[02:18] <dabaR> Hey. I just saw that mailing to the list by Aaron Fay. I am wondering whether he tried using both the alternate and desktop CDs.
[02:19] <dabaR> And would it make a difference. I will send a mail to the list to ask him.
[02:38] <kro> reposting from ubuntu-devel.  just found out about this chat room.
[02:39] <kro> Should the netboot version of debian installer located at
[02:39] <kro>       http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/
[02:39] <kro>       work?
[02:44] <kro> I just tried the daily alternate installer cdimage and is bombing out for me as well
[03:04] <kro> doh, I think I spoke to soon.  investigating.
[03:06] <kro> in the alt-f4 console it does keep spitting out kernel: not found repeatedly.
[03:06] <kro> and it seems to either hang, or be moving really slow.
[03:11] <kro> it starts spitting out the kernel: not found message after the "Detecting hardware to find cd-roms" window closes.
[07:14] <tepsipakki> kro: known kernel bug

[07:58] <kro> tepsipakki: thanks.  I'll try the workaround listed in the comments
[08:13] <kro> tepsipakki: w00t!  thanks.
[10:51] <tepsipakki> kro: glad it worked for you ;)

[12:14] <cjwatson> dabaR: it's hard to tell without the logs, but the relevant autopartitioning code is common to both
[12:14] <cjwatson> dabaR: I've followed up
[12:29] <tepsipakki> cjwatson: what package is responsible for displaying foreign character sets in alternate installer, newt-something?
[12:30] <cjwatson> a chain of stuff
[12:31] <cjwatson> cdebconf, newt, bogl
[12:32] <cjwatson> bogl's the underlying terminal; newt does form layout; cdebconf's newt frontend mediates between installer code and newt
[12:32] <cjwatson> and there's also the font, bterm-unifont
[12:33] <cjwatson> if characters are missing from it, it might be the build system's fault, debian-installer
[12:33] <cjwatson> sometimes it's best just to file bugs on debian-installer and sort out exactly who's to blame later ... :-)
[12:42] <tepsipakki> ok, cool
[03:54] <dabaR> cjwatson: Yes, I saw. Thanks.
