Hi,

I've tried this yesterday (even append DEBCONF_PRIORITY=low on the ppc
bootloader) but it always tells me that some modules are missing to
support my hardware, and that included NCR/Symbios logic module.

bf-ut-sources and debian-installer

2004-03-30 Thread Nicolas Sabouret
Hi,

I'm currently maintaining (cough) bf-utf-source which contains utf-8 
fonts that where used for international versions of boot-floppies.
Is this package used by d-i ? If not, I intend to remove it from ftp.d.o 
and, eventually, turn it into a font package.

Nico.

lilo access difficult because expert mode expects things to be done in order (Grub first...). I though i managed to get it (apparently it has to use devfs nomenclature, which i'm not familiar with), bot nothing in place, not even a lilo.conf.

reboot and mount/chroot under knoppix proved there was no lilo, tried to use lilo's simple example conf file, changed compact to lba32, used hda2 as boot and hda6 as root, boot sector on hda2.

used bootpart (as disk's main bootloader), but failed.

apparently lba48 support is needed in order to boot a partition further than ~120 gb, maybe neither bootpart nor lilo know how to do that.

Other than that boot loader issue, which may be me of my own doing (partitions too far away in the disk), the installer looks very close to be ready.

Would that qualify as a bug and should i submit it to the appropriate email address, or is it me trying to do something stupid ?

Any suggestion ?

OK, so it finally worked, it just takes an awfuly long time, it says so 
on the console, but I wasn't expecting it to be that long... Apparently 
it is linked to the lack of floppy drive in my system.

That floppy drive thing On the first choice of hardware detection, I 
unchecked the floppy part. But then later on during the intall (at least 
in expert mode) it just inserts the module without asking...and makes 
grub even longer...

lilo access difficult because expert mode expects things to be done in 
order (Grub first...). I though i managed to get it (apparently it has 
to use devfs nomenclature, which i'm not familiar with), bot nothing 
in place, not even a lilo.conf.


That thing still stands. devfs is used, but without /dev/hdX aliases, so 
lilo is confused.


reboot and mount/chroot under knoppix proved there was no lilo, tried 
to use lilo's simple example conf file, changed compact to lba32, used 
hda2 as boot and hda6 as root, boot sector on hda2.

apparently lba48 support is needed in order to boot a partition 
further than ~120 gb, maybe neither bootpart nor lilo know how to do 
that.


I moved the /boot to the begining of the disk, it must have helped too.

This is fixed in the daily builds, grub-installer will not probe for a
floppy drive by default.
 

Nice.

I don't know what would have loaded the floppy module behind your back
in expert mode.
 

I had the error messages on the consoles, so they must have been due to 
Grub then.

Please excuse my confusion.

What about the lilo/devfs stuff?

Bug#770612: unblock: btrfs-tools/3.17-1.1

2014-11-22 Thread Nicolas Dandrimont
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package btrfs-tools

The upload backports two patches from the upstream 3.17.1 branch, fixing
RC bug #768746 (merged with #769684).

That upload allows packages depending on libbtrfs0 (such as snapper) to build
again.

X-D-CC'ing -boot@ as btrfs-tools produces a udeb, and is currently block-udeb'd.

Guessing the right hint would be:

unblock-udeb btrfs-tools/3.17-1.1

Thanks!

0 > .propertie ibm,fw-xof, unknown word
 ok
0 > .properties
clock-frequency 04f790d5
device_type chrp

You said you need more information, what kind of information ? It's a
7043-150, 1 Go RAM, 9.1 Go hard drive, floopy and cdrom drives. Aix is
installed but doesn't boot for the moment because of a NIS problem.

Thanks

Regards

Nicolas

Hi,

Here is some logs extract

Ok, since now we know that your box is a chrp one, we can tell a bit more
about this :

This is expected, since you are trying to boot a prep kernel on a chrp box.

Ok, claim is used in the bootloader. I don't really know if this is happening
while the OF is claiming space for the kernel (i somehow don't think so,
because it has already loaded it somewhere), or if the actual kernel
boot-loader is trying to claim in the arch/ppc/boot/openfirmware/main.c.

This should have helped. I naturally have no idea how the IBM OF is set out,
where the actual OF code is located, and what the free space is. Could you try
other load-base entries ? 

And BTW, how much memory you have on that box anyway ? 

