Fair enough, thank you. I copied all of apt-setup's udeb into localudebs and included them, so cdrom-detect got pulled in. Can I randomly add non-initrd udebs to an image? Somehow bootstrapping fails if I include apt-setup-udeb and works if I pull it from localudebs... (IIRC it should come after bootstrap-base.)

armhf missing on http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
Hi, armhf is completly missing on http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ while eg http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-armhf/current/images/ does exist, just like the rest.

Bug#674894: preseeding: Partitions are not aligned when forcing GPT
Package: partman-auto Version: 101 Severity: normal Tags: d-i Hello, partman-auto doesn't seem to align the partitions when gpt is forced with the option "d-i partman-partitioning/default_label string gpt". When I use the default, msdos is chosen and everything is aligned correctly. I've tried to change the value of partman-auto/alignment but without any improvements.

This change is needed to add the armhf link in the arch list: -amd64\narmel\nhppa\nkfreebsd-i386\nkfreebsd-amd64\ni386\nia64\nmips\nmipsel\npowerpc\nsparc\ns390\nsource +amd64\narmel\narmhf\nhppa\nkfreebsd-i386\nkfreebsd-amd64\ni386\nia64\nmips\nmipsel\npowerpc\nsparc\ns390\nsource But before doing it, I'd like to have the ack from debian-boot and -cd people.

Ok, my guess is this: apt-setup-udeb depends on installed-base which is provided by live-installer, which is pulled into the initrd by apt during the installer creation. base-installer is also pulled in, but live-installer somehow takes precedence (is that possible?). Indeed both are missing from the manifest if I don't include apt-setup-udeb. Attached is a screenshot with the log of live-installer failing. How can I get around this issue?

Alpha 1 installer: netboot ISO doesn't work from USB
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 Hi, I tried the Wheezy Alpha 1 netboot installer [1]. I burned the .iso onto a USB drive and tried to boot from USB. The boot worked, but the installer gave the error message in [2]. Quoted here for reference: " The CD-ROM does not seem to contain a valid 'Release' file, or that the file could not be read correctly. You may try to repeat CD-ROM detection, but even if it does not succeed the second time, you may experience problems later in the installation." It looks like it is scanning for my actual CD Drive, rather than knowing that the installation should happen from USB itself. Is this expected ? I can provide more info if needed. Some specs: * Lenovo, core i3 (64-bit), 4 GB RAM * Optiarc DVD RW AD-7585H Rev:K822 * JetFlash 1GB USB used for booting PS: Please keep me in cc, as I'm not subscribed to the list.

s390-netdevice: upload?
Is anyone in the D-I team in position to build and upload a new version of the s390-netdevice package. That will update a few translations which I would like to see updated. I have to admit that I'm not sure how to do this myself... I indeed never used a porter machine to build packages and I don't even known if that's possible..:-) -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Apart from that it can be built on the porter box. Kind regards Philipp Kern signature.asc Description: Digital signature
