Package: d-i.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: d-i Dear Debian Installer Team and Maintainers, I would like to contribute a new package for the Debian Installer to configure FCP devices and install Debian on SCSI devices which are available on Linux on z Systems. FCP device provide access to SAN storage, for example, SCSI devices. SCSI devices and DASD devices are the main storage devices on a mainframe. With the FCP configuration utility, users can enable FCP devices. Depending on the hardware configuration of the FCP devices, LUNs will be automatically detected and attached; alternatively, users are guided to manually add LUNs. The FCP configuration utility can be preseeded to perform an unattended configuration of FCP devices. I will attach the patches for this new utility, as well as, a README with more details in another mail. Feedback for the FCP configuration utility is very welcome! I am looking forward to discuss and work with you on the steps to make it available with the Debian Installer. Thank you very much! Kind regards, Hendrik -- Hendrik Brueckner brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com | IBM Deutschland Research & Development GmbH Linux on z Systems Development | Schoenaicher Str. 220, 71032 Boeblingen
