[15:28] hmm, how would i get xfsprogs-udeb installed on a running mini.iso install [15:29] tell anna to fetch it [15:30] (no joke) [15:30] anna-install xfsprogs-udeb only gets me a black shell [15:30] i.e. it just resets the terminal [15:30] there is a kernel/d-i pressed option to fetch optional udebs. [15:31] well, i dont want to reboot :/ [15:31] * ogra_ tries to recover data from an old server md raid with xfs ... [15:32] and obviously it wants me to run xfs_repair before i mount [15:34] * ogra_ doesnt get why we ship mkfs.xfs by default but not the fscks tools for it [16:15] anna-install xfsprogs-udeb probably won't tell you it's done anything, but the udeb contents look right. [16:16] Though indeed we probably ought to ship checking tools. We probably don't because d-i itself doesn't use them currently, and nobody ever cared enough about xfs to fix it up for rescue purposes. [16:17] That is, anna-install will install that package even if it doesn't say anything. (Unless you're before the "retrieving additional components" stage in the installer, in which case it will simply queue it for installation when you get that far.) [16:27] yeah, i found it already gets installed ... but only has mkfs.xfs inside [16:27] i helped myself with making a tarball from the actual deb contents ... all fine now [16:27] i dont get what has ever ridden me to use xfs ...
