I haven't checked what information hw-probe submits, but it definitely should not include hostname and LVM volume names, regardless of when the submission happens. IIRC it removes serial numbers so it should also be removing other private information. > Perhaps 'hw-probe -probe -upload' is a good setup to use for install > time reporting? That is what I propose indeed, but we should review it first. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
