I don't think, given how long this is on the table already, it doesn't make much difference if its 2 or 8. Just something thats clear defined and not some random, non-clear "sometime in the future" point. The hurd-i386 architecture has been moved to to debian-ports yesterday. I hope it shows the willingness to do that. Please give us at least 4 more weeks to do the remaining kfreebsd-*. That will provide some margin to account for the non-infinite free time to work on that (especially in the freeze period) and possibly to get more disk space for the debian-ports machine. Thats ok, end of May is a nice point to take. Thanks for the work and the timeframe for the rest! -- bye, Joerg
Bug#927867: RM: elilo-installer -- ROM; elilo is no longer in the archive
Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal User: debian-ia64@lists.debian.org Usertags: ia64 Hello! elilo-installer can be removed from the archive as the bootloader it installs, elilo, has been removed from the archive almost five years ago [1]. There is no concern of breakage as all architectures which used elilo in the past can now use GRUB without any problems, including ia64 which we just switched over to use the grub-efi-ia64 package. elilo is also dead upstream. Please remove elilo-installer. Thanks, Adrian > [1] https://packages.qa.debian.org/e/elilo/news/20140914T125534Z.html -- .''`.

RE: Bug#927562: Updating the elilo-installer Uploaders list
Thanks Adrian. Setup went mostly as expected on my rx2660. I did have to use “modprobe_blacklist=radeon nomodeset” to work around the Radeon GPU issue. GRUB was installed by default. Boots the current system just fine but can’t boot Wheezy (another partition) even though it is able to detect it. For Wheezy I still have to use ELILO 3.14 which I kept on a backup directory in my EFI part. Tomorrow I’ll try it on the zx6000. _ Pedro From: John Paul Adrian Glaubitz Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2019 10:44:25 AM To: Pedro Miguel Justo Cc: debian-ia64@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: Bug#927562: Updating the elilo-installer Uploaders list Hi Pedro!
