Bug#774497: no sound on macmini G4 on wheezy

2015-01-03 Thread Mathieu Malaterre
Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

[I am not familiar with how d-i works, so I reported the bug to d-i
package directly, feel free to re-assign if needed]

This is an attempt to fix an old bug with d-i on Mac Mini G4.
debian-installer should not blacklist snd_aoa, since it prevent user
from having sound working.

[...]
$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local.conf
# Local module settings
# Created by the Debian installer

blacklist snd-aoa-codec-tas
blacklist snd-aoa-fabric-layout
blacklist snd-aoa-i2sbus

Bug#418519: Reason for having raw disk as physical volume

I would think that having a partition on sda flagged bootable might
be necesary at least on systems.  Many systems over the years have had
BIOS/firmware issues that insisted things had to look a certain way to
be bootable even if that wasn't officially a requirement.  After all
that's how microsoft OSs were always installed, so making assumptions
was often considered valid since it always worked when tested.

So certainly not required, but might be safer.

Also there has to be somewhere to install the bootloader, and blockmapping
into the filesystem is a very bad idea, so having some space set aside
for the boot loader is a good idea (which often ends up being the unused
space of the disk before the 1st partition when doing 1MB alignment of
partition starts).  With EFI you simply have a dedicated mandetory
partition to store the boot loader, but of course then you must also
have another partition for /boot in that case, since /boot has to be a
unix style filesystem, and the EFI boot partition has to be FAT (as far
as I know).

Uhm, yes, of course. Bootloader is just before /dev/sda1 partition, which may 
be /boot or a dummy/unused.

Everything in /dev/sda raid volume is "as old school and bootable as should be". Meanwhile /dev/sdb could be advanced, 
flexible LVM stuff.

Dear Maintainer,

I tried the b1 netinst ISO (debian-jessie-DI-b1-amd64-netinst.iso, MD5 
8a386a16ab2939e00bfd5efa27007216.)
The installer came up normally but the disk scan hung. This might be due to 
multiple btrfs filesystems or a bcache partition.

Helo,

Any news? Debian 7.7 is still affected.

This is all weird. 

CtrlL_Lock doesn't turn on the led but works fine for all Polish
diacritics.

Caps_Lock turns on led on the led but only Ó is correctly
capitalised.

Yes, I know.  This is still being discussed upstream on linux-kernel,
see the "INPUT: Route keyboard LEDs through the generic LEDs layer"
thread.

(and please keep the subject of the bug report in replies, I don't know
anybody who knows bug # by heart :))

Bug#774525: installation-reports: Problem formating entire disk to ext4.

2015-01-03 Thread Marek Zelem
Package: installation-reports
Severity: important

When attempting to format entire disk (LOOP partition type) to ext4 format
process hangs at 30% or so.
I figured out that it runs mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda which prompts whether I realy
want to format entire disk.

Solution to this problem is to add option "-F" to mkfs.
I did it by modifying file /lib/partman/commit.d/50format_ext3 line starting
with "mkfs.$filesystem $device ..." to "mkfs.$filesystem -F $device ..."
My fix worked.

Isn't Mirrors.masterlist generated at build time? So this bug would
indeed be useless, assuming that we rebuild choose-mirror and the
official mirror list is updated to drop cdn.debian.net

Or am I missing something?

Severity: normal

http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/jessie_di_alpha_1/amd64/iso-cd/debian-jessie-DI-a1-amd64-netinst.iso

I just downloaded the Debian installer from the above URL and installed to
a BTRFS root filesystem on a partition that previously had BTRFS.  It aborted
and on virtual console 4 had the following messages:

partman: /dev/sda2 appears to contain an existing filesystem (btrfs).
partman: Error: Use the -f option to force overwrite.

I opened a shell and ran "cat /dev/zero > /dev/sda2" and after overwriting
the start of that partition I used the installer to successfully complete
that stage.

As the Debian installer had already asked me if I wanted to format the
partition I think it should either have used the -f option by default.
