Hi arm people,
I just noticed this outdated information on
https://d-i.debian.org/manual/en.arm64/ch05s01.html:
<<<<<<< snip <<<<<<<<<<
5.1. Booting the Installer on 64-bit ARM
[Note] Note
For information on how to boot the graphical installer, see Section 5.1.6, “The Graphical Installer”.
5.1.1. Console configuration
The graphical installer is not enabled on the arm64 debian-installer images for stretch so the serial console is used
snap >>>>>>>>>>>>>
So, it states information about booting the graphical installer, but in the next sentence
I read that the graphical installer is not enabled (for stretch; yes, that
was true some day).
Maybe someone could look at that page, if there are some more outdated
infos there?
At the very least, we should change it similar to this:
- The graphical installer is not enabled on the arm64 debian-installer images
- for stretch so the serial console is used.
+ The graphical installer is (experimentally) enabled on the arm64 &d-i; images,
+ but on some devices you may still have to use the serial console.
Comments?
