Package: debian-cd
Version: 3.1.20
Severity: important
Hi everyone,
I've used simple-cdd to create a Debian Installer CD which would result in
having a pretty complex append line::
kernel /install.amd/vmlinuz
append auto url=bootimage-01.zdv.uni-mainz.de/d-i/stretch/scvmm.cfg
language=en country=DE locale=en_US.UTF-8 keymap=de hostname=unassigned-
hostname domain=unassigned-domain preseed/file=/cdrom/simple-
cdd/default.preseed debian-installer/locale=en_US console-keymaps-at/keymap=de
keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap=de keyboard-configuration/layout=de simple-
cdd/profiles=zdv,scvmm vga=788 initrd=/install.amd/initrd.gz --- quiet
The first parameters, up to domain= are mine, the others are added by simple-
cdd.
This seems to work fine for the isolinux part, but generating the Grub efi menu
entries using parse_isolinux generates almost linux and initrd lines::
linux /install.amd/vmlinuz
initrd
The respective logfile of debian-cd says::
stdout: Adding EFI boot code for amd64 on CD1
stderr: Use of uninitialized value $k{"append"} in substitution (s///) at
/data/schlarbm/simple-cdd/tmp/debian-cd/tools/boot/stretch/parse_isolinux line
105.
stderr: Use of uninitialized value $k{"append"} in concatenation (.) or string
at /data/schlarbm/simple-cdd/tmp/debian-cd/tools/boot/stretch/parse_isolinux
line 111.
stderr: Use of uninitialized value $initrd in concatenation (.) or string at
/data/schlarbm/simple-cdd/tmp/debian-cd/tools/boot/stretch/parse_isolinux line
112.
[...]
Now I don't know whether the problem lies in the sheer length of the line or in
any of the characters in it.
Regards,
Moritz
