Hi there,
9p remote filesystem modules are currently not packaged by the d-i
4.3.0-1 kernel. It would be useful to provide a package with these
modules, since one would then be able to use 9pvirtio devices to test
installation setups under QEMU using Filesystem Passthrough [0] to avoid
the creation of an ISO image. (Virtio modules are already available in
d-i.)
The following 9p* modules can be found in the regular kernel:
9pnet
9pnet-rdma
9pnet-virtio
9p
Please package 9p-modules-*-di. I suppose it could be useful to add all
the above module to that package, even though only 9pnet-virtio, 9p and
its dependencies 9pnet and fscache are required 9pvirtio.
Thanks,
Cheers,