Also, could provide the output of powerpc/netboot/2.4/vmlinuz-chrp.initrd as
well, and try to boot a standalone (without initrd) 2.6 kernel, by installing
kernel-image-2.6.8-powerpc, and running
  mkvmlinuz -n -o /tftpboot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-powerpc -k /boot/vmlinux-2.6.8-powerpc
and then booting the resulting kernel. You would need mkvmlinuz version 9 or
higher.
Friendly,
Sven Luther

For the mkvmlinuz, I've found an old 7043-140 (Prep box, Ram 768 Mo, 2 
go hd) and tried to install Debian as it's easier I think, but I got 
kernel panic after netbooting the DI vmlinuz-prep.initrd. After some 
reading, I need to have 512 Mo max for RAM (if more are present, memory 
maps change and the prep loader doesn't work), so I remove some RAM and 
now it boots. I can configure the keyboard but it doesn't see my 
hardisk. I'm connected with minicom so it seems I can't switch to 
another virtual console to see any message. Do you have any idea for the 
non detection of my scsi hardisk and card ?

Back to my 7043-150. My box have 1 Go of RAM, so perhaps, I'm having the 
same problem. Tomorrow I'll downgrade it to 256 Mo and try the last DI 
build to see if I've the same CLAIM failed. If this doesn't work, I'll 
try to install debian on my 7043-140 and use the mkvmlinux tip

I leave my box with only 256 Mo but I always have the CLAIM failed
problem. So, as I've no more idea about this probleme, I'll wait your new
upload of kernel 2.6.8-5 with scsi transport to install my 7043-140 and

I grab the today build but like the yesterday, it doesn't detect my scsi
card. I open a shell, type modprobe sd_mod, retry detect hardware and it
complains about missing modules like ncr symbios logix, ide and usb stuff
:/ I use the
http://people.debian.org/~luther/debian-installer/daily-powerpc-built/2004-09-03/powerpc/netboot/vmlinuz-prep.initrd

Here is a cat /proc/pci extract:

SCSI storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic 53c825 (rev 19).
  IRQ 23.

Bug#793941: bnx2 issue with onboard IPMI

2018-01-24 Thread Cyprien Nicolas
Hello all,

We are still suffering from this issue, with jessie and stretch netinst
kernels and bnx2 firmware.

No actual news from upstream so far (netdev thread here [1]).

So I try to use either the boot cmdline `interface=` parameter or the
preseed based `netcfg/choose_interface` directive to force the system to
use the secondary interface, without success.

Using the information of the reporter, I see that the ethdetect script will
call check-missing-firmware on ALL detected interfaces (see lsifaces
function from ethdetect), ignoring any interface setting from cmdline or
preseed.

My current option is to disable the network configuration, then start a
shell when d-i fails reaching any mirror, then manually configure the
network, then proceed with the installation process.
But the installed system has no network configuration, and then is not
reachable (and systemd does not start the ttyS1 console, but that's a
different issue).

I guess making ethdetect complies with the interface parameter (if not set
to auto) is the best solution atm.

Thanks,

1. http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2015/09/09/4 )

retitle 247960 CD cache should be deactivated

Ok, it didn't work because my CD-drive was too old to correctly read a CD-RW. 
I burned the file on a CD-R and it correctly loaded the files.
Nevertheless, I leave this bug open because I think you should deactivate the 
cache in the kernel: Windows correctly handles CD-RW by retrying to read a 
file when it fails. Here it is impossible because files are in the cache (and 
the debian-installer retry option is thus useless...).
Thanks

Bug#248269: md5sum doesn't support '-c' command line option

2004-05-10 Thread Nicolas Bonifas
Package: busybox-cvs
Tags: d-i

md5sum doesn't support '-c' command line option, which makes the 
debian-installer's integrity test fails.
Please refer to bugs #242 and #247959 for further informations.

Bug#246948: Installation report

DMA is enabled on computers where installation succeeds (a Pentium III 733 and 
a Pentium M 1500), but not on the one where it fails.

> Unfortunately, it's not easy to test if the drive would work without DMA

Although the symptoms are very close, I don't think I have the same problem 
since DMA is disabled on my old computer.

Moreover, it wouldn't explain why integrity test fails on all my computers. I 
do really think there is a path problem, or something related.

