Sure.
I keep booting
linux DEBCONF_PRIORITY=medium
because without it I have difficulties to assign the correct menu
points to what I see ...
* Choose Language
yes, arabic shows ???????
* Detect and mount CD-ROM
. modprobe -v ide-disk fails, known bug,
ide-disk has been loaded by ide-detect before. And I believe
with "high" priority, the error message is not shown.
"continue", no problem
* Install Grub Bootloader
The step completed without error, however:
. I'm not formatting the /boot partition in earlier steps.
. There is a grub/menu.lst file from other sarge installations
already when grub-update is called
. a menu entry with the install kernel is already present, but
not neccessarily correct
. the menu entry featuring 2.4.22-1-386 kernel pointed to a
different root device (1,3), and was not overwritten with the
current device (0,0), nor was an additional entry appended.
. I also had to add devfs=/dev,dall, of course.
This is fairly special, so I cannot tell, whether this is to be
considered a bug.
"Smoke Test" reboot:
* reiserfsck is not available (known problem)
* Configure apt
I have added "http://ip.of.my.gwbox/apt-cacher/"; into the proxy
line, but the following apt-get update fails the same way as if
no network was available. Variations with IP vs. name, adding
ports, adding or leaving trailing '/' did not make a
difference. Things are not obvious for me to track, because the
sources.list file is not written at this point.
Editing sources.list by hand and adding the apt-cacher does
work. I think it would be nice, if it worked from the proxy,
but that's just me.
* Select packages to install
. selected aptitude
. only _selected_ packages, but did not proceed to install
* Install selected packages
. did not install the additional selections.
known problem. awaiting --selections-only for aptitude, or similar
when booting "net" instead:
* yes, I have seen the "validating %s", too.
* I still saw the split netcfg (dhcp, static), but not sure if
this was in yesterdays image (2004-01-01)
Hope this helps,
Erich
