That's OK, but it needs to be documented in the installation manual.

Hi,

i think this would be the best solution because now the dependency to gdm3 
pulls in metacity
as an dependency which most users don't want to install because lxde depend on

Bug#686606: debian-installer: Instalation freezes when used installer on wheeze hd-media and "Extended" partition is present

2012-09-03 Thread Jan Belohoubek
Package: debian-installer
Version: wheeze
Severity: normal

I installed Debian wheeze (amd64) from flash disk with these partitions
(fdisk):

/dev/sdb1   *   1   2   16033+  14  Hidden FAT16 <32M
/dev/sdb2   3   6   32130b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sdb3   7 245 1919767+   5  Extended
/dev/sdb5   7  87  650601b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sdb6  88 172  682731b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sdb7 173 176   32098+   b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sdb8 177 180   32098+  83  Linux
/dev/sdb9 181 184   32098+  83  Linux
/dev/sdb10185 188   32098+  83  Linux
/dev/sdb11189 192   32098+  83  Linux
/dev/sdb12193 196   32098+  83  Linux
/dev/sdb13197 245  393561b  W95 FAT32

On sdb6 there is hd-media and iso image.

After few steps Installer (I'm using text installer) started to search for iso
images on all partitions...Installler succefully checked few partitions but
then freezed on sdb3 (Extended partition).
On another console I ran ps and I got processlist including information about
running mount process.
Mount was in R ("running") state and installer was blocked for many minutes
(installer last message was like "processing sdb3") - mounting Extended partion
blocks the installer (after few minutes I interrupted installation process).

I repeated this process with amd64 Debian squeeze hd-media  (same steps) and I
found no problems. This error is probably new in wheeze...

Bug#683329: flash-kernel: Toshiba AC100 support broken [fix included]

2012-09-03 Thread Vincent Zweije
Package: flash-kernel
Version: 3.2
Followup-For: Bug #683329

Dear Maintainer,

This is probably the same bug, although the original report contains
close to zero information...

Trying to flash a new kernel failed - flash-kernel exits early because
some shell command returned an error code. I have tracked this down to
faulty boot device detection.

This little loop from /usr/share/flash-kernel/functions around line 468
does the detection:

for p in "$android_boot_device"*[0-9]; do
abootimg="$(LC_ALL=C abootimg -i "$p" 2>/dev/null)"
image_size="$(abootimg_get_image_size "$abootimg")"
if [ -n "$image_size" ] &&
[ "$image_size" -gt "$largest_size" ]; then
part="$p"
fi
done

The assignment to abootimg contains a call to abootimg -i "$p". This
call fails when the glob pattern on the line above returns a block device
that is not an android boot image. Since the script is executed with -e,
this aborts the script.

Adding a "|| :" after the command fixes the problem thus:

for p in "$android_boot_device"*[0-9]; do
abootimg="$(LC_ALL=C abootimg -i "$p" 2>/dev/null || : 
)"
image_size="$(abootimg_get_image_size "$abootimg")"
if [ -n "$image_size" ] &&
[ "$image_size" -gt "$largest_size" ]; then
part="$p"
fi
done

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
Latest update introduces direct dependency to gdm3, and loads of gnome-related 
libs.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
N/A
   * What was the outcome of this action?
Unwanted Gnome libraries installed on a lightweight environment.
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
Any login manager should satisfy the need for one, not only gdm3.

Just speaking for myself. I would very much appreciate this work! I

This is a duplicate of #683345, fixed in the upload of tasksel 3.13

If it helps I can reinstall wheezy from scratch. Just Let me know which

No, that's not needed. Your information seems enough to confirm that
we need the fuse module in the installer kernel and have it loaded in
os-prober prior to OS tests. Thanks for your help.

I'm therefore cloning this bug so that kernel maintainers add the fuse
module to installer kernel packages and we modify os-prober (probably
os-probes/common/50mounted-tests) to load this module beforecalling
grub-mount (not sure about the latter).