Thanks,
Nicolas

Bug#246948: Installation report

2004-05-07 Thread Nicolas Bonifas
I have another idea:
I tried to run 'md5sum -c md5sum.txt' from a d-i shell (last time, when 
checking the CD, I did it using the GNU md5sum, on my main computer). Here is 
what I got:

/cdrom # md5sum -c md5sum.txt
md5sum: -c: No such file or directory
c53f3ea0710b9e77049e9187af77baac  md5sum.txt
/cdrom #

I suppose the BusyBox md5sum included on the d-i CD is buggy.

It doesn't explain why my MMX computer can't read libc-udeb, but it maybe 
explains why integrity test fails.

This is not what I see on the directory where I downloaded my files from:
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sarge_d-i/i386/beta4/MD5SUMS
I perhaps badly expressed myself when saying I was using 20040429. I 
downloaded beta4, which was built on 20040429, according to the help at 
beginning of installation. Sorry for that.

So the MD5 sums of my images are ok, but the integrity test still fails 
on ./dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/Release, on both images.
I compare the md5 sum of this file with what is written in md5sum.txt, at the 
root of the CD, and this file is ok. I suppose there is a path problem: I'm 
not absolutely sure about that, but when I run a shell it seems that the 
current directory is '/'
(# export
[...]
export PWD='/'
[...]
)
So ./dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/Release maybe refers 
to /dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/Release instead 
of /cdrom/dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/Release.

./dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/Release is the first file to be checked, 
according to md5sum.txt.

Running md5sum -c md5sum.txt in directory /cdrom succeed for every file on the 
the cdrom except for README.html.

I still have my problem loading libc-udeb on my computer, but it worked on two 
other.

Thanks
Nicolas

Bug#114057: A proposition

2001-10-24 Thread Nicolas SABOURET

Hi again Eduard,

We discussed this problem on -devel-french we have a proposition.

First of all, there is no "fr_PP" problem like the british vs american
one that has been overdiscussed on -devel. On the contrary, the use of
an alias is the reason why there is no problem : french is fr_FR by
default, but other users can change it to be what they want, just by
modifying one single line in one single file.

Second, there exists an ISO norm on the use of ll_CC[@variantion].NORM
(ll=language & CC=country). And (what a piece of luck) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
works for modconf.

The idea we had, that would not make much work for you and that would
satifsy all "french" (whatever it is) users is the following : simply
test wether /etc/locale.alias exists and if it does, try to replace the
value of LANG by its "real" value given in this file. If it does not
exist (which is the cas at initial installation), work with LANG's value
(whivh is fr_FR as far as I understand).

I (and many french user) would be very happy if you could do this. This
would allow us to keep using "french" as an alias and to avoid senseless
fights like the one you saw on -devel between british and american
speakers.

Sorry for this long mail : I tried to give you our point of view.

  Or much better: Use plex86 or bochs.  That'll at least get you the x86 &

  Or.. Is there any reason why dbootstrap can't be run on a running system?

 It's only a 650k tarball that contains 76 640x400 screens shots of as much
of the install as I got through in bochs. I snaped a lot of failed and

  If you can prep the drive in another machine then why not just do the base
install on the other machine? Get the base installed, get it booting, then
move it over to the other(damaged) machine and do whatever you want with the
fresh install.

  Actually, they do, but as a module. Rather than extract the module the
"proper" way I just went through the install past "Install kernel & modules"
on the onboard scsi then copied the cciss.o to a floppy. I was able to then
reboot on the raid card, load the module, and continue on.

  I chroot-ed into my install from the installer and built a new kernel.
Second or third time around I got the kernel right ;)

  Any sign of linux-based tools to mangle the raid setup? Somewhere burried

[MIPSEL] How to bypass the cdrom detection ?

2006-07-06 Thread Nicolas MASSÉ
Hello everybody,

I am currently trying to install a debian (Sarge) on a mipsel device. It is an 
Asus WL-HDD :

http://usa.asus.com/products4.aspx?l1=12&l2=44&l3=0&model=460&modelmenu=1

I installed a minimal distribution in the flash and accessed it through SSH. 
Then, I tried to install a debian using the "debian-31r2-mipsel-netinst" iso.

Here is what I did :
 - I copied the content of the initrd of the debian boot cd on hard disk
=> /mnt/debian
 - I copied the content of the ISO on the hard disk
=> /mnt/debian/cdrom
 - chroot /mnt/debian
 - /usr/bin/debconf-loadtemplate d-i /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.templates
 - echo 2 > /var/lib/lowmem
 - anna-install lowmem
 - export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=newt
 - export MENU=/usr/bin/main-menu
 - /lib/debian-installer/menu

But, the installer allways want to detect the cdrom drive and don't know how 
to bypass the detection.

