2023-03-26 | Remove dmraid (sata raid) | Chris Hofstaedtler | |
src:dmraid has dropped its udebs, and the experimental support from the installer was also removed a while ago. See discussion in bug #864423. | |||
2023-02-19 | Improve wording | Holger Wansing | |
2023-01-31 | Restore nomodeset & CtrlAltF2 tips | Philip Hands | |
This reverts some of commit ca65cb8962e1de7ddec4e117c381c0a2182b99bc. | |||
2023-01-30 | Drop isenkram-cli section and reference. | Cyril Brulebois | |
It was a welcome band-aid for Debian 11 (even if it required some heavy lifting to work correctly), but becomes unnecessary with Debian 12: we do have modalias information (as we did for Debian 11) and official installation images include non-free-firmware packages, so graphics drivers shouldn't be an issue anymore. | |||
2023-01-30 | Update sources.list section. | Cyril Brulebois | |
This is a little more subtle than that: hw-detect only enables the relevant components, but in practice almost all firmware packages are from non-free-firmware, so let's keep things simple. | |||
2023-01-30 | Mention the dep11 metadata directory and its purpose. | Cyril Brulebois | |
It would be a shame if users would delete those files and make hw-detect's job harder. | |||
2023-01-30 | Delete section about https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=firmware | Cyril Brulebois | |
Given the way debian-cd's make-firmware-image works, it seems quite unlikely (even if always possible, lots of changes there lately!) that we would be missing actual firmware packages, i.e. packages which have a good-looking name *and* actual firmware files in the expected location. Sending users on a wild goose chase seems like a waste of everyone's time. | |||
2023-01-30 | Trade unofficial images for official ones. | Cyril Brulebois | |
2023-01-30 | Delete note about kernel modules. | Cyril Brulebois | |
Since hw-detect uses modalias information (Debian 11), video drivers will get noticed by the install-firmware hook even if check-missing-firmware doesn't see any missing firmware files mentioned in dmesg. Debian 12 makes it much more likely to find required firmware packages. | |||
2023-01-30 | Mention non-free-firmware as a new choice in apt-setup (expert mode). | Cyril Brulebois | |
2023-01-01 | typo fixes | Andika Triwidada | |
2022-05-20 | Clean-up of outdated/no longer used content (remove docs for non-release archs) | Holger Wansing | |
2021-11-26 | Consistently use 'text-based installer' for the text installer (newt frontend) | Holger Wansing | |
2021-11-21 | Clarification about graphical installer info | Holger Wansing | |
2021-11-21 | Paragraph about use of graphical installer was visible for all archs, even ↵ | Holger Wansing | |
for those, who have no graphical installer. Fixed condition. | |||
2021-11-21 | Paragraph about graphical installer was not visible for some archs. Fixed ↵ | Holger Wansing | |
the conditions. And since the graphical installer is the default for amd64 and i386 now, I moved some related info to the top of 'How the installer works' chapter, instead of having it hidden somewhere in the middle. | |||
2021-09-28 | 'Installation over the network' is misleading for the use of ↵ | Holger Wansing | |
network-console. A netinst installation is also working via network. | |||
2021-09-10 | Include a note on how to change init system during install | Holger Wansing | |
2021-08-15 | Update: there is no print server task anymore | Holger Wansing | |

2021-07-30 | Document the isenkram-based procedure (See: #989863, #991627). | Cyril Brulebois | |
Start by mentioning a few workarounds that might help log in into the installed system: nomodeset & Ctrl-Alt-F2. Document how to use isenkram-cli to automate firmware installation (and mention what happens so that users are taken by surprise). Finally, set an `id` for this new subsection so that it can be linked to directly. v2: Apply suggestions by Holger Wansing, thanks! | |||

cover-term, where applicable | |||
2019-08-29 | Remove mentions of floppy | Holger Wansing | |
2019-08-14 | Just realized that console-setup shows a list with keyboard models and ↵ | Holger Wansing | |
generic keyboard layouts. So adjusting the manual again. | |||

2018-11-09 | Correct order of modules in 'Using the installer' chapter: clock setup is ↵ | Holger Wansing | |
after user account setup, not before. | |||
2018-11-09 | Remove a sentence which describes the old tasksel behaviour calling aptitude ↵ | Holger Wansing | |
to allow selection of individual packages | |||
2018-11-09 | Rename a forgotten occurrence of 'aptitude' into 'apt'. | Holger Wansing | |

2017-07-11 | Some more clearification on no-root-password/install-sudo issue. | Holger Wansing | |
Thanks to Baptiste Jammet for the heads-up. | |||
2017-07-03 | Document the installation of sudo, if no root password is given. | Holger Wansing | |
This was already documented in the installation-howto chapter with r68416, here I add the very similar text to the main document too. Closes #692314. | |||
