I tried both the rc1 debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso and the daily build as of a few days ago. Same result. >The version we would like to see tested at this moment is: >- RC1, which you can download from: >hd-media image=A0: >http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-i386/current/i= >mages/hd-media/ >netinst ISO: >http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/lenny_di_rc1/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i= >386-netinst.iso >- Daily builds: >hd-media: http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/hd-media/ >netinst ISO: >http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-c= >d/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso Ok, I downloaded these 4 again. It turns out that the daily build iso was the exact same I had tried last. The boot.imb.gz was different so I re-made the usb stick "disk" with the one in the daily build link above and the daily build iso. So the backtrace below applies to the daily builds above. >Then we could probably narrow the problem by using the expert >mode....which will interrupt some steps more often and make the exact >moment the problem happens more easy to spot. Actually, I was able to capture the problem in non-expert mode. I figure the least amount of changes made in the flow of execution of the program, the easier it would be to duplicate the problem. I chose the defaults in the language selection, locale, etc... >Also, when you've spotted the moment where the installer hangs, please >retry the installation and, just before the hang happens, try >switching to console 4 (Alt+F4) and look at what's displayed there... Ok, it happens immediately after the identifying network hardware screen. So soon after in fact that I thought I would have no time to swtich to console 4, but quick fingers did it and quite a bit scrolled off the screen, ending in this: [ 23.523397] EAX: ffffffff EBX: df6f0000 ECX: ffffffff EDX: df413440 [ 23.523397] ESI: df6f0000 EDI: 00000000 EBP: ffffffff ESP: df449f84 [ 23.523397] DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 0000 GS: 0000 SS: 0068 [ 23.523397] Process events/0 (pid: 5, ti=df448000 task=df43e860 task.ti=df448000) [ 23.523397] Stack: c025d42d df6f0000 00000002 c025830e df413440 c0356f00 c025833e 00000000 [ 23.523397] c025835b c012716d df413440 c01276e9 df413448 c0127794 00000000 df43e860 [ 23.523397] c012990b df449fc8 df449fc8 df413440 00000000 c0129763 c012972d 00000000 [ 23.523397] Call Trace: [ 23.523397] [<c025d42d>] dev_deactivate+0x1e/0xbd [ 23.523397] [<c025830e>] __linkwatch_run_queue+0x118/0x148 [ 23.523397] [<c025833e>] linkwatch_event+0x0/0x22 [ 23.523397] [<c025835b>] linkwatch_event+0x1d/0x22 [ 23.523397] [<c012716d>] run_workqueue+0x75/0xee [ 23.523397] [<c01276e9>] worker_thread+0x0/0xb5 [ 23.523397] [<c0127794>] worker_thread+0xab/0xb5 [ 23.523397] [<c012990b>] autoremove_wake_function=0x0/0x2d [ 23.523397] [<c0129763>] kthread+0x36/0x5b [ 23.523397] [<c012972d>] kthread+0x0/0x5b [ 23.523397] [<c0104937>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 [ 23.523397] ======================= [ 23.523397] Code: ff 42 50 5b c3 89 c1 8d 90 80 00 00 00 89 12 8d 81 a4 00 00 00 89 52 04 c7 42 08 00 00 00 00 83 c2 0c 39 c2 75 e7 31 c0 c3 89 c1 <8b> 40 10 8b 50 30 85 d2 74 04 89 c8 ff d2 c3 53 89 c3 e8 a8 af [ 23.523397] EIP: [<c025d074>] qdisc_reset+0x2/0x11 SS:ESP 0068:df449f84 [ 23.915430] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatall exception in interrupt Of course, the machine is now totally frozen, so no scrolling back.
