Bug#413649: debian-installer-manual: Appendix D.3 should mention how to set password and ssh
Package: debian-installer-manual
Severity: minor
Hi !
When doing a remote installation using appendix D.3, we could add this
in paragraph D.3.7. :
If you do a remote installation, do not forget to install a SSH server:
aptitude install ssh
And don't forget to set root password:
passwd root
Those two steps are mandatory to be able to connect remotely before
reboot. Maybe we should also advocate the install of fuser to be able
to umount partitions :
fuser -mk /var
fuser -mk /home
fuser -mk /usr
Logoff from the chroot
umount /mnt/debinst
We are not sure that the host system will do all those steps
(especially for /var, /home, /usr in the chroot).