Maybe someone has advice ? Or maybe, is it possible to install a debian using 
only dpkg (a bit like gentoo in fact) ?

Please CC me, I'm not subscribed.

Thanks

That's exactly what I was searching for ! Thanks. 
The tarball is unpacked, I'm playing with apt-get. 
I hope it will reboot without any problem...

Again, thanks !

I think he's trying to help the team of the debian installer, not
looking for help on his proyect.

Bug#605290: No problem on MacBook Pro with d-i 6.0-b1

2010-11-28 Thread Nicolas Bertolissio
Package: installation-reports

Hello,

I've installed Squeeze on my MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Core2 Duo/2GB/256MB
VRAM/160 GB 5400 rpm with the debian-installer 6.0 beta 1. And all was
fine. I've got a running Squeeze system now.

It's a dual boot with Mac OS X 10.6 with rEFIt. 120 GB for OS X, 8 GB
swap and 340 GB root partition for Debian. I have 4 GB RAM and I
installed kernel 2.6.32-5-bigmem.

Thank you for all your work.

Hi,

just to say that I made a patch in order to get the last version of gtk
working with directfb. This pach is available here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=126611&action=view

Probably not perfect, but at least with this patch GTK is compiling and
running. (I had some graphical artifacts when I test it, but I don't
know if my patch is in cause, and  I'm not filling myself able to solve
it).

I submited this one month ago, but this hasn't been reviewed yet.

Bug#508042: newt frontent have inefficient use of screen real estate (multiselect)

Here are two patches to fix these bugs.
  # 1. cdebconf_loadtemplate.patch
  # 2. cdebconf_newt_need_separate_window.patch

Please find the comments on these patches in the patches themselves.

There is probably still some space that could be saved for select (not
multiselect) because 2 lines are reserved for a button, which is not
displayed if the text and select fits on one window.
(i.e. when show_select_window(obj, q, 1) is called the  button
is not displayed, but some place is reserved for it, as when
show_select_window(obj, q, 0) is called)

I also include the test templates and config I used to test this.
testlong.templates and testlong.config could be dropped in src/test.
When compiled --with-textwrap, debconf produces the expected result for
terminal height from 25 to 40.

Best Regards,

If a description ends with a verbatim block (asis == 1), remove_newlines
adds a newline instead of removing the trailing newline.
This causes the debconf frontend(s?) to display 3 blank lines instead of one
between the long description and the short description.
The end of string must be tested before asis.

This fix the computation and usage of the window's height. If the height
is not computed correctly, the newt frontend may decide to put the input
box and the explanatory text on the same window, but the text will overlap
on the input box, which render the input impossible.

Bug#508042: newt frontent have inefficient use of screen real estate (multiselect)

2009-02-26 Thread Nicolas François
Hello,

I had a look at other cdebconf newt frontend bugs in the BTS and it looks
like the second issue (cdebconf_newt_need_separate_window.patch) is the
same as:
 http://bugs.debian.org/507372
 http://bugs.debian.org/343119

Jérémy provided a patch in 507372, based on the same idea of using
get_full_description().
It was mentioned by Frans that it is incomplete, but fortunately the other
bytes in cdebconf_newt_need_separate_window.patch fix the issue
completely.
(At least I cannot reproduce the bug after trying many different window
height)

Also, as Jérémy, I forgot to free the result of get_full_description() in
my first patch.

So here is an updated version, which free the result and document that the
result of get_full_description shall be freed by the caller.

Best Regards,

I could fix that one too with cdebconf_newt_reduce_space_select.patch
(it needs cdebconf_newt_need_separate_window.patch)

So here are the 3 patches
 * cdebconf_loadtemplate.patch
 * cdebconf_newt_need_separate_window.patch
 * cdebconf_newt_reduce_space_select.patch

This is a bug in newt, and is fixed in the current upstream release.

I could test that the attached newt patch fixes the cdebconf bug.
This is also the current version of the NEWT_FLAG_PASSWORD handling in
entry.c

Comments/Problems:

All ok. Very impressive hardware autodetection, compared to my first
debian install 10 years ago.

Wifi did not work out of the box. This is unavoidable, since the chip
needs a closed-source external firmware and a newer 2.6.28 kernel with
the iwlagn driver.

