So did anyone do a sucessfull Sid install this week?

el_koraco · 2012-05-03 19:00:22

I tried to do an expert install with the Squeeze businesscard iso, but it died on me very fast in the install process. There was an apt issue at the time, so I'm not surprised. I'm not in the slightest bit interested in installing distrolets like aptosid or siduction, or duping a Stable install, I only care about a direct Sid install. So, if anyone has been successful recently or happens to be in the near future, do let me know.

I've been trying too, actually! Still no luck. I'm (almost) glad it's not something I'm doing wrong.

machinebacon · 2012-05-03 20:14:37

Which iso's have you guys used?

el_koraco · 2012-05-03 20:45:27

Business card, Squeeze and Wheezy. I just installed Wheezy straight up, no problems.

machinebacon · 2012-05-03 20:57:14

^ What about http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/ ?

I just used the testing businesscard ISO, and I'm still getting some debootstrap error. No clue what's causing it.

^ I'm getting the same debootstrap error when I try to expert-install sid. I finally just installed testing (from the business-card iso) and changed the sources list before update/upgrade.

Yeah, Wheezy is not nearly ready. New rant-thread coming up.

machinebacon · 2012-05-04 22:07:26

WTF, "no known bugs" and then such a crap?

I think 2MD's method is anyway the recommended one.

However.... waiting for el-cocaine's rant tongue

^ Yes ... Twice using http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily … est/amd64/

iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso

2ManyDogs · 2012-05-06 18:05:18

^ does the net install have the "expert" option to go directly to sid, or did you have to install and change the sources before update/upgrade?

VastOne · 2012-05-06 18:07:24

^ That area has the Weekly Testing build, which I used expert and took to Sid before the update/upgrade

It also has the business card too but I have not tried it.

2ManyDogs · 2012-05-06 18:10:19

^ OK thanks. I was able to do that with the business card iso as well, but going directly to sid still seems broken. Oh well, it's a small change to the sources list; not a big deal.

sunfizz98 · 2012-05-06 19:12:45

I upgraded waldorf to sid if that counts.

2ManyDogs · 2012-05-06 20:16:20

^ definitely counts for something -- did you just change the sources, or run one of your scripts? smile You might add something to the end of this thread (or start a new one) -- other people will probably want to know how to do this...

sunfizz98 · 2012-05-06 21:21:56

LOL, I actually just ran my post-install scripts which more or less changed/updated my sources.list

Digit · 2012-05-07 23:04:25

heh, ever since the move to debian from ubuntu, i've utterly neglected my post-install scripts. i dont see the need now i can move up to rolling release. wink

... i'll likely regret this the day it all goes wrong.

ps
i suppose i should add,
sid does have a few issues for me at the moment. not tried an install from scratch, have been on sid for months. last i checked: tilda = fail. tint2 = fail.

^Strange...my tint2 is fine after I upgraded Waldorf to sid.

VastOne · 2012-05-08 14:05:09

^ Same here... Might be the tint2 config remove issue that was there for a while

Hey,

tried to install sid with business-card-iso i386 from testing (I read that this installer provides installing SID directly in expert mode ?!?)

http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily … 86/iso-cd/

but could'nt even get a bootable usb stick for install

used, as recommended by debian,

dd if=iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M;sync

.. no success; doesn't boot (this works fine with crunchbang, aptosid and so on) ..

There is a new installer for Debian Wheezy, maybe it will work now, it even comes with Ext4 by default:

It's a dpkg issue, not an installer one.

ivanovnegro · 2012-05-14 18:02:29

^ Yeah, but it is cool that there is a new installer, more like news. smile

Lastcoder · 2012-05-15 09:11:17

.. installed aptosid and everything is fine here ;-)
