The Debian Installer team[1] is pleased to announce the first alpha
release of the installer for Debian 11 "Bullseye".
It's high time we started doing this: many components were updated,
replacing “CD”/“CD-ROM” with “installation media”. Such changes are
not documented individually below. That also explains why many
languages are not fully translated in this alpha release.
Improvements in this release
============================
* apt-setup:
- Update generation of apt sources lines for security: renamed
from <dist>/updates to <dist>-security starting with bullseye
(#935540, #942238).
- Fix preseeding for local repositories by adding the key(s) in
the /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d directory (#851774, #928931).
* base-installer:
- Stop installing the apt-transport-https transitional package.
* brltty:
- Stop creating my-at-spi-dbus-bus.desktop in user profile,
at-spi2-core now always start the at-spi bus.
* choose-mirror:
- Update Mirrors.masterlist.
- Use "deb.debian.org" as default hostname for custom HTTP mirror.
* console-setup:
- Fix internationalization issues (#924657).
* debian-installer:
- Target Bullseye!
- Allow to have several spaces around [] qualifiers in
sources.list entries.
- Restore 'd' shortcut for the dark theme. 'c' cannot work in grub
(#935545).
- Set gfxpayload=keep in submenus too, to fix unreadable fonts on
HiDPI displays in netboot images booted with EFI (#935546).
- Convert some documentation to DocBook XML 4.5 (#907970).
* finish-install:
- Stop creating my-at-spi-dbus-bus.desktop in user profile,
at-spi2-core now always start the at-spi bus.
* fonts-sil-abyssinica:
- Do not strip the font of Latin characters for the installer.
* grub2:
- Add probe module to signed UEFI images (#936082).
* netcfg:
- Reword template since some DHCP clients are no longer available.
* parted:
- Cherry-pick upstream patch to remove output to stdout from affs
that confused the installer (#941777).
* partman-crypto:
- Install cryptsetup-initramfs instead of cryptsetup (#930228).
Hardware support changes
========================
* debian-installer:
- Remove images for QNAP TS-11x/TS-21x/HS-21x, QNAP TS-41x/TS-42x
and HP Media Vault mv2120 due to size problems with the Linux
kernel.
- ARM: sunxi: Add support for Olimex A20-OLinuXino-Lime2-eMMC.
- Tweak mini.iso generation on arm so EFI netboot will work.
* hw-detect:
- Install virtualization related packages when virtualization is
detected (#782287).
* linux:
- [arm64] udeb: Add i2c-rk3x to i2c-modules.
- [arm64,armhf] udeb: Add rockchip-io-domain to kernel-image.
- udeb: Add atmel_mxt_ts to input-modules.
- udeb: input-modules: Add OLPC AP-SP keyboard.
- [arm64] udeb: Add pl330 to kernel-image.

- udeb: Add thermal_sys to kernel-image.
- udeb: Add virtio-gpu to get graphical output in VM instances.
- [x86] udeb: Move rfkill to new rfkill-modules package to avoid
duplication.
- [arm] Backport DTB support for Rasperry Pi Compute Module 3.
- [arm64] Backport DTB support for Rasperry Pi Compute Module 3.
