I did read the answer. I've also seen two people confirming your bug (see 
also #391962). I have asked the kernel team several times to look at this 
issue, so far without success.

The bug _is_ a kernel bug, or at least, a member of the kernel team should 
help you narrow it down. Please try to work with them. I'm afraid we 
(debian installer team) cannot help you much here.

Problem is that the package is priority standard and thus automatically 
installed. This is not an installer issue. However it is being or will be 
addressed.

This is normal and harmless, unless you would get file system checks on 
the reboot.

Yes, a review of this section would be welcome. It has been updated a few 
times in the past year based on reports received.

Please make sure you use the most recent version of the manual to base 
your review on. This can be found at:
http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/

Please file your findings as a bug report against the package

D-I RC1 - release planning - soft freeze for changes in SVN

[Frans Pop]

Things are finally starting to come together for RC1.
- We've found a good work-around for the bug in g-i where selected lines
  in multi-select lists would not be shown. We need new versions of
  some gtk packages for that, but these have now been uploaded.
  Thanks especially to Loïc Minier for his fast packaging work!
- The last important open TODO items were done during the past week:
  - 2.6 floppy support for i386
  - partman-auto-raid (only through preseeding)

We currently still have some blocking bugs:
- regression in the progress bar in the newt frontend (#391676)
- incorrect display for CJK languages (newt/slang: #392942/392987)
- keyboard support on mips SGI Indigo2 (#382983)
- floppies too big for powerpc (should be possible to resolve using
  new infrastructure by Sylvain Ferriol)

The release preparation page on the wiki [1] is mostly up-to-date with 
regards to issues and TODO items before the release.
The page also lists the changes implemented since Beta 3 which will be 
used as basis for the release notes; let me know if you miss items.


Soft freeze for commits
===
We should now stop making structural changes in the installer, but bug 
fixing is still possible. If you have doubts if a commit is OK, please 
contact me.
Also, please contact me before uploading if you have any doubts.


Please start testing the installer for all architectures NOW

All udebs with functional changes have now been uploaded, so this is an 
excellent time to test different architectures using *daily* images!

We can now still make changes. Please don't wait until the last moment to 
test and find out there are architecture specific issues.


Release planning

The schedule was becoming too complex as there are two sets of migrations 
to testing: an initial one for current state and a final one with fixes 
and translation updates. I have therefore split it into two separate and 
partially overlapping schedules.
It is also somewhat optimistic, so some slippage is likely. If there is 
slippage, is is likely to be a full week. If we switch to 2.6.18 before 
RC1, that will also likely cause a weeks delay.

I have not planned very long periods for testing. I'd rather use RC1 
itself for extensive testing and fix remaining issues in RC2.

INITIAL UPLOAD
--
NowString freeze; soft freeze for commits, bug fixing OK
16Oct  Start migrating current udebs to testing
16-22 Oct  Architecture tests based on daily images; fix where needed !!!
20/21 Oct  First upload of debian-installer
21/22 Oct  Implement necessary changes in debian-cd
25Oct  Weekly full CD build for new installer
26-29 Oct  Testing and fixes for full CDs

FINAL UPLOAD

22Oct  End of string freeze; full freeze for udebs
23Oct  Upload all udebs with translation updates or pending changes
25/26 Oct  Most udebs should have migrated to testing
26Oct  Final build and upload of d-i
27Oct  Switch daily links to etch_d-i
27-30 Oct  Final testing using daily images
30Oct  Weekly full CD build
 1- 4 Nov  Further testing
 1- 4 Nov  Preparation of release notes, errata, etc.
 5Nov  Migration of d-i to testing
 3/ 4 Nov  CD builds
 5Nov  Release

P.S. I have accepted an invitation to participate in a workshop to develop 
a customized installer/distribution in Bhutan (thanks to Christian).
I will be gone from 5-22 November, but will still be able to work on 
release issues part-time while there.

That is expected as the installer has not yet switched to 2.6.18. At this 
time it is uncertain when exactly we will do so, but it should certainly 
be within the next month.
Suggest you keep your eyes open for announcements.