I had to manually select the intel driver in xorg.conf, VESA was the
default. It is a safe choice for the moment, since the intel driver
(hand-compiled 2.6.28.3 kernel, xf86-video-intel server module 2.3.2)
crashed several times the whole computer using 3D softwares like
oolite or wine-grimfandango.

Yes.

It looks like I assumed there were no Go Back button in those case.

Here is a patch.

I tested it just a little bit. It seems to solve the issue without
re-introducing the previous issue.


If somebody knows how to test it in a daily image, please do (I don't know
how to do this).


If urgent, somebody can commit it and upload.
Otherwise, I will try to test it more this week-end.

Thanks.
I could test the patch on a virtualbox and committed an updated version.

With the patch committed, I could make a complete install without noticing
any glitches in the installer screen.

Comments/Problems:

The installation went fine.
One remark : I want an installation and system in English, but my location
is Japan, so needing do go back and forth between the Language/Location
steps in d-i to achieve this combination was annoying and shouldn't be
required, as language and location are 2 different things.

As for the hardware support, everything seems supported so far,
sound, video, network, wireless and SD card reader. I couldn't test the]
Wimax interface yet.

Only issue: the screen brightness management doesn't work, and it is a
serious problem since the screen brightness level is very high. But this is
a kernel/acpi issue, and will be reported there.

USB keyboard not working on a cinema display/cube

2004-12-27 Thread Nicolas Jungers
hi,
the sarge-powerpc-netinst.iso fail to activate my keyboard when 
connected to the display. It's true of the RC2 version and of the 
daily/powerpc/20041226/ version.

The computer is a Mac Cube with a standard Mac USB Pro keyboard 
connected to a 22" cinema display. If the keyboard is connected to the 
cube, it's then activated.

a lsmod output. May be tricky without keyboard though :) Maybe using

I dunno how to do that on a Mac. What I did was plugin two keyboards, 
one on the cube, the other on the cinema display, and both didn't

Now, I tryed the installer because my system wasn't comming up after a

If you send me instructions I can try to dig further.

second isn't.

- mode install, keyboard in the cube functionnal, I select a keymap, 
the installer hang, the keyboard is still functionning, there is a cat

Bug#1095207: busybox: please enable httpd's proxy feature

Dear Maintainer,

While trying to use busybox httpd's proxy feature, I discovered that it
is not enabled in the Debian build [1].

Is there a reason why it is disabled? Could it be enabled? I find busybox
httpd a really simple and useful tool and would love to be able to use it
as a very basic reverse proxy in some projects.

Bug#930283: task-cinnamon-desktop: metapackage should include gnome-terminal

2019-07-13 Thread Nicolas Braud-Santoni
Control: tag -1 + moreinfo

Hi Leon,

Thanks for your interest in improving tasksel.

The task-cinnamon-desktop package already depends on the package
cinnamon-desktop-environment, which does specify terminal emulators as 
dependencies:

 |Depends: gnome-terminal
  Depends: 
deepin-terminal
eterm
gnome-terminal
kitty
konsole
lilyterm
lxterminal
mate-terminal
mlterm
mlterm-tiny
pterm
qterminal
rxvt-unicode
sakura
stterm
terminator
terminology
termit
tilix
xfce4-terminal
xiterm+thai
xterm

If I'm not mistaken, gnome-terminal should always be prefered, unless another
terminal emulator is already installed.


Could you clarify what you want to achieve, and why it should be changed in
tasksel, rather than in cinnamon-d-e (maintained by the Cinnamon team) ?


Best,

  nicoo

Bug#593105: tasksel: Please add a "Smartphone" task

2019-07-13 Thread Nicolas Braud-Santoni
Control: tag -1 + wontfix

Hi,

Sorry for replying to your bug a decade after you opened it.

Considering that Debian-powered smartphone are currently a very-niche thing,
that support is (AFAIK) currently very poor, and that it's not the role of the
d-i team to make Debian-on-Smartphones happen, I'm tagging this as wontfix.

Feel free to reply to the bug once there's a clear path to support installation
on smartphones and provide a sensible UX.


Best,

  nicoo

Bug#902321: task-desktop: please install fonts-symbola by default

2019-07-13 Thread Nicolas Braud-Santoni
Control: tag -1 + confirmed pending

Hi Adam,

Thanks for reporting this.

