Fwor! Gotta give that a go...

Hey, can the installer handle setting up a degraded RAID array (i.e. a
RAID-1 mirror with the second disk missing) yet? mdadm can certainly handle
the concept.

This would be great for situations where you want RAID-1 but don't have two
disks at your disposal at install time.

I based the comment on a mail from Konstantinos I recently revisited, see :

Sorry, I was under the impression that a user that installed
'localization-config' would have update-locale-config run on his system in
the packages' postinst. Reviewing the package's maintainer scripts I now
see that this is actually not true.

Agreed. Feel free to bug links/lynx/mozilla and other similar packages 
about it.

localization-config: Manpage improvements (usage, options, internal working and additional resources)

[Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña]

Package: localization-config
Version: 0.104
Priority: wishlist
Tags: patch

As Konstantinos requested a few months back, here is a patch for the
current 'update-locale-config' manpage in localization-config. I've
introduce some information based on a review of the source code, but, then
again, my english wording probably sucks and I might have missed something
important on how the script works.

I have added information to almost all the different sections and have
rewritten the sections on how to add new languages and software support
with a generic section describing how package scripts work. I've also added
pointers to additional i18n related materials/tools that developers/users
might find worthwhile reading/using.

Best regards

Javier

+suffix, most of these will modify configuration files that are available

Unfortunately I havn't got an comparable machine available at the

Actually, I even hadn't notice that the CD drive was really an USB one

I had to resize pre-installed windows' ntfs partition, and hopefully the
pre-rc2 is advertised as having "online ntfs resizer". But it isn't
advertised in the installation process. The partitionning tool just
tells that there is no room for creating linux partitions. It should
rather see that there is an ntfs partition, and hence propose the
user to launch a shell and use the resize tool by hand. Actually,

Do you remember when it did turn out to Mojibake?

Was it before or after the reboot?

I think his problem is on 1st stage.
I don't know about alpha arch, but I assume framebuffer isn't ready for
his alpha machine. If d-i can't use framebuffer, all of you can use
practically is only English or a few latin languages.

Not ATM. There are 2 open wishlist bug to implement this (the oldest from

That's a shame. I would have thought it'd be relatively easy to implement,
but I haven't given the innards of what's involved close inspection...

procede because it sayed something like (No partitionable
devices found) so I guess it did not recognize my HHDs. I
have 2 SCA HDDs on that machine. By the way, I was
successfull in installing Debian 3.0_r2 (Woody) although I
was not successfull in implementing Japanese Localization.

Thank you very much for making free software.

I can boot this host from a customized 2.4.27 kernel provided by a third

could install from scratch Sarge in this host.

This is supported in the latest daily builds of the installer [1] and will 
be supported in the next release.

These messages are caused by hotplug trying to load modules that are not 
supported by your hardware. You can get rid of them by blacklisting these 
modules in /etc/hotplug/blacklist or by compiling a custom kernel.

Comments/Problems:

I'm sorry I had to put an 'E' at initial boot. There was not a major
problem, but since we want to promote Debian: the isolinux graphical
boot screen was severely scrambled to the point that the clueless won't
know what to do. Of course, he'll try the enter key, but he won't know
anything about the possible boot options (linux26, for example). This
machine is about 5 years old and has a Trident Cyberblade i7 on board.
However, there's nothing wrong with booting linux with vesafb with
vga=0x315, so I don't really know what went wrong.

Apart from this, I was very impressed by the new installer! Only
'problems' I had, were with tasksel (strange combinations of software
installed). I won't bother you with that.

Thanks for all the good work!

David

Bug#239289: Install Problems

[Gary]

Hi,
 
I was going through the bug list for the installer 
and came across this bug myself.  You asked the person having the problem 
to try a newer version of the installer.  I personally have tried up to 
10/18/04 version of the installer with the same results.  I have a Dell 
Latitude C600 with the latest BIOS (A23).  It is a 750 MHz with 256M 
RAM.  The CDROM is a Toshiba XM-1902A.  Although this is a i386 I am 
experiencing the same problems as the Alpha.  The CD boots fine.  
After answering the first few questions about which language etc. it stops when 
trying to load the base system.  The screen goes blank (blue) and after a 
while it says I have the wrong CD or no CD inserted.  Going go a terminal 
show that the CDROM is indeed mounted at /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 if my memory serves 
me properly.  Hope this helps.  Thanks.

