Thanks for the heads-up. Ben Hutchings <b...@decadent.org.uk> (2013-10-13): > Notable packaging changes in 3.11: > > - armhf single-platform flavours were removed > - armhf has an 'armmp-lpae' flavour which, surprise, has LPAE enabled
Ian is the arm* guy those days. :) > - ext4 module handles ext2 and ext3 filesystem types in all kernel > configurations; the corresponding udebs are gone I've just pushed a fix for debian-installer's pkg-lists: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=d-i/debian-installer.git;a=commitdiff;h=4382120f71447f5fe73cbdf4fbeb88098c2c2966 which should fix some FTBFS after I switched from 3.10-3 to 3.11-1. FTR we'll need to bump the ABI on arm only as soon as Ben uploads a new linux package. From a very quick grep, things under d-i's packages/ directory that might need adjusting at some point: | kibi@arya:~/debian-installer/packages$ grep -rI modprobe|grep ext|sort | busybox/modutils/modprobe-small.c://// Note: currently, help system shows modprobe --help text for all aliased cmds | kickseed/setup/hd:log-output -t kickseed modprobe -q ext2 || true | live-installer/support/extX: modprobe $1 || true | partman-basicfilesystems/init.d/kernelmodules_basicfilesystems: modprobe ext2 >/dev/null 2>/dev/null; then | partman-ext2r0/init.d/kernelmodules_ext2r0:if modprobe ext2 >/dev/null 2>/dev/null; then | partman-ext3/init.d/kernelmodules_ext3: modprobe ext3 >/dev/null 2>/dev/null; then | partman-ext3/init.d/kernelmodules_ext3: modprobe ext4 >/dev/null 2>/dev/null; then Ben just confirmed on IRC that both "mount -t ext[23]" and "modprobe ext[23]" should work transparently with ext4, so we should be mostly good. Except for things like this script, which relies on module names in /proc/modules: partman-basicfilesystems/init.d/kernelmodules_basicfilesystems → http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=d-i/partman-basicfilesystems.git;a=blob;f=init.d/kernelmodules_basicfilesystems;h=f3d950d78ec7c457ca6572d094fdd6308410fa19;hb=HEAD > - linux-headers-*, linux-image-*, linux-source-* will no longer provide > virtual packages I didn't check yet whether d-i is affected by this change. > - A large number of probably useless drivers were disabled Shouldn't be too much of an issue for us.