I'm adding it, considering that:
1. symbola provides wide coverage of Unicode (not only emojis),
   which makes it a reasonable default to avoid showing “Unicode tofu” to users;
2. it only weights in ~3MB in installed size, which ought to be acceptable for 
the
   target audience of task-desktop.

Best,

Hi Andrek, and thanks for the report.

Could the KDE team confirm that this is still happening, and clarify whether
Apper is intended to be the default package-management app for Debian on KDE?

Yes, removing task-gnome-desktop won't do much if you do not run
`apt autoremove` or somesuch.

Of course, making tasksel run autoremove would be a terrible idea,
since it might remove unrelated packages.

I'm not sure how that can be addressed, TBH.

xserver-xorg-input-libinput should already be pulled in by this dep chain:

   task-xfce-desktop
-> task-desktop
-> xserver-xorg-input-all
-> xserver-xorg-input-libinput

As such, it is unclear anything needs changing in tasksel.


@karthik: Can you confirm that xserver-xorg-input-libinput was installed
  out-of-the-box ?  If so, the bug probably lies with that package.

Yes, the fix does not necessarily belong in tasksel itself.

However, I am not keen to WONTFIX this, as it does point at a general
usability issue in Debian: there is no reasonable way to deal with
uninstalling software pulled in through a task/metapackage.


*Maybe* doing something like uninstalling the package and autoremove only
packages that were made uneeded by that removal would work, but this sounds
like it would need support in apt.  However, this also seems like a much
bigger undertaking than I currently have the energy for.

Retitling and reducing severity.


Do we have a reasonablish way of telling whether a system is “real”
hardware or a virtual machine, and choose whether to install haveged or not
accordingly?

Is it a thing we want to do?

Hi,

Is the dependency of atril on mate-desktop-common necessary?

If not, could you please consider removing it?  This would let
the xfce maintainers ship atril instead of evince in task-xfce-desktop  :)

Regardless of the platform, haveged will put data into random(4) and use
the appropriate ioctl to increase the entropy counter, which is useful in
that it prevents random(4) from “running out” of entropy. [0]


On virtual machines, however, the data that the HAVEGE algorithm produces
is not necessarily unpredictable [1]; hence, we shouldn't install haveged
on those environments.

Moreover, on virtual machines, the host virtualization system should provide
entropy to its guests, for instance through virtio-rng (which can be picked
up with rngd).


TL;DR: On VMs, haveged might be unsafe, depending on the virtualization
   environment's configuration, and we (d-i/tasksel) do not have enough
   information available to make that call.


Best,

  nicoo


[0]: Gods, this is painful to write. There is no reason for random(4) to
 ever “run out” of entropy once initialized, but for some
 misconceptions about cryptography; however, this is the implemented
 behaviour and we kinda have to live with it for now.

[1]: 
https://tls.mbed.org/tech-updates/security-advisories/polarssl-security-advisory-2011-02
 is an example of the same algorithm failing on VMs.

IIRC, back then VMware ESXi was the only platform virtualizing the rdtsc
instruction, but 1) I do not have access to it to test (nor do I want to)
2) other virtualization platforms, now or in the future, might do this too.



Bug#904804: debootstrap: Unable to deboostrap a sid environment on stretch

2018-07-28 Thread Nicolas Braud-Santoni
Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.89
Severity: important
Control: tag -1 + sid stretch

Hi,

I just realised it's currently impossible to debootstrap a sid (build)
environment on Debian stretch, creating difficulties for attendees of the
DebConf packaging workshop, presumably because of util-linux being
uninstallable.

Please find included the build log; the exact debootstrap invocation was:
  sudo debootstrap sid /tmp/debootstrap http://localhost:3142/debian

(localhost:3142 being a freshly-initialized apt-cacher)


Best,

  nicoo

PS: Apologies if this is assigned to the wrong package, I was unsure whether to
assign it to debootstrap or util-linux.

Guaranteeing initramfs integrity during Secure Boot

2016-05-16 Thread Nicolas Braud-Santoni
Hi,


This is a basically a recap of ideas I had while talking to Ben Hutchings
  (benh@) and my friend and colleague Johannes Winter, so a good part of the
  credit should go to them.  All blame, however, should be directed to me.


