Re: Debian ISO

 

Hi Nio,
The grub config (in the log) has nothing that indicates it saw the other OS.

Could you send the /boot/grub/grub.cfg from the successful install?

I will try to only add logging and determine where the swap part is not getting reset. I have a bit that might work... at very least I will be able to see more in the Log.

I will rebuild it soon

Hi Nio,
This is something odd for sure.
I have sent 230 to build.
This *should* fix the no swap problem
Let me know how it goes, I will be busy for a while

... and hi once more,

I tried to repeat the case, when the ToriOS installer could find the
previous operating systems and list them in the grub menu. But I am
sorry, I failed. I tried to repeat everything with slight variations,
but it does not work. I think I used the same hardware and
configuration at least once, so it seems there was a 'positive
glitch'. Maybe there is some timing problem, a race condition or
similar, that causes this problem.

Finally I tried installing at the basic OBI level (to the whole
drive), and it worked well :-)

Best regards

Hi Israel,

Tested no-swap again.

The first bug is still there: the 'No_swap' entry in the menu does
nothing (cannot reset from a selected swap partition to no swap).

After installation I discovered:

1. This time the system discovered the other installed system and added
entries for it in the grub menu. (Single case or repeatable now?)

2. The swap entry in /etc/fstab is commented away, like it should be -
this was the important bug, and you squashed it :-) The dead 'No_swap'
entry in the menu is a minor bug.

-o-

This looks promising. I intend to do some testing tomorrow too, but I
think and hope there is no show-stopping bug right now. Please be very
careful with changes in the code now.

Best regards
Nio

Hi again,

I'm attaching the log file that belongs to the successful test of no-swap.

Best regards
Nio
