Base System Installation Checklist:
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it
Initial boot: [O] OK
Detect network card: [O] OK
Configure network: [O] OK, prefer auto ethX to allow-hotplug in network/interfaces
Detect CD: [O] OK
Load installer modules: [O] OK
Detect hard drives: [O] OK
Partition hard drives: [O] OK
Install base system: [O] OK from DVD-1 only
Clock/timezone setup: [O] OK but need a choice in case dual boot
User/password setup: [O] OK
Install tasks: [O] OK
Install boot loader: [O] Installed OK but TRASHED by Vista mbr. Ignores BIOS Boot drive
Overall install: [E] GDM segfaults when I logoff
Comments/Problems:
Add a request for additional hosts before writing /etc/hosts?
First, gdm segfaults when I log off. It doesn't hang but I see the segfault and RIP every time.
Sessions seem unaffected so It's probably late in the logout process, possibly ATI driver related
although the initial driver is VESA @ 1024x768 on ati r500 chipset.
Installing the fglrx driver below has no effect on the segfault.
Next, something in X causes window resizing to be really slow, especially when playing a video
and the effect is carried over to 3D if I install Compiz-fusion.
I have an ATI X1650 PCIe card that requires fglrx which installs fine from the ATI installer.
However, I have to install ia32-libs and build the kernel source. The gui version (./ati-driver-8.02---.run)
install fails to get and build the appropriate packages. Probably due to the testing status in sources.list
but "apt-get upgrade -f" gets current kernel sources and finishes the process but I must build the source using
package manager to successfully install the driver.
It's a bit presumptuous to just grub install (hd0) without an opportunity to change drive.
Debian is usually installed as a server but it's becoming more popular as a desktop and dual boot
The grub install ignored the BIOS boot order and installed to the first drive, not the current boot drive
:( :( :( Big hassle to fix!
The sound driver does not allow me to set the speaker mode and defaults to the "front" speaker, should be PCM
I have only 4 speakers but cannot set the output correctly using the volume control.
It's very fast, to the point and has enough detail to get the job done.
Two issues come to mind over and over again for me, having run this 20+ times.
Those two issues are time zone and grub installer, as noted above.
Thanks for listening
Tom Bailey
