Comments/Problems:
Both i386 and kfreebsd-amd64 installs were straightforward, both systems run
well. Both systems play nicely with MacOS on the same drive.
Thankyou thankyou thankyou, for the grub2 changes that eliminate any need for
rEFIt or any other helper program. Somebody did some great work to make this
happen.
The two installed Debian architectures are i386 and kfreebsd-amd64. Debian
jessie makes a biosgrub partition that shows up on the Mac Pro option-poweron
(or option-reboot) sequence that actually starts up grub2 which then selects a
system and boots either the i386 or kfreebsd-amd64 systems. I manually modified
the installed kfreebsd-amd64 grub2 menu using the i386 /boot/grub/grub.cfg file
to supply the parameters.
The i386 installer recognized the Intel Corporation 80003ES2LAN ethernet
controller; the kfreebsd-amd64 did not recognize the controller but used it
anyway with no apparent ill effects. As this is an installation report not a
bug report, I'll generating a separate bug report for this unrecognized card.
I have been running Debian jessie i386 and kfreebsd-amd64 for a about a week,
installing from their respective netinst CD's. I started by removing all
working drives from the 4 bays, and inserting one for the installs. This one
drive was formmated by booting MacOS from an external drive, then formatting it
with MacOS Disk Utility. This leaves the single drive with only the EFI
partition and a HFS+ partition named "Untitled".
The i386 system was installed first. I deleted the "Untitled" partition,
created some ext4/ext2 partitions for commonext2, root/boot, added swap and
biosgrub, and Debian i386 just installed cleanly. It booted cleanly, without
needing any MacOS or rEFIt. Its /boot partition is specifically separate and is
ext2 format to be readily accessible to and updatable by the kfreebsd-amd64
system.
I then installed kfreebsd-amd64. The installer wanted to reuse swap and
biosgrub between the two architectures; I took great pains to make sure the
kfreebsd-amd64 swap and biosgrub partitions were distinct from the i386
install. It also has a separate /boot partition that is also ext2 to make it
readable/writable by any other Debian system that needs it. Now the
kfreebsd-amd64 system is the default system, and i386 system has to be selected
from a modified grub2 menu. See Appendix 1 for the final partition layout
See above for the final partition layout. There are some partitions not related
to the installation process that are identified in the notes.
