Package: debian-installer Version: 20201202 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, As I reported at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=976807 Bullseye arm64 d-i does not provide graphical installation to QEMU VMs. So I tried text-based installation. The installer says: <Tab> moves; <Space> selects; <Enter> activates buttons But <Space> is not recognized. When I type an alphabet letter, the selection moves to an item starting with that letter, but when there are multiple items starting with the same latter (e.g. Africa and Asia), I cannot choose the second item (e.g. Asia). This really prevents me from installation... qemu-system-aarch64 is started as follows: #!/bin/sh ARCH=arm64 IMAGE=/var/tmp/qemu-disk-${ARCH}.qcow2 CDROM=/var/tmp/debian-bullseye-DI-alpha3-${ARCH}-netinst.iso rm -f $IMAGE qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o compat=1.1 -o lazy_refcounts=on -o preallocation=off $IMAGE 20G cd /var/tmp cp /usr/share/AAVMF/AAVMF_VARS.fd . qemu-system-aarch64 \ -nographic -enable-kvm -machine virt,iommu=smmuv3,acpi=on -cpu host -m 3072 -smp 2\ -net nic,model=virtio -net user -object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0 \ -device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0,id=rng-device0 \ -drive if=virtio,file=${IMAGE},index=0,format=qcow2,discard=unmap,detect-zeroes=unmap,media=disk \ -drive if=virtio,file=${CDROM},index=1,format=raw,readonly=on,media=cdrom \ -drive if=pflash,format=raw,unit=0,file=/usr/share/AAVMF/AAVMF_CODE.fd,readonly=on \ -drive if=pflash,format=raw,unit=1,file=AAVMF_VARS.fd # -device qemu-xhci -device usb-kbd -device usb-mouse -device ramfb # -device virtio-gpu-pci Best regards, Ryutaroh Matsumoto -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: arm64 (aarch64) Kernel: Linux 5.9.0-4-arm64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_CRAP Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- no debconf information
