Hi Luc,

Please ask this kind of question on the mailing lists...

Hi,
Debian 9 is now stable. Very good job !!

I'm used to download multi-arch DVD to install some computers 32 bits or 64
bits, downloading fewer packages during install.
Last image isn't present on server, only rc5 installer can be downloaded.

Is there some reason to remove this image. Should I waiting for this official
installer version, or rc5 will be the only version available ?

During the final parts of the stretch release process, it became clear
that this image is just too small to be useful. It's missing too many
components for both amd64 and i386, so we decided to drop it I'm
afraid.

We've also seen that amd64 has *way* overtaken i386 in terms of users
such that most people downloading an image will not need i386 support
at all now.

Sorry...



Thank you, for this reply.

I think that dvd multi-arch still a good compromise to install debian on 
several hosts, without downloading a lot of common packages.
Today I'm trying to install Stretch on HP pavilion x2 (see 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865490). This computer 
have only one wifi card which only works with non-free firmware. How to 
test if it is the origin of freeze ?


It should be easy with a DVD to install minimal desktop without network ;-)

Considering that :

 * "normal" install have 60 - 70 % of packages on DVD (others
   downloaded or upgraded)
 * only one installer key for all computers in my pocket is better ;-)
 * 4Go support boots on several BIOS.


Why not choose to include only one "prefered" desktop manager on 
multi-arch DVD to allow full install without network ?


Thx,
Luc.

Sorry to take so long to get back to you - things have been hectic in
the last couple of weeks... :-)

You're correct in that the timestamps shown are not UTC. It appears
that they're in local time - that machine is hosted in Sweden, which
right now will be at UTC+2.

Is that causing any actual problems for you, though?

Question about Debian Stretch Live images

2017-06-22 Thread Daniele Santu
Hi,

first of all, thanks for your awesome work. :)
I just wanted to ask something, maybe already frequently asked these days
(sorry if this is the case): do you plan to (shortly?) release updated
9.0.2 images because of the still present bugs in 9.0.1?
Keep the good work going and thanks again!

P.S. Sorry for my not-perfect English, not a native speaker!

I don't think we have any major bugs remaining in the 9.0.1
images. I'm still working on fixes for some of the issues that do
exist, but I'm now only expecting to build and release a new set of
images for 9.1, the first Stretch point release. If that follows the
normal pattern, expect to see that about a month after the initial
stretch release.

No problem, it's perfectly clear! :-)
