[HELP]: apt-setup/tzsetup l10n idea
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
I'm trying better l10n (localization) around base-config (mainly
apt-setup, tzsetup).
I wrote a patch Bug#233995 against apt-setup.
This patch provides to get country list from iso-codes (if iso-codes
doesn't exist, apt-setup simply shows in English).
I have a question.
1. Everyone, do you accept to install iso-codes for all environment?
iso-codes needs around 2Mbytes. For better l10n, iso-codes is
really good database. But for native English users, this looks just
big disk eater.
I'm looking tzsetup, but it seems more challenging...
tzsetup needs l10nize for city list (area list is already l10nized by
tzsetup itself).
tzsetup.templates shows:
Template: tzconfig/select_zone
Type: select
Choices: ${choices}
Description: ...
This means if I simply l10nize choices, $RET value from this debconf
is l10nized string. This is not useful for tzsetup routine.
One of suck idea is to provide like this and set values by tzsetup:
Template: tzconfig/select_zone
Type: select
Choices: ${choices}
Choices-ja.UTF-8: ${choices-l10n}
Choices-...: ${choices-l10n}
...
Description: ...
2. Joey, do you have good idea?
Thanks,
- --

And one thing that i am concerning was this debian installer should have the dual boot option of LILO ( like previous woody ). For example, we able to boot from all the drive that we had partition. Because after i installed the debian using the debian installer, the boot option straight boot to linux, and i lost my windows MBR. Even i tried to re-configure the LILO and using grub it doesn't work. And for the boot option i would suggest it support vanilla as well,since my LCD display could properly display the wording during installation.Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Suggestion for installation manual
In section 2.2, "Installation media", it would be good to have a reference to section 3.7, "Installing Debian GNU/Linux from a Unix/Linux system". I spent ages trying to work out if this installation method was possible (perhaps I should have read the table of contents). It might also be worth mentioning in section 3.7 that this is an alternative to remote installation. I intend to install Debian on a machine that has no CD ROM drive and no hard disk this way: by installing to a USB key on another machine, then plugging the key into the target machine and using a boot floppy to boot the whole thing. I imagine that this sort of thing is becoming more common with the advent of affordable large USB keys and similar media. -- http://www.mupsych.org/~rrt/ Kleineken: refreshes the dimensions other beers cannot reach -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Installation report - failed install
Two big problems, libdevmapper1.00 now needs to be installed, Another system with a 120GB drive requires CONFIG_IDEDISK_STROKE compiled into the kernel to see the entire drive.

I was able to manually download the required libdevmapper1.00 package, replace the nano package with that (so it would get installed). There must be other problems because it didn't download a kernel, but I already had a kernel I bult on another system so I could continue to get the system up and running with.

Configure and Mount Parititions question
Hello, My name is Steve and I am using the Beta 2 debian-installer. I have two hard drives on my system - one drive contains a Windows FAT32 partition, the other drive contains the Linux partitions I set up through the Partition a hard drive step. I've configured those Linux partitions with a filesystem type (and a swap partition) and where I want the partition mounted. The thing that concerns me is that the Configure and Mount partitions screen shows my other hard drive with the FAT32 partition. My concern is that because the FAT32 partition is listed, the installer will recreate a FAT32 partition on that disk and overwrite the data I have there. Is the installer actually going to do that, or is it just there to say that the FAT32 partition will be mounted and added to /etc/fstab? I could not find an answer in the Beta 2 or cvs INSTALLATION_HOWTO. Should a screen show up before actually creating and mounting the partitions that goes something like this? [screen] The following filesystems will be created (WARNING! All data on these partitions will be destroyed!): [Linux partition 1] [Linux partition 2] [Linux partition 3] [Linux partition 4] The following partitions will be mounted: [FAT32 partition] [Linux partition 1] [Linux partition 2] [Linux partition 3] [Linux partition 4] Ready to create file systems and mount partitions? Go Back Yes No [/screen] If I saw this screen I would have no worries about my FAT32 partition. Thanks, Steve -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#234136: autopartkit: Using /media/cdrom instead of /cdrom
Package: autopartkit
Version: 0.79
I have been asked to add /media in base-files to follow the FHS standard,
which I have just done, but of course adding /media will not make our
system more FHS compliant unless we actually use /media/cdrom instead
of /cdrom and such.
I believe this patch is the only thing required for /media/cdrom to be
used by the install program, since APT relies on the information
written in /etc/fstab.
Please drop me a note whenever this patch or something similar is
applied (or simply reassign this bug back to the base-files package)
so that I can safely stop creating /floppy and /cdrom in base-files.
(I suspect that I could already do this, if, as it seems, this code
runs even before base-files and the other base packages are unpacked).
Thanks.
Patch follows:

