#232842 — netboot debian-installer kernel too old

Message-ID<BRC8i-ef-11@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi,

installing bullseye via network fails since the (directory named)
_current_ debian-installer at

http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/bullseye/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/debian-installer/amd64/linux

is a kernel 5.9.0-4-amd64:

# file linux
linux: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 5.9.0-4-amd64
(debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) #1 SMP Debian 5.9.11-1 (2020-11-27),
RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x5, Normal VGA

... which does not match the more recent kernel (modules) in

http://ftp.debian.org:80/debian/dists/bullseye/main/debian-installer/binary-amd64/Packages.xz
.

which rather fit kernel-image-5.10.0-3-amd64.

The installation fails after 'download-installer' succeeded:

"WARNNG **: no packages matching running kernel 5.9.0-4-amd64 in archive"


How to file this bug? Does this belong to the pseudo pakage ftp.debian.org ?

Kind regards,
Anhu

It will be fixed automatically as soon as the installer is 
(automatically?) rebuilt with the current kernel version in bullseye.

This is a recurring issue with the installers based on testing and 
unstable and likely very difficult to fix.

Kind regards,
Andrei
