia).

AFAIK, only i386 has a pcmcia modules package separate from the kernel.