I fixed a similar problem with booting from floppy in init.bootflopy in rootskel 0.47. I found that to fully unmount the initrd, I needed to unmount initrd before doing the pivot_root. Perhaps the same or a similar problem persists in the regular init used by CDs, though I don't understand where the second initrd copy comes from for CDs. I'm not in a postition to make CD images, so I cannot try it, but you might try adding an umount /initrd before the pivot_root in sbin/init. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux dragon 2.4.22 #1 Sun Oct 12 15:11:10 EDT 2003 i686 Locale: LANG=3Den_US, LC_CTYPE=3Den_US --=20 see shy jo --PNTmBPCT7hxwcZjr Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/oxhed8HHehbQuO8RAqs4AKDcnTDxiZsrsetbdXC9dNUwRrDqOQCg3O35 qS1GDI6z/iK9U/+3KHvFWiI= =PBh/ -END PGP SIGNATURE- --PNTmBPCT7hxwcZjr-- --- Received: (at 218602-done) by bugs.debian.org; 21 Feb 2004 23:11:31 + >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Feb 21 15:11:31 2004 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from kitenet.net [64.62.161.42] (postfix) by spohr.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1AugHT-0008EG-00; Sat, 21 Feb 2004 15:11:31 -0800 Received: from dragon.kitenet.net (pm3naxs13-140.access.naxs.com [216.98.93.140]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (Client CN "Joey Hess", Issuer "Joey Hess" (verified OK)) by kitenet.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id DDB8517F0E for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sat, 21 Feb 2004 23:10:57 + (GMT) Received: by dragon.kitenet.net (Postfix, from userid 1000) id CE85F6E12D; Sat, 21 Feb 2004 18:11:06 -0500 (EST) Date: Sat, 21 Feb 2004 18:11:06 -0500 From: Joey Hess <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: confirmed fixed Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="BXVAT5kNtrzKuDFl" Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.5.1+cvs20040105i Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_02_18 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on spohr.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.0 requir

Kernel Update Failure
Hi There. I have been trying to update my Kernel to 2.4.x from 2.2.20 (Woody). I edited /etc/lilo.conf to and added initrd, etc, and the computer boots will boot to X, however after updating the Kernel is lose most of my drivers including my network card and I get a massive list of unresolved deps in the boot screen. Is there any advise you can give me? I tried searching Debian.org, but the search engine is either broken or simply doesn't work in Windows. Any help would be appreciated. Rob PS: Also if you could point me to the right email address to resolve an issue where I cannot open Konqeror or other DCOP based applications in KDE - I have checked KDE for support and only a dial-up issue exists. Since I don't have modems in anything and have high speed cable, I don't think this is the issue. Interestingly enough this KDE error shows up on a Celeron as well as on my old MPSparcSS10 architecture. Thank you again for your time.

Installing Debian using debian-sarge-netinst.iso (powerpc)
Hi all. First of all, apologies if this is not the correct mailing list for a newbie-ish question. (I have done some reading! ). As debian-sarge-netinst.iso is under development and I am trying to use it to install Debian on a PowerPC, (Apple G4), I thought debian-powerpc and debian-boot were probably the best places to ask. First of all, I'm trying to create a dual-boot system. MacOSX in already installed and I have downloaded the 'debian-sarge-netinst.iso' disk image and burned it to CD. I doubt very much there is a problem with the CD. It is my understanding of the precise partitioning and mount configuration needed, (in fact, the whole process! ), which is lacking I'm afraid. I have partitioned my hard drive, (using Apple's Disk Utility), as follows: PartitionVolume nameFS typeSize Mount point / intended use 3 DebRoot HFS+ 2 GB / (boot partition, i.e., /bin, /sbin, /dev, /etc and /lib) 5 DebSwap HFS+ 1 GB /swap 7 DebRest HFS+ 9 GB the rest ( /boot, /tmp, /var, /usr, /home, e.t.c ) 9 DebOSX UFS 11 GB Debian/OSX file exchange volume 11 MacOSX HFS+ 12 GB MacOSX volume The logic behind this partitioning scheme is to give 12 GB to Debian, 12 GB to MacOSX and the remainder to be a shared file exchange volume. So, booting up from the CD, everything works fine, (language selection, hardware detection, DHCP configuration, e.t.c.), and I am duly presented with the above partition map and invited to create the filesystems, (I selected 'ext2' for partition 3 and 7, and 'swap' for partition 5), and configure my mount points, (I selected '/' for partition 3, '/swap' for partition 5 and left partition 7 unmounted as there doesn't seem to be a way of choosing more than one directory per partition). The installation then proceeds fine, (packages are read from disk and installed), until finally I am presented with the following message: "No bootstrap partition found. There must be an 800K Apple_Bootstrap partition named 'bootstrap' of type 'Apple_Bootstrap' before you can continue", or words to that effect. Is this message not referring to partition 1, (which shows up on the partition map but isn't called 'bootstrap')? I really don't want to repartition my hard disk, (and reinstall MacOSX), again! Any help much much much appreciated. Thanks in advance, sebyte P.S. Are there any good reasons for choosing ext2 filesystems over ext3, or vice versa?

For whatever reason when I tried to set this system up with a stable CD it ran really slow, using this testing CD made it install nice and run fast.
