SVN installation problem
hi, As you might know that we are working to translate Debian-installer in urdu for DEBIAN UBUNTU 5.10 (Breezy). To Take the source of Installer we need to install SVN on our system, but we are getting some problems. We have downloaded both the DEB and the Source packages, but they are all showing some dependency problems. Is there any easy way to install SVN on this system, or some Authentic Procedure to install it. Also, if u have SVN installed on your system, as we are having some problems on our system, Could you send me the Source Code after checking it out from SVN with the following command, svn co svn://svn.debian.org/svn/d-i/trunk \ debian-installer --- Hoping For Best Response Tahir Rauf Butt Bsc(Hons).

Customization-modules: working version
OK, after much work I have a functional version of customization-modules, at http://home.twcny.rr.com/nerode/neroden/debian/customization-modules_0.7.tar.gz . http//home.twcny.rr.com/nerode/neroden/debian/dummy-udeb_0.2_all.udeb contains a mostly-empty udeb which I use as a test case: this is the udeb I attempt to install as a "customization module". Look for /lib/firmware/dummy-file.txt. Loading from CD-ROM is disabled because of unforeseen problems -- loading cdrom-retriever causes the CD-ROM to be checked for validity, and of course the netboot CD isn't a valid Debian apt source. I suspect that the best solution will be tweaks of a similar scale to the tweaks I made to net-retriever (small tweaks, that is). Loading from the network is untested, mainly because I haven't set up a network site to load from. Loading from floppy, however, *works* as of now. One minor issue: upon configuring anna, which happens when I invoke the customization-modules main menu item, anna asks about kernel module loading. I have simply been saying "no". Is there some way to avoid this -- to tell anna 'do that later, not now'? Under the expected use case, we may well want to load the customization modules specifically *before* loading kernel modules. Future plans: I think I'll have to break this into four binary packages. One for the main menu item, and one for each of the possible sources. This is due to dependencies: I don't want choose-mirror to configure when the user didn't choose net, for instance. All in all, this is going pretty well. -- Nathanael Nerode <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Bush admitted to violating FISA and said he was proud of it.

All partman-auto methods still need to be changed to actually take advantage of multiple disks. So I don't think (from a very quick reading) that the code is currently incorrect (or I'm daft and you need to provide more detail). Currently, the code will go trough the specified disk(s), use the first one which is found and considered valid (by dev_to_partman) and partition it. If you did the partitioning on multiple disks right now, you'd get several independently partitioned disks (each with /boot etc). If no disk is found, an error will be generated (hence the exit 1 outside the loop). On a related note, the method that would be easiest to change would probably be partman-auto-lvm since it only needs to do the pvcreate dance on each disk, then lvcreate with all used disks and after that it can proceed as usual without any further code changes. -- David Härdeman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Yes, the idea was that every partman-auto-* package should have it's own entry under the "case "$method"" clause. Right now it limits it to one disk for the other partman-auto methods (as they don't support multiple disks), so feel free to add one for raid which doesn't.

The problem from a download perspective is that I want (since its bleeding edge hardware) Etch and don't want to wait for the December release. This means that all downloads have to be completed in the week that they are valid. Is there a sub-project that allows for a tiny initial kernel boot with later download of the proper kernel to install? I've never needed to compile a kernel and I can't now given the small memory and disk available on the 486. Surely I'm not the only one on the planet who has need of a fresh install without a CD burner. Some sytem with just enough smarts to recognize a keyboard (PS/2 or USB), VGA text screen (or serial console?), a modem for PPP, and basic networking. Given an initial floppy image and an empty USB stick, it could do the download of the USB stick install images and set up the stick for the standard USB install. I'll look into this further; I may be able to do this: - on the 486, download the USB install images to zip - boot the new computer using 3.0 install - from the shell, install the USB files to the USB stick - do a normal USB install. If this works, then it becomes a flexible way to make the USB install when only the target computer supports USB. The same method can be used, using any transport to get the data from the old computer to the new one: zip, network (NFS, scp), split files on floppy, etc; whatever media the two computers have in common. For me, right now, it requires that the 3.0 install CD (or floppy) recognized a USB stick; I'll have to see. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I'm afraid that there is no such thing as Debian Ubuntu..:-) What I of course suspect is that you plan to work on the translation of the Ubuntu installer...which happens to be the Debian Installer. Therefore, as I wrote you, getting through the formalized New Language Process is a pre-requirement. This process is exactly designed to sort out all issues you might have to be able to do some productive work. The Debian Installer team welcomes new l10n teams, without restriction. However, we request them to go through this process. I already pointed you to the appropriate documentation in debian-l10n-arabic, IIRC. BTW, have you considered working from the Hindi translations, get through an automated process and then correct the result of it? From my understanding of relations betwee the Hindi and Urdu languages, that could be a great way to have some fast progress. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#391071: partman-auto-crypto: No confirmation before hard-drive wiping
Package: partman-auto-crypto Severity: critical Justification: causes serious data loss Hi! I have tried to use partman-auto-crypto by selecting "Automatically set up encrypted LVM" in the partman menu. I initially thought that it was going to use the free space which was available on the hard-drive. But, while it was wiping the partition, I had a doubt. So one "Alt+F2 + fdisk -l" later, I had the bad surprise to discover that it had actually repartioned the whole drive asking me if it was what I really wanted... I definetly think that a confirmation screen would be needed here. :D Regards, -- Jérémy signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Which exact version of the installer were you using (please provide full URL of the image you downloaded)? The directory is called /var/log/installer. I seriously doubt that /target/var/log/ being on a separate partition affects the saving of the installer logs, unless the partition was not mounted correctly during the installation. Please check if the installer directory is there if you unmount /var/log. Please check the syslog from the installation for possible causes if you manage to find it.

