Package: debian-installer Version: 20170615+deb9u4 Followup-For: Bug #863651
Dear Maintainer, Just ran into the same problem with the actual debian 9 netinst iso installer. Partitioned disks and wanted to create a bcache device - there is no way to do this out of the installer. So you have to take the hard way to first install normally and then use a live CD to backup, re-partition and then restore. Nowasays SSD are common and using bcache is a nice way to speed up the spindle disks of the system. At least put make-bcache onto the installer image so you can create that filesystem manually from the installer console. -Benoît- -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.14.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_CH.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_CH.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_CH:de (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
