Package: debian-installer-utils
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-ker...@lists.debian.org

(CCing debian-kernel just FYI, since I don't think this can/should be
fixed with a kernel change, likewise filing against
debian-installer-utils and not the kernel even though a kernel change
introduced the breakage)

A recent change to the kernel[0] (from v3.15 onwards) has changed the
way the kernel handles its command line, such that it now ignores
anything passed after a "--" marker. This has broken d-i's own use of
that marker which was to separate options intended for the installer
only (before the marker) from those which are intended to be both
consumed by the d-i kernel and propagated to the final installation
(after the marker, returned by the user-params utility).

It used to be that you could do:
vmlinuz some/preseed=value -- console=ttyFOO
which would have the dual affect of having the kernel console (and hence
installer UI) run on ttyFOO and also, via grub-installer's use of
user-params, propagate the console=ttyFOO into the final grub config
(similarly for other bootloaders).

With the kernel change this no longer works -- the kernel doesn't put
its console on ttyFOO since it stops parsing at the --. So you get
silence on boot.

To get the old behaviour you need
vmlinuz some/preseed=value console=ttyFOO -- console=ttyFOO
which is pretty tedious.

Just using
vmlinuz some/preseed=value console=ttyFOO
doesn't propagate the console=ttyFOO to the installed system.

Since the kernel change was related to the "systemd abusing kernel
cmdline" debacle I'm not overly keen on raising this upstream and I
don't think that changing the kernel in a way which diverges from
upstream would not be the right approach here.

I don't know how widely used/documented/Supported this ability was, but
I thought e.g. the pxe and isolinux cfgs made use of it.

Not sure what we can do about this. Perhaps choose another separator
("=="?) and make user-params support both?

Ian.

I had actually fixed it in the latest upload, closing the bug.

Re: Bug#776101: aptitude: hangs forever on 'setting up console-setup (1.116)'

Control: reassign -1 console-setup 0.116

You mean "running 'aptitude update' followed by 'aptitude upgrade'",
don't you?

How long did you approximately wait?

This output is not from aptitude but either from dpkg or ucf.

> Setting up console-setup (1.116) ...

This is output from dpkg, announcing that it will now run
console-setup's postinst script.

> 'top' shows aptitude taking about 3-4% CPU but it is stuck.

Because aptitude is probably not the one which is working at that
time. The one which should do something is either a postinst script
from some to-be-installed package or some trigger. But dpkg would have
announce triggers. As well as aptitude is mentioning that it's
re-reading it's database.

Did top show any other child process of aptitude?

Ok.

Sure, because it doesn't leave aptitude a chance to do so. IMHO
expected behaviour.

Dito.

This sounds as if the aptitude including its children processes were
killed while debconf tried to ask you a question or -- more likely --
generate a config file.

I'm quite sure this is no issue with aptitude at all but likely with
the postinst script of a to-be-installed package. I currently assume
it's console-setup, also because it's a heavy debconf user. Hence
reassigning.

Regards, Axel

Bug#773452: killing udhcp helps

2015-01-23 Thread Adam Borowski
> hang in netcfg on IPv6-only

At that time, if you switch to a console (Ctrl-Alt-F2) and kill udhcp, the
installer happily continues.  Not even an error message is given (about
udhcp's demise), and the installed system is configured for IPv6-only, as
expected.
