Troubles with debian-cd

2013-05-07 Thread Philip Charles
Hi folks,
  Thanks to Thomas Schmitt I got everthing done I 
wanted done.  I had two problems with debian-cd

1.  When using xorriso 1.2.2 and the associated iso build configuration 
the resulting image would not boot from a flash drive.  A previous version 
of debian-cd was ok.
2.  When building i386 images debian-cd ignored DISKTYPE and put 
everything it could find into the image all 40+GiB.  I had not tried 
building i386 on previous versions of debian-cd.  Using xorriso 1.2.9 and 
associated build config.

As I do funny things with debian-cd I work directly through makefile and 
CONF.sh and I have noticed that ARCHES and COMPLETE are missing from 
CONF.sh

A  final point, the i386 DVD 1 has a peculiar structure.  Mind you it 
works.

It was great to see the iso's and jigdos up so quickly.  This must have 
involved a lot of work.

Phil.

Re: Small inaccuracy on www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/

 There is a small inaccuracy here:
 
 http://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/
 
 On that page it says that FreeBSD users can install the jigdo package
 from /usr/ports/ftp/jigdo 
 
 That may perhaps hav been true in the past, but at present, FreeBSD users
 will not find jigdo at that location.  Rather, nowadays, it is located here:
 
/usr/ports/net-p2p/jigdo 
 
 You may perhps want to update  correct your web page.

Thanks, did that (note it might take a few hours until that's active,
however)

This end should point toward the ground if you want to go to space.

If it starts pointing toward space you are having a bad problem and you
will not go to space today.

Re: Wheezy size -- only 3 DVD ISO image files listed instead of 10

Hi,

 Hi!  I've seen today that Wheezy was officially released 2 days ago!  
 Great news!
 
 There is something that I cannot understand, why does this release fit 
 on 3 DVDs? (at least for AMD64 arch)
 
 But on the debian main site says over 37500 packages, and I'm using 
 Debian 6 which has 29000 packages and it's 8 DVDs long.
 
 So, is this Debian 7 release thinner than its predecessor or are you 
 using some new and nasty compression algorithm to get the 37500 
 packages on 3 DVDs?  (I ask out of ignorance)

There are 3 DVDs listed on 
http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/7.0.0/amd64/iso-dvd/
so far you are right.

But following the jigdo link to
http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/7.0.0/amd64/jigdo-dvd/
I see 10 DVDs.

So this is probably a case for debian-cd? (in CC)


Cheers
Holger