The current plans for implementing Secure Boot are (roughly) as follow:
- a shim bootloader is signed by Microsoft [0];
  it contains a Debian-specific, (public) signature key;
- the actual bootloader is signed by Debian,
  and the signature is checked by the shim;
- the bootloader checks the signature of the kernel;
- the kernel only loads signed modules, and disables features that
  would lead to untrusted ring0 code being executed (securemode = 1).

[0] Sadly, Microsoft is the one organisation with a signing key that
is trusted out-of-the-box by most computers.
Nothing prevents us from packaging a Debian-signed shim for people
who wish to mess with their trust store and trust only Debian.


While all of that give some guarantees that the kernelspace code is
  trustworthy [1], it doesn't do anything to ensure that the userspace is.

A first step [2] in that direction would be to ensure that a legitimate
  initrd is booted.  This is difficult: the initrd is generated on
  the device, and so cannot be signed using the Debian key; because of this,
  I will not even attempt to protect the initrd against somebody gaining
  root access on the running system [3].

A solution for this could be as follows:
- When the shim bootloader is installed, a HMAC key [4] is generated, and
  sealed to the TPM in such a way that it is accessible iff the platform
  booted on this specific shim bootloader; the sealed blob is stored on /boot.
- The HMAC of each installed initrd is written on /boot (say, in
  initrd.img-${VERSION}-${ARCH}-${SHIM_VERSION}.mac; the shim version matters).
- During boot, the kernel loads a built-in “shim initrd” [5] (that is part of
  the same binary, and covered by the Debian signature), which unseals the HMAC
  key, checks that the initrd is correct, and transfers control to it.

All of this nicely prevents an adversary (who doesn't have local root) from
  making us load their “custom” initrd:
- it must be authenticated with a HMAC;
- the HMAC key is only available after booting on the shim bootloader;
- the adversary is in a catch-22: they need local code execution to HMAC
  the code they want to make us execute.

[1] Note that this doesn't do much against an adversary with a kernel 0day.
It's not meant to.

[2] Actually, ensuring integrity until the initrd is started /and/
using full disk encryption should thwart somebody attempting to
compromise a powered down laptop (if we forget that LUKS doesn't,
on principle, guarantee integrity of the volume, and if the
adversary doesn't replace the on-flash firmware).

[3] In principle, it is possible to measure the mkinitramfs run and only
allow properly-generated initrdes to be signed.
In practice, this very likely breaks in horrible ways because the OS
is not meant to protect running processes from root (who can poke at
the processes, change the initramfs-tools config, change the data it
consumes, ...).

[4] I started off with having a device-specific signing key, but ended up
with this scheme, where using asymetric crypto isn't required.

[5] This seemed to be, to Johannes and I, the least annoying place where to
put Debian-specific code; I might be very mistaken.


What I glossed over until now is how to deal with a shim {up,down}grade,
  or with the system being restored from backups.

The good news is that there is no state put in the TPM [6], so restoring
  a backup of /boot should be completely transparent.  Handling shim versions
  change is similarly transparent: generate a new HMAC key for that shim
  version, seal it to the TPM under the right PCR constraints, and compute
  HMACs of all currently-installed initrds [7].

However, should a backup of /boot be restored that contains no (sealed) key
  for the installed shim bootloader, the system would fail to boot;
  I'm not sure how to handle such a mismatch, nor how likely it is.

[6] Aside from the TPM proof value, which would be nuked assuming someone
clears ownership, preventing the HMAC keys from being unsealed,
which would make the system fail to boot.  Oops.

[7] Filthy lies: an initrd being built after the shim was changed but before
reboot would require special care; it's not a big issue in principle, but
still introduces more complexity.


This should be effective against an adversary that gains physical access to a
  device, yet cannot tamper with the live system (by plugging in a device that
  exploits a buggy driver, by messing with the memory bus or a DMA-capable
  interface, ...) and cannot replace the firmware.

As you can see, this does not outright prevent evil-maid style attacks:
  the goal here is to make such attacks harder/less practical.

unprivileged users; as those devices become more prevalent, we should make
sure they work by default.

In Debian stretch, mbiebl temporarily shipped a copy of those rules directly
in udev, but this was removed in buster (in version 237-2); it appears the most
sensible solution is to recommend this package in task-desktop and in 
applications
that directly provide U2F functionality (i.e. without depending on libu2f-host).


Best,

  nicoo

fetch the debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso  from

I zcat the boot.img.gz on the USB stick and cp the iso file and start the

Everything goes right until the "Install base system" step, and then 
 
Error Msg :
