Je joue à ressusciter des vieilleries d'il y a au moins 20 ans, et l'installeur Debian 12 n'est pas très content car il n'y a que 128M de RAM (mais pour l'instant ça passe quand même) 💾💿📻
@gcolpart Ça me rappelle des choses, genre #DebianInstaller sur le D-Link DNS-323 avec sa RAM super limitée (64 Mo), qui partait en OOMK pendant la synchro RAID 1 en arrière-plan (avant d'avoir eu une chance de définir de la swap), c'était grandiose…
With thanks to the images team (debian-cd) and the archive team (ftp) for trusting me to handle parts of their workload, meaning a very comfortable autonomy in the release process.
@XOrgFoundation The answer is obviously: “whatever people actually doing the work are going to be working on!”
Speaking as a former X maintainer in Debian, and as someone who integrated it in the graphical installer, replacing DirectFB… Feeling a little sad to see that old friend go, not sure about the timeline in distributions, or about what (re)work will be needed in #DebianInstaller to keep a graphical version. But I'm sure we'll manage!
