Subject: ltsp-server installation fails during installation of debian-edu

Date: Mon, 19 Jul 2010 16:34:15 +0200

Package: ltsp-server
Version: 5.2.3-1
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable
User: debian-edu@lists.debian.org
Usertags: debian-edu

Hi,

current debian-edu installer dvd (rsync -avzP ftp.skolelinux.org::cd-squeeze-test-dvd/debian-edu-amd64-i386-DVD-1.iso  debian-edu-DVD-1-squeeze.iso)
fails to set up the ltsp-server. The error reported is:

in_target: mount: can't find /cdrom in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab

I managed to get a bit further by applying the following patch to 
ltsp-5.2.3/server/plugins/ltsp-build-client/Debian/099-mount-cdrom:

The mount works now, but the next error reported is:

results in the error:

I hope this helps tracking the bug(s) down.

apparently this was recently changed in debian-installer, though sounds like
/media/cdrom has been viable at least since lenny, so this sounds ok to apply.

you'd also need to add --accept-unsigned-packages to the default commandline
arguments:

i'm not aware of CD images that actually have signed release files, so i guess
this isn't any more evil than installing from cd ever is...

sure does!

if i don't get to by tomorrow, i might not get a chance to fix it till next
week as i'll be traveling on and off. feel free to NMU (or maybe another
pkg-ltsp team member?) if you need it fixed sooner.

live well,
