Package: installation-reports Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
First, I upgraded U-boot on the machine to version "2014.10+dfsg1-5" Second, I downloaded uImage and uInitrd from https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armel/daily/kirkwood/netboot/marvell/sheevaplug/ and put them on a USB stick (8GB) prepared with an ext2 filesystem. Then I connected to the serial port (using "screen -L /dev/ttyUSB0 115200") and followed the instructions on Martin's website http://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug/install/ to boot the installer. At the first installer screen, I hit "back" a couple of times till I got to the main menu where I could get a screen that allowed me to change the installer priority to "low" (i.e. to make it an "expert" install) Then I followed the normal installation procedure til it got to the screen asking which non-standard udebs I wanted to install. I chose the network-console so I could log in via ssh with a larger screen than 24x80. After that, it was just answering questions as usual, taking defaults whenever I could. When it got to tasksel, I chose a basic installation with only the ssh server enabled, but nothing else. After the reboot (and some more u-boot magic from Martin's web page) I used tasksel to install the print-server task. No problems were encountered. I also moved /tmp to tmpfs -- Package-specific info: Boot method: I followed the instructions from Martin Michlmayer's web page, Image version: I got the uI* files from https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armel/daily/kirkwood/netboot/ Date: 2015/01/03 about 23:30 UTC Machine: Stock Sheevaplug without SATA Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred> Disk /dev/sda: 7.2 GiB, 7748222976 bytes, 15133248 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x74cb16e8 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sda1 * 2048 499711 497664 243M 83 Linux /dev/sda2 499712 4829183 4329472 2.1G 83 Linux /dev/sda3 4831230 15132671 10301442 4.9G 5 Extended /dev/sda5 4831232 5294079 462848 226M 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda6 5296128 15132671 9836544 4.7G 83 Linux Filesystem Type 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on udev devtmpfs 10240 0 10240 0% /dev tmpfs tmpfs 102788 348 102440 1% /run /dev/sda2 ext4 2065152 1878636 61896 97% / tmpfs tmpfs 256964 0 256964 0% /dev/shm tmpfs tmpfs 5120 0 5120 0% /run/lock tmpfs tmpfs 256964 0 256964 0% /sys/fs/cgroup tmpfs tmpfs 102400 20 102380 1% /tmp /dev/sda6 ext4 4709920 9736 4437888 1% /home /dev/sda1 ext2 240972 44594 183937 20% /boot tmpfs tmpfs 51396 0 51396 0% /run/user/1000 Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [o] Detect network card: [o] Configure network: [o] Detect CD: [ ] Load installer modules: [o] Clock/timezone setup: [o] User/password setup: [o] Detect hard drives: [o] Partition hard drives: [o] see note 1 Install base system: [o] Install tasks: [o] Install boot loader: [ ] Overall install: [o] Comments/Problems: note 1: As you can see from the partition table shown above, It took almost 5GB of the 8GB USB stick I gave it for /home. This leaves root and swap perilously little space for anything but a very basic install. If I ran the world, I'd make sure that the root ("everything but /home and swap) partition got at least 4GB; and swap got at least 4 times the size of system RAM. -- Please make sure that the hardware-summary log file, and any other installation logs that you think would be useful are attached to this report.
