Bug#783081: installation-reports: Jessie daily installer installs kernel in flash without any further confirmation (QNAP TS-212)
Hello Martin,
thanks for your answer.
It was less of an inconvenience as a surprise. In fact, after all
went fine, I was happy not to boot via tftp anymore. :-)
So, yes, this was just a note to the few users, who have concerns
writing to the flash in fear to create an unbootable device.
(I think I have read these sites you mention as I have somewhere these
mtd backups around from the wheezy debootstrapped way.)
After all I do not bother much having it written to the flash - when the
bootloader remains intact and I have the serial connection to boot
something via tftp. (On x86 something like a Live-CD ...)
I am fine with closing this bug, it was just intended as a
installation-report.
(Are these supposed to be closed right after opening or did I open it
the wrong way?)
Kind regards,
Bernhard
PS.: After all thanks for all the work - somehow one thinks how many
devices are needed to get all these informations and what equipment to
recover on that way?
