Foremost, thank you all for this fine installer. It is very intuitive and simply "feels right".
Success report: I installed current i386 netinst daily on AMD Sempron 3000+, 512MB RAM, SATA HDD (on south bridge VIA vt8237, VIA chipset KT890), everything went fine, all devices were recognized (gigabit eth. Marvell 88E8001, Saphire Radeon X550 - incl. acceleration!). Minor question: Why is the modutils package installed when Debian does not use 2.4 kernels anymore? More serious question: I used the following crypto-setup: LVM on the top of one big dm-crypt partition (sda2) + small /boot partition (sda1). LVM currently contains one logical volume "root" holding everything (I'm planning to add "home" and "swap" later). While shutting down the system, I can see that crypto partition can not be stopped, because LVM is still running on the top of it and LVM can not be stopped, because it seems that LV "root" is still open: Deactivating swap...done Unmounting local filesystems...done Stopping remaining crypto disks... sda2_crypt(busy)done. Shutting down LVM Volume Groups... Can't deactivate volume group "vg" with 1 open logical volume(s) Stopping early crypto disks... sda2_crypt(busy)done. Will now halt. Shutdown: sda System halted. That does seem quite scary (as in data integrity). All filesystems were unmounted cleanly, but what about the underlying LVM and Crypto devices? Was their cache really flushed, when they were held open and busy? Regards Frank Bauer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