Bug#277493: lowmem: Incorrectly sets country

[Christian Perrier]

Package: lowmem
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

lowmem sets countrychooser/country instead of setting
countrychooser/shortlist.

The consequence is "Andorra" as the default country when countrychooser
later runs. This is more annoying than critical...

Bug#277177: installer hangs in "detecting filesystems"

[Hugo Vanwoerkom]

This morning after leaving the system off I booted and one disk is gone. 
I don't think it is the disk but the mobo or something.

I don't think this problem is the installer's, but of course I don't 
know the installer ;-)

hdb is now unavailable to me. I am running on hda8 with 2.6.7. It cannot 
access hdb. When I reboot I think I will see garbage in the bios field 
for the primary slave.

Bug#248855: Fw: Bug#248855: about your Debian installation report

[Wiktor Wandachowicz]

Problems, problems, problems...
As Joey requested, I used a CD from:
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sid_d-i/sparc/pre-rc2/sarge-sparc-businesscard.iso
=
Option chosen at boot: linux
Linux kernel: 2.4.27
1) initial installer screen
   + no strange black boxes instead of non-ASCII characters
   - non-working USB keyboard
Nothing else could be tested :-(
This is a VERY old problem. Some daily d-i CD builds were
sometimes able to solve this (I've had a working USB keyboard).
=
Option chosen at boot: rescue
Linux kernel: 2.4.27
Oops. A message:
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 00:00
Press L1-A to return to the boot prom
Alas, the L1-A (actually: Stop+A) combination never works for Debian.
So, nothing more could be tested :-(
=
Specyfying that I would like to use different keyboard:
 boot: linux bootkbd=qwerty/us
didn't help. Another try:
 boot: linux verbose
and the keyboard is still frozen. For now I used documentation from:
 http://www.debian.org.releases/stable/sparc/ch-rescue-boot.en.html
Feeling that I'm doing something wrong, I searched again and I found:
 http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.sparc/ch05s02.html
So I tried:
 boot: linux debconf/priority=low
Only a minor success. I could see a d-i main menu, but I still was
unable to get to the important option:
 Select a keyboard layout
Then again I tried:
 boot: linux debian-installer/probe/usb=true
Complete bummer. Keyboard still frozen. At this point I gave up.
=
Later the same day I tried the daily build:
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sid_d-i/sparc/20041019/sarge-sparc-businesscard.iso
The same problems. I think I could use some help.

Worked well.
Upgrading to 2.6 kernel would be easier if XF86Config-4 mouse

Thanks for the good work.

ACPI is fairly essential for modern laptops as among other things it 
drives power management.

I'm not sure what exactly is causing your keyboard problems.
It is very much possible this is not an installation problem, but that 
there is a bug in the kernel or that the ACPI of your laptop is not 
properly supported by the 2.6.8 kernel.

For example, I found this message:
http://linux.toshiba-dme.co.jp/ML/tlinux-users/6200/6245.html

I suggest you search ACPI and laptop mailing lists and maybe post your 
problem there.
Starting points could be the debian-laptop mailing list and the ACPI 
website on sourceforge (http://acpi.sourceforge.net/).

Good luck,
FJP

Comments/Problems:
Worked well.
Upgrading to 2.6 kernel would be easier if XF86Config-4 mouse
duplication was automatically fixed.
I would also have liked the option to partition using good ol' fashioned
fsidk, but the automatic partitioning worked well.
Thanks for the good work.

I don't think it is the disk but the mobo or something.

Why use it by hand? Go into the partitioner, select your ntfs partition,
and tell it to change its size.

Ok, reasonable idea I suppose, I'll reassign this bug to base-config for

Yeah, those lists are nasty.

No sound in GNOME !!!

[xerces8]

Installed sarge from with the debian.installer pre-rc2 netinst CD.
Used the official weekly binary snapshot from 20040925 for the rest.

I selected Slovene keyboard, "GNOME destop" package and mostly
accepted the default settings.

I log into the destop ( X11 / GNOME ) and ...

No sound !

No devices detected etc ... mixer does not work...

Hardware is VIA 82c ( works since ages under linux )

The mixer (volume control) in the upper right corner does not work.