Nothing, it's a matter of taste (meaning it's up to you to decide) :) But I think it might be a bit confusing to see the "regular" entries on the method dialog and a similar entry for the other methods but without the disk: "Erase entire disk: IDE1 Master (hda) - 1.1Gb Qemu harddisk" "Erase entire disk: IDE2 Master (hdb) - 1.1Gb Qemu harddisk" ... "Erase entire disk and automatically set up encrypted lvm" The user would probably be left wondering which disk the last option refers to...not knowing that the disk choice will be the subject of the next dialogue? -- David Härdeman

Re: d-i beta3, raid, loop-aes and lvm
Hello David and Max, thank you for your replies. Am 03.10.2006 um 15:32 schrieb David Härdeman: On Tue, October 3, 2006 15:16, Philipp Engel said: Is that a bug, or is it just not possible? If memory serves me right, the loop-AES utils do not have support (yet) for automatically setting up the LVM volume after the encrypted module has been setup. In addition the loop-AES tools lack the initramfs integration to do the work (in the initramfs) for setting up the root partition. Max talks about only having to tell partman-lvm that it may consider loop devices as valid backing devices. Your description of the solution in contrast sounds far more time consuming and difficult...:) So, can you tell me what's to do? I have checked out the source code of the debian installer and am currently reading the documentation, which is a good amount of text. I will see if I can manage to create my own boot disk, that will be an adventure already :) For now, your alternatives are to use dm-crypt or to implement the missing pieces in the loop-AES packages. I installed using dm-crypt now, but I really would like to try loop- aes. I hope I will find the time to take a look at partman-crypt :) Philipp -- "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

Bug#391071: partman-auto-crypto: No confirmation before hard-drive wiping

I see what you mean, but I don't think it should be delayed. To be honest, I've never been really happy with the inconsistency that was decided on in that menu: having individual disks listed for the normal method, but not for the others. But I had kind of decided to let that pass for Etch. This issue brings it back though. I personally would prefer to consistently delay disk selection to a second level in _all_ cases and explain what the next step will be in the description; something like: The installation system allows you to either automatically partition a disk for the new system (using different standard recipes), or set up partitions manually. If you choose to automatically partition an entire disk, you will next be asked which disk should be used. Partitioning method: Automatic - use the largest continuous free space Automatic - erase entire disk Automatic - erase entire disk and set up LVM Automatic - erase entire disk and set up encrypted LVM Manual This may need to be revised again when we can offer RAID1, but that depends on the implementation and could probably be solved by mentioning that option in the description. It would probably be a could idea to repeat the fact that existing data will be erased after selecting a method that does and we need to add an extra confirmation dialog before the partition table is written when using LVM anyway (see #368633). BTW. I also noticed that with "Use the largest continuous free space" there is currently no indication of what disk will actually be used or how big the free space is. It is of course kind of implied (whichever disk has the largest free space), but IMO it would be kind of nice to tell the user before it is done. pgpCbmut5mS5q.pgp Description: PGP signature
