Comments/Problems:

Booted fine, continued through the entire install process 100% as normal until
the partitioner.

Chose manual partitioning from the menu.

Walked through the partitioning process as normal, and quickly discovered that
it wasn't doing as it was told.

/dev/sda (2.1GB disk)- Created 100mb /boot ext2 partition
   Created 100mb swap partition
   Attempted to create remaining 1.9GB partition - ended up with ~700KB.

Similar story for /dev/sdb (same size).


Did a little poking around with the partition tools in the shell during the
standard install.

Discovered that the disklabel was initially written to the disk with the
correct geometry, but after the creation of the first partition on the disk,
the disklabel now indicates a much smaller disk with significantly different
geometry. Did not attempt to write to disk - it would have been pointless
anyway because the effective usable size of the disk was ~200MB.

Had to partition the disks manually from expert mode's shell using parted
directly. After rewriting the disklabel, I was able to partition the drive
properly.

Rebooted out of expert mode (No real reason), reloaded in standard mode, ran
through again, only using the partitioning menu to assign the mountpoints and
filesystems. Everything worked as expected from that point forward.

This system will be getting new drives in the next week or so, at which point
I'll be able to use it to reproduce and further debug this problem if needed.

Managed it after all with ffmpeg after creating a chroot with d-multimedia 
packages (installing them on my stable system broke AVI playback in vlc).

I'm currently uploading my variant in two versions: one of 4:33 minutes 
and that's 1/3 slower at 6:50. They are identical except for the speed 
(size is the same: 179MB). I personally prefer the second one.

After the upload is complete, they should be available as:
- http://people.debian.org/~fjp/tmp/d-i/d-i_swarm_4m.avi
- http://people.debian.org/~fjp/tmp/d-i/d-i_swarm_6m.avi

It's not as spectacular as Joey's version, but shows much more detail.
For some reason they display a lot brighter on the LVD screen of my laptop 
than on the external CRT monitor.

I'll leave them up for a month or so.

Enjoy,
FJP

Bug#528224: fixed

2009-05-16 Thread Debian Archive Maintenance
We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:

etch-support |   0.04 | source, all

Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it).  Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive (ftp-master.debian.org) and will not propagate to any
mirrors (ftp.debian.org included) until the next cron.daily run at the
earliest.

Packages are never removed from testing by hand.  Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems.

Bugs which have been reported against this package are not automatically
removed from the Bug Tracking System.  Please check all open bugs and
close them or re-assign them to another package if the removed package
was superseded by another one.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 528...@bugs.debian.org.

The full log for this bug can be viewed at http://bugs.debian.org/528224

a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing

First of all: many thanks for the great response to this RFH!

Progress on the review of the archive has been huge. Since the start over 
11,000 nominations as spam have been submitted and about 3400 reviews 
have been done. This has already resulted in 676 spams being removed from 
the archive and for this week another 650 posts are waiting for review.

We now have a solid team working on this and if we keep this up it looks 
that in 4 or 5 weeks we can have d-boot virtually clean of spam for 2006 
and later.

Current status can be seen on:
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/SpamClean

Additional help to scan the archive and nominate posts is always welcome.

Cheers,

Hi Nvidia!

I downloaded what I supposed is your latest driver package for my Nvidia
video card. I followed the instructions and the process started. However
if stopped with the message that it was looking for the system utility
"ld".

I couldn't find "ld" on the machine and I don't know where to download
it either. It isn't in synaptic.

The machine is an Intel 810 series, the graffics board, of course, is
Nvidia. The OS is Debian 5.

Uh?

That's becoming less and less clear.

Your original bug report pointed to the root partition being filled at
some moment and causing the package install failures.

Then, you mention that cleaning out the root partition solved the
problem.

Packages often install stuff in /.at least files in /etc. Here you
seem to mention snort which, for instance, copies a few files in /etc.

So, well, what's currently said is "if the root partition is full,
then packages that install files in the root partition fail to
install". I would say this is expected..:-)

So, the only "bug" one could see is the suggestion of making the root
partition big enough to accomodate further changes by the local
admin. This is actually what I thought you were suggesting: that the
root partition should be at least able to accomodate with 2 kernel
flavours as that often happens in a machine's life.

That, I would agree with and this is why I finally didn't close the
bug and reassigned it to partman-auto.

However, you now mention that you actually had *three* living kernel
flavours in a 260MB partition. I would say it is then expected that
the partition fills in and makes packages intallation fail.

So, pretty much normal behaviour here and not really something we can
do much about: reserving more space for the root partition because
sometimes users might want to install 3 kernel flavours at the same
time would be kind of a waste. So, I would say it is then up to the
local admin to not accept the proposed defaults for / when doing
autopartitioning with a separated /usr, /var and /home if (s)he plans
to install many packages that could fill up /

So, I consider closing this bug again.

Re: Request for help - cleaning spam from the debian-boot mailing list archive

Quoting Frans Pop (elen...@planet.nl):

Done this morning. No ham found, only Spam.

I found out that I inadvertently left a few posts rated as "Unsure"
which i apparently not really easy to come back on once you've clicked
"Send and Continue". That happens because my fast "Click, Page Down"
repetitions on the page sometimes fails (the click does not change the
button status to "Spam". So, my reviews for this week probably have a
few (less than 10) posts erroneously rated as "Unsure" while
everything was spam, unboubtfully.

I wish we would have as many people working on patches to D-I..:-)



A few enhancements I would propose to listmasters (or anyone behind
the review tool):

- have a display mode for the list archives where messages already
"nominated" would be shown in a different way (maybe sorting messages
by number of spam nominations?). That would help those people who
review archives after 1 or 2 people already did it to spot possible
spam more easily

- allow reviewing more than 10 nominated posts at a time. This is
probably what slows me down the most when reviewing. For the record,
this morning, I spent about 40 minutes reviewing 550 nominated posts.

- allow coming back on messages one once rated as "Unsure"

Finally, once we've done 2006-2009, I think we should post something
in http://wiki.debian.org/DeveloperNews. I don't know whether other
people are doing such reviews but the method you (Frans) proposed and
which we nos use could indeed bring emulation in other lists.

Hmmm, all these are marked done because #520711 was closed on Apr 26th
after some confirmation that nobody experienced it anymore. But, at
that time, it wasn't clear that the bug was still here but only
visible when installing squeeze with the lenny installer.

That was apparently wrong: from #528929, the lenny installer still
can't install squeeze.

Re-opening.

It seems that this issue should get some priority. As we go over the
release goals list during meetings, I'll propose to include the fix
for #517231 in release goals for D-I.

2009-05-16 Thread Christian Perrier
Quoting Pete Theisen (petethei...@verizon.net):

> Configure network:  [E] sees dsl router, connects to web but not local net

That's unclear. Did the install use the network and, if so, did it
work.

If it did, then the problem, if there's one, is elsewhere and not in
the installer itself.

 ???

Did the installer set a password for root and did it create a normal
user. If it did, then there is no problem in the installer itself.

> Install tasks:  [E] a little clunky

 ???

> Install boot loader:[E] can't boot to non-x

.../...

Advanced use of nVidia cards is much out of the scope of the installer
and more something that has to do with X packages. Please note that
nVidia is (IIRC, I'm not that much in that hardware business) not
known for its friendlyness to provide open source drivers. For
advanced features, you might then need to get their non free drivers.

Most problems you describe do not pertain to the installer itself,
apparently, but more seem to be installation tuning, after the
install. In such cases, we often have no other option than closing the
bug report, except when there is a clear package which we can reassign
the bug to. But, for this, problems have to be made clear before...
