ok - now I have KiCad 5.0.0 here.
2018-10-16: sda6 - apt - add stretch-backports, per instructions:
tingo@z30b:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/stretch-backports.list deb http://ftp.no.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main
then run 'apt update'.
2018-10-15:sda6 - Debian 9.5 is now installed:
tingo@z30b:~$ cat /etc/debian_version 9.5 tingo@z30b:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Debian GNU/Linux 9.5 (stretch) Release: 9.5 Codename: stretch
kernel
tingo@z30b:~$ uname -a Linux z30b 4.9.0-7-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.110-3+deb9u2 (2018-08-13) x86_64 GNU/Linux
ok.
2018-10-15:sda6 - started the installer, and installed Debian 9.5. I had to twiddle a bit with the installer, at first it would like to use my Fedora swap LV for swapping in Debian as well. Fixed that. After the install, the machine booted straight into Debian's grub. I used efibootmgr to fix the bootorder, now we're back to rEFInd again. wireless - I enabled non-free (and contrib) repositories in /etc/apt/souces.list and installed the firmware-iwlwifi package, a reboot the the wireless network works. Good.
2018-10-15: because I couldn't convince the Debian installer (before my patience ran out) to create an extra PV, VG and LVs for Debian, I cheated and used Fedora. First I created a physical partition /dev/sda6 with gparted. It look like this in parted
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo parted /dev/sda print Model: ATA Samsung SSD 850 (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 250GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Disk Flags: Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 20.5kB 105MB 105MB fat16 EFI System Partition boot, esp 2 105MB 64.5GB 64.4GB 3 64.5GB 68.8GB 4295MB 4 68.8GB 69.3GB 524MB ext4 5 69.3GB 142GB 72.8GB lvm 6 142GB 200GB 58.0GB lvm
Next up pvcreate
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo pvcreate /dev/sda6 Physical volume "/dev/sda6" successfully created.
doesn't look like anything changed (but it probably didn't hurt)
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo pvs PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree /dev/sda5 fedora lvm2 a-- <67.82g 4.00m /dev/sda6 lvm2 --- 54.00g 54.00g
vgcreate
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo vgcreate debian /dev/sda6 Volume group "debian" successfully created
how many VGs?
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo vgs VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree debian 1 0 0 wz--n- <54.00g <54.00g fedora 1 2 0 wz--n- <67.82g 4.00m
good. Now, LVs
root LV
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo lvcreate --name d_root --size 50g debian Logical volume "d_root" created.
swap LV
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo lvcreate --name d_swap --size 4g debian Volume group "debian" has insufficient free space (1023 extents): 1024 required.
ok, by extents then
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo lvcreate --name d_swap --extents 1023 debian Logical volume "d_swap" created.
how does it look?
[tingo@localhost ~]$ sudo lvs LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Meta% Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert d_root debian -wi-a----- 50.00g d_swap debian -wi-a----- <4.00g root fedora -wi-ao---- 60.00g swap fedora -wi-ao---- 7.81g
looks good.
2018-10-15: I booted Debian 9.5.0 live off a usb stick. Discovery: wireless doesn't work. Probably non-free drivers. connected an Ethernet cable, installed 'lshw' and tested:
user@debian:~$ sudo lshw -class network -short H/W path Device Class Description ============================================================== /0/100/19 enp0s25 network Ethernet Connection (3) I218-V /0/100/1c.2/0 network Wireless 3160
ok, so I need drivers for Wireless 3160. That is the iwlwifi package. and firmware-iwlwifi as well. You need to enable the non-free repository.
