Package: virtinst Version: 0.400.0-7 Severity: normal Tags: patch The virt-install command uses Redhat style CPU arch naming, causing an error fetching the kernel and initrd from the mirror. I've worked around this by hardcoding the arch in the file /usr/share/python-support/virtinst/virtinst/OSDistro.py thus:
538,539c538,539 < kernelpath = "%s/netboot/debian-installer/%s/linux" % (self._prefix, self.arch) < initrdpath = "%s/netboot/debian-installer/%s/initrd.gz" % (self._prefix, self.arch) --- > kernelpath = "%s/netboot/debian-installer/amd64/linux" % > (self._prefix) > initrdpath = "%s/netboot/debian-installer/amd64/initrd.gz" % > (self._prefix) This isn't a real fix, more of a quick hack, but it does get the installer to run. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages virtinst depends on: ii python 2.5.2-3 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-libvirt 0.4.6-10 libvirt Python bindings ii python-libxml2 2.6.32.dfsg-5+lenny1 Python bindings for the GNOME XML ii python-support 0.8.4lenny2 automated rebuilding support for P ii python-urlgrabber 3.1.0-4 A high-level cross-protocol url-gr Versions of packages virtinst recommends: ii qemu 0.9.1-10lenny1 fast processor emulator ii virt-viewer 0.0.3-2 Displaying the graphical console o virtinst suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
