Package: base
Severity: critical
Tags: d-i l10n lfs ipv6
Justification: breaks the whole system
Dear Maintainer,
I believe I have been infested with "vmlinuz" virtual Microknoppix ISOs and
consistent
internet redirection (legit sites and untainted downloads are nearly impossible
for me
these days) for at least 13 months now, and possibly for several years or more.
I
only discovered I was living in a world of alternate URLs and framebuffer hell
several
months ago and have since only managed to break one laptop free from its grip
out of
13 assorted computers/phones/DVD players, etc currently in my workshop.
My one success was gained after several days of intense battling of the
framebuffer
on an Asus laptop someone brought to me to repair. Using a combination of
hot-plugs
(I stuffed every usb port full of power sucking junk mice, keyboards etc.)
and unexpected power drains (suddenly remove plug/battery, CTRL-ALT-Delete
flashing,
etc.) and a Knoppix 7.0 live DVD, I managed to crash the framebuffer and regain
control of the system. I was then sent an anonymous text file describing
"orphans" and
a worm originating in Turkey. I understood right away what that all meant and
started
exploring other devices around me. To my shock, nearly everything digital in
my
neighborhood appears to be an infected drone of sorts, including a lot of
hardware
I had simply thought to be broken (e.g. one of my Phillips DivX capable dvd
players
that still won't play discs because my 4 year old son inadvertantly cornered
the worm
that was living in it's screen and "settings menu," my "dumb phone" which I
never even
knew had bluetooth capabilities until they were exploited and my neighbors
entire
network (xbox, iphone, Macbook, etc. --I haven't told many people of this yet,
as I'm
trying to keep it maintained until I fully understand what exactly is going on.
I know that there are ways to manipulate the "gnu" wheezy ISOs I have (along
with
Knoppix discs) to shatter "vmlinuz" but am relatively new to UNIX based systems
and
would appreciate some detailed instructions on how to "glue" hard drives back
together
("partition one" I usually find split between the very start and end of the
hard drive
and hidden of course), build a REAL debian system from within the framebuffer
and/or
a method to navigate web browsers/burning software to actually aquire and
create
useful, NON-INFECTED programs and disc images. Any info or help would be
greatly
appreciated. Thank you for your time.

www (dot) eamonag (dot) org / pages /eamondx.htm
among other places.
P.S. My knowledge of UNIX/scripting/etc., while limited, is beyond
the level of "newbie" and I probably don't need "baby step" instructions/help,
as I
understand most concepts that I am dealing with here, I am just not fluent in
the
syntax nor structure of most of the programs I am working with.
My preffered "flavor" of Linux after much experimenting is definitly Debian and
I
preffer to build my own systems (usually with a Windows partition in the same
box for
using the more common (and customer-demanded) formats and programs that the
majority
of computer users have had crammed down their throats and know not of others OS
options-- I cater to their needs, however, and politely suggest Linux and other
alternatives whenever I can sneak it in...)

Nonsense or a very strange of humor or paranoia gone over board - whatever,
not a usable bug report, thus closing. Beware black spiders.
