Bug#777905: base-installer: x32 port
Package: base-installer
Version: 1.152
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i patch
User: debian-x32@lists.debian.org
Usertags: port-x32 di-x32
Hi!
Please apply the attached patch. It defines kernel selectors for the x32
architecture. As x32 is a new ABI atop the amd64 kernel, this patch
symlinks kernel/amd64.sh to kernel/x32.sh, to keep them in sync in the
future. The patch can be applied directly to the d-i/base-installer git
repository.
If you want to test, as the patch-set for x32 in d-i involves around twenty
packages, you'll want ready packages from the repository at debian-x32.org.
Complete d-i isos are available at http://debian-x32.org/#debian-installer
while debs/udebs/modified sources at http://ftp.debian-x32.org/debian/
