Bug#973683: some images blacklisted by Google Chrome safe browsing

2020-11-05 Thread Marcin Owsiany
If it would be possible to include a few words of warning at the top of
file listings, that would be great.
I vaguely remember it was possible to configure Apache in a way that it
would include the contents of a README file in the index itself?

Unfortunately I don't think patching Debian-distributed Firefox is going to
help much here. The point is that these files need to be downloadable from
a non-Debian OS!

Did we try talking to the problematic mirror providers about the issues our
users are facing? I understand this may be a delicate issue to some, but I
guess it does not hurt to at least start a discussion?
FWIW I don't think Google's file scanner cares whether the mirror is in
Sweden or not :-)


Install Problem

2020-11-05 Thread slow_speed

Dear Steve, et al.
Thanks for your efforts on trying to bundle non-free with a simple net 
install media.


I tried it on an HP Pavilion G6 that had Windows 8.1.  Freed up some 
space and gave it a go.


Everything seems to finish correctly, but upon restart there is no boot 
to grub, no Ethernet network connection and no video.


If I press F9 during boot, I can see the Debian option and that takes me 
to grub.


However, when selecting the first option, I see things trying to load, 
and then get to a blank screen and blinking cursor.


Upon trying it again, I choose the advanced options which will boot to a 
terminal prompt, but there is no network connection available.   
(connect: Network is unreachable)


It seems that the installer should look to identify the existing 
hardware and let the user confirm the choices and match up non-free 
drivers that way.


Thought you'd like to know.

Regards,
Michael
