Most support for Efika MX and SB is there, just flash-kernel/experimental yet does not work. Adding i.MX53 QSB LOCO board is pending too. > What needs to be done to support the beagleboard series in armhf d-i? You need to add omap support to the debian-installer infrastructure. It is already half supported, it is probably just missing machine specific bits. -- Héctor Orón -.. . -... .. .- -. -.. . ...- . .-.. --- .--. . .-. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

d-i: what is it doing?
Hi all, My apologies if this has been answered before, but I couldn't find a definitive answer in the archives. I am PXE installing Ubuntu 10.04 to a VMware guest, which uses the Debian installer. The install will run to termination, but there is a strange 'pause' in the middle. This pause seems to last for approximately 8 minutes, where the virtual CPU is running at 100% looking at the performance, but nothing is displayed on the text installer UI. The F4 console shows "net-retriever: Good signature from "Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key " Having just written this mail - I am now guessing that the installer is now verifiying signatures or something, but it hasn't really downloaded too much by this point so I would have hoped it wouldn't take 8 minutes. Is there something more than DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 that I can use to see what is happening and if I can ameliorate the "delay" in any way. I have tried adding virtual CPUs and additional to see if that helps in any way, but apparently it doesn't. The local disk has not been mounted so I can't see anything being written to that. While I'm asking - is there any way to access the preseed file from a local [hard] disk? I currently have the kernel and initial ramdisk on a local partition and bootloaded by syslinux, but I am reading the preseed from an HTTP server. I would like to able to read it from the local hard disk, but I have no idea how to (if it is possible at all). I guess I could always expand and rebuild the initrd if necessary!? Thanks for any advice anyone can give me, Regards, Carl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#659360: debootstrap cannot build Ubuntu Edgy or earlier
Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.37 debootstrap cannot install Ubuntu Edgy or Ubuntu Breezy. It fails with: I: Retrieving Release E: Invalid Release file, no entry for main/binary-i386/Packages The edgy and breezy scripts need the same fix as was applied for bug #627365 to fix Debian Sarge - adding 'force_md5' gets them building again. The same change is required for dapper and warty as well (feisty and onwards do not seem to need this, from some quick testing with debootstrap locally). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
