| gnu_srs1 | LeePen: et al. Any ideas how the make bug submitters more helping, especially when moreinfo is asked for? | 13:47 |
|---|---|---|
| LeePen | Not really. Ask for specific things and Be Nice™. | 13:49 |
| palinuro | rrq debian-installer also checks for missing libraries and hard-puts them in the installer image if possible and if the corresponding udeb was not selected for installation. it should be part of the library slitting, or something like that | 17:37 |
| fsmithred | LeePen, the mini.iso seems to be missing disk drivers for qemu and virtualbox. Also, booting in uefi mode goes to grub prompt. Using the configfile option at the grub prompt brings up the boot menu. | 18:48 |
| Evilham | fsmithred: did that ever work? :-D because I was wondering about the same thing before/yesterday evening | 18:49 |
| fsmithred | yeah, if I couldn't have a dozen or so virtual installs, I wouldn't be able to test much. | 18:50 |
| Evilham | what I mean is: with the mini.iso, that one I never tried tbh | 18:50 |
| fsmithred | yeah, usually the mini.iso works in VM | 18:51 |
| Evilham | alrighty,t hen good that we caught that | 18:51 |
| LeePen | fsmithred: doesn't qemu use virtio_{blk,scci}? | 19:09 |
| LeePen | I have just tried with my build from today and those are both listed. | 19:09 |
| LeePen | You might be suffereing from teh kernel bump over the weekend. The mini.iso from last week won't work any more. | 19:10 |
| fsmithred | maybe. But in the past, I've gotten a different message when that happens. | 19:31 |
| LeePen | fsmithred: OK. Let's try again with the jenkins build. One of the build hosts has run out of space. | 19:35 |
| fsmithred | let me know when it's ready (and where it is) | 19:47 |
| rrq | LeePen: might be that dependency hickup I ran into wrt libkmod2{,-ubin} and libc6{,-ubin} | 22:33 |
| rrq | I haven't checked in debian-installer, but I needed to nominate both libc6 and libkmod2 explicitely | 22:34 |
| rrq | missing the latter was upsetting for the kernel and missing the former broke later | 22:35 |
| rrq | it seems to be that the dependency system is happpy with loading only libc6-ubin (and libkmod2-ubin) as it is declared to provide libc6 (libkmod2) although it doesn't include the juicy bit. | 22:37 |
| rrq | or similar/ | 22:37 |
| rrq | . | 22:37 |
| rrq | or something else :) | 22:40 |
| rrq | no wait: "missing libc6" broke dpkg's unpacking when building the initrd, and then "missing libkmod2" broke the startup. | 22:51 |
| fsmithred | current netinstall works | 22:52 |
| fsmithred | I did an expert install with the amd64 | 22:52 |
| rrq | great. thanks. | 22:53 |
| rrq | do you think we get away with being without the gtk variant? | 22:54 |
| fsmithred | maybe for the netinstall, almost certainly for the server iso, ... | 22:55 |
| fsmithred | desktop people might freak out without a mouse | 22:55 |
| fsmithred | btw, rescue mode works | 22:55 |
| rrq | great. would you mind checking the efi installs as well? | 22:57 |
| fsmithred | I'm about to try that again | 22:57 |
| fsmithred | may be a problem booting it in qemu | 22:58 |
| fsmithred | it wants to do pxe | 22:59 |
| fsmithred | it=Tianocore | 22:59 |
| rrq | hmm doesn't work, then. I did some random improvements on that part (didn't like debian-installer's grub config) | 23:02 |
| fsmithred | in virtualbox, I can go into the boot maintenance manager and boot from file | 23:03 |
| rrq | same for i386? (just some lead if it brakes in finding the loader or wrt the config) | 23:04 |
| fsmithred | I haven't tried i386 with this set | 23:05 |
| rrq | are you set up for tickling the win32-loader option as well? | 23:05 |
| fsmithred | no windows here | 23:05 |
| rrq | thanks. need to go. | 23:07 |
| fsmithred | I'll keep playing with them | 23:07 |
| fsmithred | amd64 uefi install in vbox works and installed system boots correctly. | 23:57 |
| fsmithred | just the iso doesn't give me the boot screen. | 23:57 |
