Installing Debian from the Setup -> Debian Page is resulting in an Error (tested on DNS-323 and DNS-325):

Even it is written, that kexec is currently not working on the 325, i looked a bit into the Script and the error and it seems to be for me, that the (root) Problem is, that the script tries to extract a *.gz archive from the downloaded .deb-file, while the latest version contains .xz. I tried to change that, but failed to extract the .xz with installed tools on the 325 (getting "magic number" errors).
Hardcoded setting the .deb-file to use to the pre-latest version in the cgi-script worked fine for the extraction but failed during the installation (possibly because it was tested on a 325?).
Don't think so. Any log? How far did the installation went? Currently I can't test this.
As for the 'xz' format, that is going to be a big issue... only making the debian installer to install a xz enabled tar package. Have to create the tar package first.
Same issue here, teste on a DNS-323 rev. C1
I successfully "fixed" this problem by directly hacking the
$CDEBOOT
variable and using thexz
extraction tool ondata.tar.xz
instead of anticipatingdata.tar.gz
as in the current/usr/www/cgi-bin/debian_proc.cgi
My
debian_proc.cgi
is as follows:/usr/www/cgi-bin/debian_proc.cgi
Please try the following patch (against a clean system), executing as 'root' the following command:
patch -p0 -i /path/to/debian-xz.patch
This patch worked for me too.
Alt-F-0.1RC4, kernel 3.10.32
DNS323B1
same issue as reported.
applied the patch, installation went successful.
(thought would confirm the fix)
thanks!
fixed by SVN commit 3050:
debian:
-fix ticket 329: supports xz compressed Debian installer
https://sourceforge.net/p/alt-f/tickets/329/
-fix wheezy motd
-convert ecdsa_host_key

Thanks
Is it available in the System../Fixes/UpdateList?
