Netboot images for buster are not update

#1 Post by jejez13 »

Hello,

I use for several years the netboot images to install stable or testing. But since December 2017, the images (amd64 or i386) for buster are not update. Why ?
It is currently impossible to install buster per pxe for several months. This problem has already appeared with older versions, but it was enough to wait and the images were updated.
So what is the problem ?

Thanks.

You are troll, or simply looking badly? :cry: Here the link to netboot images. They are updated weekly.

Thank you for the response, but the link that you give is for netinst install. I am searching the netboot image. I install debian via pxe boot and netboot.

Thanks, but your link is for stretch. For buster, the last update is always in December 2017.

This link provides daily image :

https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd ... y/netboot/

But here, the initrd are minimals. Drivers are not included like the old initrd or like the initrd for stretch. I cannot install buster in virtualbox for example.

There is no debian buster release yet, that is "testing":

Thanks for all replies.

As i said, the daily netboot images are not installable in a virtual machine (vm) virtualbox. The virtual hard drive is not detected. I didn't try on a physical machine.
The netinst images are good for vm. I will search an try if it is possible to netboot with netinst images.
Any other ideas ?

The question that is important to me is why there are no more updates? I have been installing the testing version with netboot and in vm for years...

SOLVED !

I use the daily link : https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd ... y/netboot/
Drivers are ok in intrd, but i saw that the installer wants to download sid Release files ! My own debian mirror doesn't have those files. I upgrade my mirror with sid and it's OK.

So, if you want to install debian buster via netboot, with your own mirror, use de daily link, and have a mirror with sid !!