The preferences/advanced/multimedia applet fails for testing.
( when pressing the test button it shows an error dialog )
The only choice in this dialog is ALSA.

lsmod suggests that the OSS modules are loaded.

I remember seeing OSS ( and esound and artsd ) as options in the
mentioned preferences applet in a previous installation of sarge
( using different options, settings, packages ..., but same versions,
except kernel was 2.6.x )

Known issue ? Submit a bug ?

Regards,
xerces

P.S.: Is there a way to search existing debian bugs by keywords ?
I couldn't find a way, the page http://www.debian.org/Bugs/ only knows
to search by package, source package, maintainer email, submitter email,
severity or tag. Google does not seem to have access to the bugs.

I wonder if you know what kind of hard dsk controller there is on this
machine, and perhaps what kernel module to load for it. If you have an
existing linux installation on the machine, can you run these two

I assumed this is where it was cycling, but I do not understand why it
does not pause and show the apt-setup/badsource message between loops.

That is a result of bug #275122 and is unrelated to the loop.

Would it be possible for you to boot passing DEBCONF_DEBUG=. and get me

udebs that need upload (non-i386)

[Joey Hess]

The following udebs that cannot be build on i386 need to be uploaded
soon if they're to make the release:

partitioner (Code change is required for mips, tested by ths. m68k mips or s390)
silo-installer (Many updated translations. Code changes that may need testing.)
partman-palo (Many code changes, translations. Would need testing first.)

Of these, the partitioner upload is required before we can release, the
others are optional so if nothing is done we will use the older
versions.

This is not a Debian Installer bug. Localization-config should have
taken care of that.

However, you mention you were prompted for keyboard layout and entered
"sl". However, the keyboard layout for Slovenian seems to be "si"
according to localization-config data.

Please try to "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86" and use "si" instead
of "sl".

On the other hand, localization-config should have properly preseeded
this dataso I keep this bug assigned to it.

lowmem sets countrychooser/country instead of setting
countrychooser/shortlist.

The consequence is "Andorra" as the default country when countrychooser
later runs. This is more annoying than critical...

lowmem override disparity

[Debian Installer]

There are disparities between your recently accepted upload and the
override file for the following file(s):

lowmemcheck_1.06_i386.udeb: package says priority is standard, override says optional.

Either the package or the override file is incorrect.  If you think
the override is correct and the package wrong please fix the package
so that this disparity is fixed in the next upload.  If you feel the
override is incorrect then please reply to this mail and explain why.

[NB: this is an automatically generated mail; if you replied to one
like it before and have not received a response yet, please ignore
this mail.  Your reply needs to be processed by a human and will be in
due course, but until then the installer will send these automated
mails; sorry.]

It turns out that the correct module is the one from http://ipw2200.sf.net/ 
which is not in the mainline kernel yet. Also, some of the power management 
issues (esp. lack of speedstep support) are fixed in kernel 2.6.9, so this 
isn't an installer issue.

Content of CDs / DVDs

[Bartosz Fenski aka fEnIo]

Hello.

Since sarge (and everything later) will contain at least 14 CDs I would
like to ask simple question:

Is there *any* way to check what packages are available on particular CD
without downloading iso and mounting it locally?

If not (and I'm assuming that's the right answer) then what about adding
some txt files alongside isos?
Simple list of packages shouldn't (and won't) take much space and will be
very helpful for newbies which still ask what are all of those CDs for.

regards
fEnIo

Indeed, there is currently no framebuffer support for alphas in d-i.

A step up from there, a simple CGI that let the user specify a few
packages they'd like to be able to install (gnome, kde, etc.) and then
be provided with a list of which disks they'll need to download to
install those packages along with all dependencies.

I've not tried this.  It *may* work.  But, as you say, it's off-track.
2) Pass 'boot-file' arguments from the OF prompt. Something, again,

this platform: and something I've puposefully neglected doing for
obvious reasons to those, like me, who spend too much time in OFland.

I've tried this.  It doesn't work.  The arguments never get to the 
kernel.  I'm not sure why.

Both are yucky, but if nobody can give me course corrections, I guess
I'm headed back down. Oh, where are you liloppc or grubppc?

I've been wondering about maybe trying the following...
BootX takes a kernel image and an initrd image and loads them into 
memory along with some kernel args.

