Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal


I have it a MacOS 9.1 external hard drive attached to a 603ev/275
oldworld on hfsplus filesystem, and empty hfs filesystem on internal
hard drive (where I wish to install Debian). the "Scan hard drives for
an installer ISO image" does not find the 'debian-testing.iso' which is
the 250MB minimal installer image on the external drive. However it does
find this image when I copy it to the internal hard drive (where it
fails to allow me to repartition this drive).

The default mount order in /proc/filesystems is hfs before hfsplus, and
hfsplus always has an empty hfs filesystem alongside for older MacOS,
the installer will never find the image.

The installer appears to use /etc/filesystems which I have just
created with:
	hfsplus
	*

So perhaps this /etc/filesystems needs to be placed into the installer.

Description: 
 iso-scan   - Scan hard drives for an installer ISO image (udeb)
 load-iso   - Load installer components from an installer ISO (udeb)
Closes: 335093 337316
Changes: 
 iso-scan (1.15) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Deal with the case where the machine is so fast that iso-scan
     scans for new devices before the USB disks become ready. Add a possible
     second pass in the quick scan that sleepds, looks for new devices and,
     if any new devices are found, rescans them all. Closes: #335093
     (Note that rather than complex code to keep track of what devices are new,
     I just rescan them all because this is supposed to happen only on very
     fast machines anyway. KISS)
   * Load hfsplus before hfs, since hfsplus filesystems show as an empty hfs
     filesystem, which hides any iso on them. Loading hdsplus first should make
     mount try it first. Closes: #337316
