Hi all,

Recently i've been working on the images of gnuinos ascii. I've had
issues related with the mouse and the keyboard because they didn't work
neither during live sessions nor after a hard disk installation. At
first i thought it was due to my packaging of linux-libre, but i
extracted the filesystem.squashfs taken from an official image of
devuan-desktop, replaced the stock kernel by linux-libre and built the
iso image again to see what was going on. And it worked. Still not sure
about the origin of this issue, but it might be related with the
presence of some concrete package (due to the use of policykit instead
of elogind, or somesuch?). The fact is that replacing the list of the
base and extra packages defined in the config file of the blend in the
live-sdk, the problem has been solved.

I've also had problems with grub-installer-udeb, and it was due to wrong
permissions in the iso image: debian-installer couldn't extract the
content of the pool/main/g/grub2 folder... how much time wasted!

Here you are the resulting image generated by the live-sdk, including
debian-installer:

http://gnuinos.org/gnuinos%20ascii/

This is the first image of gnuinos using a complete apt repository built
with amprolla. The sources.list should be as follows:

deb http://packages.gnuinos.org/merged/ ascii main
deb-src http://packages.gnuinos.org/merged/ ascii main

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-security main
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-security main

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-updates main
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-updates main

All the packages related with the kernel pulled from debian.org
(including its modules for debian-installer) have been removed from the
repository by adding some extra code to amprolla, being them replaced by
linux-libre-4.9, and shortly by 4.18 for sure.

Thanks for your attention, and merry christmas to all of you :)

Aitor.
