Since the truncated signatures are in the source packages, this is a
problem introduced by the code signing service and will need to be
fixed there.

For Debian's own packages, we didn't want to use ephemeral module
signing keys (which break reproducibility) or to expose signing keys to
the regular build machines. Instead, Debian has a separate signing
service that handles the few packages that need it.
The closest thing to "the Debian way" for signing custom kernels would
be that wiki page. But personally, I think making each computer build
and sign its own kernel and modules undermines any value that Secure
Boot could provide.

b. Change the implementation of modalias attributes to allow longer

It's not clear to me whether the Xen driver is advertising correctly or
not. If it is, then the solution should be b, but that may be too
disruptive a change to the kernel. So a reasonable workaround might
be:
c. Change the input subsystem to limit the length of the

fwupdate in buster uses a Debian-specific install script that checks
that /sys/firmware/efi/vars exists and does not install files in the
ESP otherwise.
This kernel interface has been deprecated for som
updating the status. Also reassigning this to udev, as that is
the package that actually does the copying of /etc/systemd/network.

ev/null is always empty
and would be copied as an empty file. This is the correct target for
symlinks when you want to disable a systemd unit. /dev/zero is an
infinite stream of binary zeroes and would result in the behaviour you
saw.

procps is the wrong place, not just because it's out of our hands, but
because systemd applies sysctl configuration now and procps is
optional.

So long as this is just for a local package, sure.
I can't speak for the cryptsetup maintainer, but I wouldn't expect
patches to support the old loop-aes to be accepted into

Does it work with the bu
doc/README.qemu-arm
It won't - it has very different hardware. Even the CPU will be
incompatible (ARMv7 whereas marvell is built for v5).
Ben.
linux-image-marvell seems capable of handling PCI serial ports.
Storage options for QEMU VM seems only "ich9-ahci" and "sdhci-pci"...
tl. Please advise.
You'll need to capture the kernel log using a serial console
<https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/serial-console.html>
or netconsole
<https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/netconsole.html>.

The two most common thing
e (is there anything else??).
The usual practice is to use u-boot or some other board-specific boot
loader, which can be configured by the flash-kernel package. I don't
think that works in QEMU.

The rpi flavour doesn't have those constraints, though. What would be
the benefit of booting it in UEFI mode?

Right, we can't do anything useful without that.
Also, are you using the on-board Ethernet or a separate adapter in the

If you wait for about 30 seconds you should get a shell with the prompt
"(initramfs)". At the shell prompt, run:
ls -l /dev/nvme*
Are the expected partitions listed?
