Package: debian-installer
Version: 20101025
Severity: normal
When asked to enter the root password, I chose 'Go back' to be able
to load the network-console. The menu item 'Download installer
components' is present, but selecting it eventually just causes d-i
to ask me for the root password — confusing unless you know what's
going on.
I suggest that the menu item be hidden if the debconf priority is
'high' and only shown if it's set to 'medium'. Or maybe the
installer components could be temporarily lowered from high to
medium if selected explicitly?

Hi,
thank you for submitting bug reports concering debian-installer, much
appreciated.
I read through all the bugs mentioned here (and I'm sure they were read by
several people at the time they were submitted) and am closing them now as/if
- they (finally) indicated success and/or
- I know from first hand experience that the functionality is working in
Wheezy and/or
- they only contained very little information and/or
- they contained user errors and/or
- they have been from a development phase where things were not stable and/or
- they are very old and/or
- they are wishlist but rather special + exotic and not have been acted on for
years. (See http://blog.liw.fi/posts/wishlist-bugs/ why it's often useful to
close wishlist bugs.)
If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply (it's easy to reopen and I'll
do if requested) or just file a new one - and that's often better, as the bug
log will be clearer and shorter and not contain cruft.
cheers,
Holger
