Bug#774926: debian-installer: please default to grub-ieee1275 on powerpc instead of yaboot

2015-01-09 Thread Mathieu Malaterre
Package: debian-installer
Severity: wishlist

grub-ieee1275 is a powerful and effective bootloader for powerpc
machines.  It is significantly more flexible at runtime than yaboot, and
provides a user experience more roughly comparable with installs on i386
and amd64 machines.

Please have debian-installer on powerpc default to grub-ieee1275
instead of yaboot, not only in expert mode but also default mode.

See #664128

yaboot is pretty much dead upstream (last release is from 2011) and it
is unusable on some arches or setup (#719479, #495930, #697813,
#322540).

Thanks

Hi!

As part of the “reproducible builds” project [1], we have identified
that libdebian-installer writes the current date and time in the
documentation generated by Doxygen. This prevents libdebian-installer to
be built reproducibly.

The attached patch tells Doxygen to skip writing timestamps in its
output. libdebian-installer build process can then be reproduced just
fine.

It needs a microcode for the Ethernet controller. It can't download it without 
Ethernet. :-(

I had to film the screen and then push the  "pause" button as often as possible

Comments/Problems:

USB booted fine and I used the 1st default "Installation" option (not the graphical 
installation - why is there a choice btw?). Anyway, it didn't detect any WiFi names and asked me to 
enter one, which I did.  I know for sure my network is called "GlebeCottage" and I know 
for sure the password. But it couldn't connect. It is WPA2 so I selected the correct option but I 
don't see why those options were there.  I'll reboot and try the graphical install next. I got the 
impression you were quite keen to get feedback so I filled in this form.
