Package: d-i.debian.org Severity: important I'm trying to install Debian testing on a Mac Pro 1,1 dedicated boot/swap/root partition set.
The 12/3/2018 debian-testing-amd64-i386-netinst.iso DVD boots using the refit boot manager. It hangs at the first splash screen when I select install for amd64. This is very similar to what I notice in 915...@bugs.debian.org What works to install Debian Buster/testing on a Mac Pro 1,1 with Radeon 570 video card: 1. Install Jessie/amd64 without X11 using the amd64-i386 netinst dvd 2. Perform a dist-upgrade to Buster, still without any X11. The dist-upgrade ran without an intermediate upgrade to Stretch. After doing this I have a functional system with no X11 window manager using firmware video. (This was tested with a shutdown and reboot) 3. After performing the dist-upgrade to buster: a. install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau b. install xfce following directions in https://wiki.debian.org/Xfce What seems to be failing with the Buster amd64-i386 netinst: It looks like installer disk seems to be running the xserver-xorg-video-radeon driver. This behavior for xserver-xorg-video-radeon seems to have started with Stretch The Mac Pro 1,1 has a 32 bit ia32 EFI firmware. I have never gotten the radeon driver to work on this machine for either Stretch or Buster. What does work is xserver-xorg-video-nouveau I have a change suggestion for the debian installer: Go back to using the text window installer. If you can't go back to using the text window installer, run installer under xserver-xorg-video-nouveau Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) *** /home/dgh/mp_config.txt dgh@mpgpt:~$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000X Chipset Memory Controller Hub (rev 30) 00:02.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset PCI Express x8 Port 2-3 (rev 30) 00:03.0 Non-VGA unclassified device: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset PCI Express x4 Port 3 (rev 30) 00:04.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5000X Chipset PCI Express x16 Port 4-7 (rev 30) 00:05.0 Non-VGA unclassified device: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset PCI Express x4 Port 5 (rev 30) 00:06.0 Non-VGA unclassified device: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset PCI Express x4 Port 6 (rev 30) 00:07.0 Non-VGA unclassified device: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset PCI Express x4 Port 7 (rev 30) 00:08.0 System peripheral: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset DMA Engine (rev 30) 00:10.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FSB Registers (rev 30) 00:10.1 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FSB Registers (rev 30) 00:10.2 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FSB Registers (rev 30) 00:11.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset Reserved Registers (rev 30) 00:13.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset Reserved Registers (rev 30) 00:15.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FBD Registers (rev 30) 00:16.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FBD Registers (rev 30) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB High Definition Audio Controller (rev 09) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset PCI Express Root Port 1 (rev 09) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset PCI Express Root Port 2 (rev 09) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset PCI Express Root Port 3 (rev 09) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset PCI Express Root Port 4 (rev 09) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset UHCI USB Controller #1 (rev 09) 00:1d.1 USB controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset UHCI USB Controller #2 (rev 09) 00:1d.2 USB controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset UHCI USB Controller #3 (rev 09) 00:1d.3 USB controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset UHCI USB Controller #4 (rev 09) 00:1d.7 USB controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset EHCI USB2 Controller (rev 09) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev d9) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset LPC Interface Controller (rev 09) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB IDE Controller (rev 09) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB SATA AHCI Controller (rev 09) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset SMBus Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express Upstream Port (rev 01) 01:00.1 PIC: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB I/OxAPIC Interrupt Controller (rev 01) 01:00.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express to PCI-X Bridge (rev 01) 02:00.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express Downstream Port E1 (rev 01) 02:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express Downstream Port E2 (rev 01) 02:02.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express Downstream Port E3 (rev 01) 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 80003ES2LAN Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01) 05:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 80003ES2LAN Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01) 08:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
