Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
* What was the outcome
it removes x-window-system-core xlibmesa-dri and xlibmesa-gl with
many warnings of broken dependencies. However X works, xdm on one
system and gdm on the other, with DRI and 3-D graphics.
Regardless, very nice!

IIRC debootstrap uses sleep, but busybox-cvs doesn't provide it. Seems
relatively harmless.

Sounds like this might help for hppa also, so that cfdisk gets installed

debconf_set (debconf, DEBCONF_BASE "country", country);
Then in choose_mirror(), it does:

but by this time, debconf->value has been set to "value set", so the

On reboot, console has lots of non-implemented syscall warnings as a

code, but that struct looks like it will
end up generating lots of unaligned access traps on ia64, as mem[] will
be on a 4 rather than 8 byte binary. I'm a little confused, because I
thought this allocation stuff had been ripped out in favour of plain
malloc().

It is debootstrap, in file 'function

os.chmod(dest_path + "/" + ld_file_name, 0755)
That for-loop corrupts global lib_path, which makes find_lib() fail.
That "if not os.access(..." line is testing for 'lib' which never exists
as it just moved it. I believe it should be using ldlib:

Anyway, after that, it booted and mounted the initrd, and then looped

The obvious solution is to loop calling ped_partition_flag_next() to

Try an image from

Those images have fixes to the bootimage layout, which should mean they
can be booted rather more easily.

hppa/parisc uses msdos.

work with an in-memory image of a partition table, and avoid commiting

(ia64 is an exception, as parted is the only thing that can create GPT

Bug Bdale, waiting on new kernel udebs ;-) Bugs are filed with patches.

n invoke 'elilo' to start the install process. I suppose it is
possible one of your ISO images is broken, and all success reports were
for the other one, but it seems unlikely.
Peter, can you give us any more info on what you did to determine that
the CD didn't appear to be bootable?
ernel module udebs. We might consider a kernel-image
deb (not udeb), but I don't see the point, when it is supposed to be a
_net_ install.

Really? I thought the code later referenced something like
&foo->mem[bar]
which will surely break if you just s/char/long/

I sent this previously with the wrong package ("installer") above.
When I use the installer from the beta 3 iso image (downloaded from the
main site on 1 April 2004) to try and install, it fails to configure
either of my network adapters. I get the sa

had needed to pull udebs from the net though.
Many thanks to the hppa developers that got us a 2.4.25 kernel for
d-i, and to Jeff for the daily images.
