Bug#69786: Documentation - important
Package: boot-floppies
Version: current
The following issues need to be documented. I'm writing this bug report
only because it should not be forgotten...
1. The meaning of the "<...>"-button in the getDirBox()-dialog
2. Preload modules from floppy, the first step by gemorin
3. Please check "choose directory within that medium that contains the
Debian archive. In slink you had to choose a directory within the
mounted dir/partition/medium. With 2.2.16 that was buggy and you'd
had do enter /instmnt/foo/bar/debian, in 2.2.17 it will be within
the mounted dir/partition/medium/whatever again.
4. Using an arbitrary device to install on. I don't think this is
documented already. You can mount anything to /target and
dbootstrap will continue. This is required if you want to use some
random raid system that isn't supported otherwise or if you want to
use raid0/1/5 for your filesystem (enter the 2nd console,
initialize it, mount it to /target, go back to the 1st and
continue)
Regards,
Joey