When do you wish me to update localechooser (which may include
de-activated languages)?


The fix re-implementing /etc/environment has been successfully tested
today and it works. Opening a gdm session on the installed system
gives a localized environment.

We can do that at the last moment. I'd suggest waiting until the end of 
the string freeze and then make final decision on which translations 
should be deactivated.

Just as a general note for others: the deactivation is only for the 
official Etch release; the currently too incomplete/outdated translations 
will likely be activated again for post-Etch daily images after the 
release.

Comments/Problems:

Network Hardware, my motherboard comes in two models, one has both the NV 
Marvell onboard GB lan and the Broadcom GB lan, and one model (the one I 
have) has only the NV lan.  The installer "picks up" a non-existent second 
lan on my motherboard, and links it to "eth0."  I knew enough to choose 
"eth1," but I am concerned that more novice Debian users might have problems 
here.

I maintain several computers in two homes, so I keep a mirror of the debian 
mirror at MIT.edu as a filesystem and copy that from computer to computer, 
then I install from the filesystem.  I find this practice saves MIT.edu 
bandwidth (I only update one copy) and saves me time (a disk partition is 
faster that a DSL modem.)  I was very upset that there was no way to install 
from the file system, or at least there was no obvious way of doing it (I am 
discussing a filesystem that I installed via a boot-cd to a large partition 
before installing debian on the same disk.)  Looks like I could access an 
intranet lan to do this, but I do not have one set up.  Being able to do this 
would be a great wishlist item for people responsible for multiple PC's.

Thank You

I have just uploaded a new version that will look at the LANG envvar first
if /etc/default/locale is present. I have focused my testings in making sure
the logic works, but did not check the actual d-i code, although I suppose
LANG is set to the desired value as well as written to
(/target)/etc/default/locale. No alias substitution is attempted.

I do not think this is applicable to current d-i, but when testing upgrades
from woody, I once installed the new dict-common compliant packages in a
chroot with a bootstrapped woody system with no previous ispell/wordlist
stuff there, and I was prompted for each new installed dict/wordlist. But
for this bootstrapped woody system the reason was that apt-utils was not
included in the initial stuff, so preconfiguration was not possible. 

However, when I tried a d-i installation, things worked for me, so I do not
expect that to be the reason.

Bug#339352: Reopen and block 339352

[Frans Pop]

reopen 339352
block 339352 by 383220
thanks

We have worked around this issue by replacing CapsShift by Shift in the 
fr-latin9 keymap file on the fly.

Leaving the report open to await a final fix of #339352. At that time the 
workaround in rootskel-gtk (S63fr-latin9-fix) should be reverted.

Re: Verification of installation-guide-i386 docs regarding alternative installation method

Yes, a review of this section would be welcome. It has been updated a few
times in the past year based on reports received.

Please make sure you use the most recent version of the manual to base
your review on. This can be found at:
http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/

Please file your findings as a bug report against the package
installation-guide.


Ok then. I'll start with this:

 http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/apds03.html

and see where it is going to lead me. Probably a typical installation off the
official installation CD/DVD would be necessary as well, to compare the final
outcome of both methods. I will post my results as soon as I get them :)

Thanks,
Wiktor

Hmmm...

The daily images directory  is empty and seems to have  
been that way since October 9th.

So, October 23rd I guess.

I need this to have a sure deadline for a last update to iso-codes
(whose translations are used to build localechooser) which I need to
coordinate with Tobias Toedter (the main maintainer of iso-codes who's
not a DD and needs me, or Alastair, to upload it when ready).

Re: Dictionaries-common prompts users FIVE times during a default French desktop install

And I have to mention that.it did not happen anymore 2 days ago
when I re-tested a full desktop install in French...

Really strange. 2 weeks after, I can't really see what was special in
the install I ranor what has changed in the meantime (the new
dictionaries-common uploaded yesterday, or today, does not count as I
was installing testing).

I propose to keep an eye opened on the issue but consider it as
solved.
