Package: partman-target Version: 64 I just installed Debian squeeze for i386 from the ISO for this. The file /etc/fstab contains incorrect information in the header.
I downloaded the partman-target source to have a look at the problem. In the file partman-target-64/finish.d/create_fstab_header, I see the lines: cat >/target/etc/fstab <<EOF # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'vol_id --uuid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5). # EOF The program referenced in the header, vol_id, exists in lenny (stable) as part of the udev (0.125-7+lenny3) package. The program vol_id does not exist for squeeze (unstable) or for sid (testing) as part of the udev (151-2) package for any of the supported architectures. While the header information in partman-target is correct for lenny/stable, it is incorrect for squeeze and sid - the vol_id program no longer exists. As vol_id no longer exists on squeeze, I used "blkid", which is part of the util-linux package, to find out what the UUIDs of my disk partitions were. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