Why can't I take the kernel image and the ramdisk image off the 
floppies and hand them to BootX along with my desired kerenel args?

That would give me a straightforward way of setting the kernel 
arguments without having to make my own boot floppies.

What do you think?

A step up from there... what about some CGI where user could specify some
packages and get full working isos which contain those packages with
dependencies?

Of course this won't be created online, but such images could be put
on web after some time and could be identified with some session id.
(in addition user would be forced to confirm such creation by
 email/whatever to not overload mirror/server)

I think that such possibility would be *extremely* useful.
Let's be honest... how many of us will download full CD set of sarge?

I know that Custom Debian Distributions are planned/made already, but would
be great for any comments about mentioned solution.

IMHO this would be great to pick-up some packages and get iso(s) ready for
installation.

Or maybe it would be better to use the jigdo? The user specifies the 
packages and the jigdo template is automatically created for him. Than he 
can download the necessary packages from his favourite mirror and burn 
the CD/DVD.

Of course! Now I can't believe I didn't think about jigdo first... probably
because I'm not very familiar with it.

Assuming that it allows to create custom isos then it's great for this
purpose.

In fact alongside picking up custom packages we could create some
predefined (maybe based on the popularity) templates.

Anyone willing to work on it? Maybe some Alioth project?
I'm not DD yet so someone else would be forced to create such project.
But I would like to contribute in such addition to project.

Bug#277592: pre-rc2 i386: bottom portion of screen not viewable

[Marc Juul Christoffersen]

Package: installation-reports

INSTALL REPORT

Debian-installer-version: pre-rc2 sarge-i386-netinst.iso

Method: boot from CD, entering 'linux26'

Machine: Mitac 8050D - widescreen centrino laptop


Comments/Problems:
Everything works as it should (though the background is red, 
as others have reported) but the bottom of the screen is not viewable.
This is due to the installer filling the entire width of my display, 
while still keeping the default aspect ratio.
This is a problem because my laptop display 
has a non standard aspect ratio (widescreen).
The installer still works, i just have to guess whats at the bottom,
and try to work my way through based on my guesses.

Yes, I tested it and it works correctly.

I'm not sure what problems you're refering to: this fixes the spurious
"You didn't create a boot partition" warning if you use guided
partitioning.

Does it work if you install gstreamer0.8-oss?

After using the entire disk, accepting the default autopartitioning
scheme, and formatting the disk, partman displays the following
warning:

 No NewWorld boot partition was found. The yaboot boot loader requires
 an Apple_Bootstrap partition of at least 819200 bytes in size, using
 the HFS Macintosh file system.

 Go back to the menu and resume partitioning?

For some reason, the boot partition's file system is set to ext2,
which causes partman-newworld's finish.d script to not recognize it.

If I continue despite the warning, the install works.

/usr/share/bug/discover1 contains:

exec /usr/share/bug/discover1-data $@

The /usr/share/bug/discover1-data file is in discover1-data so discover1
should Depend on discover1-data.

This is a minor bug because discover1 Depends on libdiscover1 which
Depends on discover1-data.

As it is currently written, discover1 will not ignore files in

Here is a patch that fixes this.

On my freshly installed Debian unstable, /etc/init.d/discover fails to
create the symlinks in /dev and /media. I trace this down with "sh -x
/etc/init.d/discover start" and found out that the script stopped on
an error while grepping /proc/mounts, therefore never finishing its
job.

If I suppress "set -e" at the beginning of the script, the symlinks
are correctly created.

Here is a partial output of "sh -x /etc/init.d/discover start":
  [...]
  + aliases=
  + sed 's/ .*$//' /proc/modules
  + grep -qE '^(usb-uhci)$'
  + echo 'Skipping already loaded module usb-uhci.'
  Skipping already loaded module usb-uhci.

You may want to try one of the following kernel parameters:

vga=normal
debian-installer/framebuffer=false

With the latter, you won't have a correct display for non Latin
languages, though.

Subject: Re: Bug#277592: pre-rc2 i386: bottom portion of screen not viewable

thanks.
the option:
debian-installer/framebuffer=false
worked for me.
vga=normal did nothing.
however, aside from the non correct display of non latin
characters, it did create a small visual oddity in the first menu.

nothing important though, i'm sure it's related to the non-latin thing

Marc.
