package: linux-base version: 2.6.32-15 severity: wishlist tags: patch Hi, first of all: thank you all for maintaining linux-2.6 - you're doing an awesome job! <h01ger> hi. i'm using .32.bpo on lenny, together with linux-base. so far so good, works great. but i have an issue with automated installs (with d-i and preseeding): linux-base informs me that /etc/fstab contains an entry (/etc/scd0 iirc) which might not work in future versions. i couldnt care less and would like to get rid of this warning,as it prevents fully automated installations <bwh^> h01ger: I put a heuristic in there to work out whether this is a fresh installation or upgrade <bwh^> h01ger: Maybe you can suggest how to improve it <bwh^> (the problem is that linux-base did not exist in lenny, so we cannot check whether the package itself is being upgraded) <bwh^> Of course you should also be able to preseed the answer <h01ger> i tried, using what debconf-get-selections |grep linux-base gave me after an installation, but that didnt work <bwh^> weird # make linux-base install quietly # # Boot loader configuration check needed linux-base linux-base/disk-id-manual-boot-loader error # Configuration files still contain deprecated device names linux-base linux-base/disk-id-manual error # Apply configuration changes to disk device IDs? linux-base linux-base/disk-id-convert-plan-no-relabel boolean true # Opdater diskenheds-id'er i systemkonfigurationen? linux-base linux-base/disk-id-convert-auto boolean true # Apply configuration changes to disk device IDs? linux-base linux-base/disk-id-convert-plan boolean true <h01ger> bwh, i wonder if your test fails as there were already .26 packages installed... <h01ger> ha! if /var/log/installer doesnt exist, its a fresh install. bingo see attached patch <h01ger> bwh, do you want a wishlist bug about this? <bwh^> h01ger: Yes, file a wishlist bug, please cheers, Holger
