| ogra_ | hmpf, why dont we have a serial version of the mini iso | 17:30 |
|---|---|---|
| ogra_ | i'm trying to adjust it, but whatever mkisofs produces for me doesnt boot | 17:30 |
| ogra_ | even if i just use it unchanged | 17:31 |
| ogra_ | cjwatson, do we anything special to mkisofs recently ? | 17:53 |
| infinity | ogra_: We don't use mkisofs for the miniiso, we use genisoimage. | 19:21 |
| infinity | ogra_: See build/config/x86.cfg (search for MINIISO) in debian-installer. | 19:21 |
| ogra_ | yeah, i tried to scrap that out of the d-i buildlog | 19:22 |
| ogra_ | but neither works | 19:22 |
| ogra_ | i created an USB syslinux boot thingy by hand now | 19:22 |
| infinity | ogra_: Anyhow, I'm a bit confused by your need for a "serial" ISO... | 19:22 |
| infinity | ogra_: Booting with console=ttyS0 should Just Work, no? | 19:23 |
| ogra_ | infinity, how do i inject that ? | 19:23 |
| ogra_ | i was to lazy to set up a tftp server | 19:23 |
| infinity | Oh, for mini.iso, yeah, I guess I could see the chicken and egg issue there. :P | 19:23 |
| ogra_ | dd'ing the iso to usb as i usually do keeps the iso filesystem | 19:23 |
| infinity | I don't tend to think of serial-only people as people who use CD drives. | 19:23 |
| infinity | Or physical media in general. | 19:23 |
| ogra_ | yeah, i got new firewall HW ... :) | 19:24 |
| ogra_ | i thought i could just mount the iso, copy the contents, modify txt.cfg and isolinux.cfg and re-roll the iso | 19:25 |
| ogra_ | but no matter what command i use it wouldnt boot | 19:25 |
| infinity | Well, that would leave you without the el torito bits. | 19:25 |
| davmor2 | ogra_: the missus unplugs the internet ever time you try and work out of hours too then ;) | 19:25 |
| ogra_ | haha | 19:25 |
| cjwatson | ogra_: afaik nothing's changed recently | 19:45 |
| ogra_ | well, i got it installed now | 19:51 |
| ogra_ | (not sure what i need a 64bit 4G dual core firewall for with my 2MBit ... but the old one is giving up) | 19:52 |
| ogra_ | (and the hardware is just lovely) | 19:52 |
