Hi!
When installing Debian inside a SPARC LDOM virtual machine, d-i
is unable to detect any virtual CD-ROM drives when scanning for
the installation media.
debian-installer uses 'udevadm info' to check which of the available
block devices are actually CD drives for which the 60-cdrom_id.rules
rules file applies. See the discussion in [1].
Since 60-cdrom_id.rules has a whitelist for the block devices it
checks, we need to add "vdisk*" to the whitelist so that udev
will also scan the vdisk block devices found inside a SPARC
LDOM virtual machine.
Thus, could you please add "vdisk*" to the whitelist in the
60-cdrom_id.rules file so that debian-installer detects the
virtual CD-ROM drives inside a SPARC LDOM?
The attached patch is enough.
Thanks,
Adrian
