| corp186 | cjwatson: I have a question about the install process, and shtylman said you'd be the one to ask | 22:05 |
| corp186 | I'm reading the Frans Pop's paper on d-i, and it references Installer-Menu-Item tags in /var/lib/dpkg/status | 22:06 |
| corp186 | but I don't see the tag in the status file of 9.10's amd64 iso | 22:07 |
| corp186 | has the mechanism changed for how the packages are invoked? | 22:07 |
| corp186 | I realized I was looking at the live cd's tree instead of the initrd tree, which I believe is where the install takes place | 22:16 |
| corp186 | I've now found the tag in the initrd | 22:17 |

| corp186 | cjwatson: I'm looking at the netboot initrd right now, and I see that the highest installer menu item value that isn't above 90000 is choose-mirror at 2300 | 22:23 |
| corp186 | where do all the menu items after choose mirror come in? | 22:24 |
| corp186 | where packages are installed and where users are set up and so on | 22:24 |
| cjwatson | corp186: you need to look at the Packages files in the debian-installer subdirectory, not the main ones | 23:36 |
| cjwatson | corp186: the stuff in the initrd is only the core - the installer fetches more of itself at run-tim | 23:36 |

| cjwatson | corp186: the easiest summary is http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/debian-installer/ubuntu/annotate/head%3A/doc/devel/menu-item-numbers.txt | 23:36 |
