Package: boot-floppies Version: 3.0.18-2001-12-21 Severity: normal after having the base system installed and rebooted the system will continue with installing the "rest" of debian. I did this through a ppp-style install. Unfortunately the system was unable to detect that a ppp connection went down. I had to restart it manually through "pon". If this happens to a newby s/he will sweat blood to find out a) what went wrong and b) how to get the ppp connection back on. So I suggest either to give the system a means to find out whether the line's still up or to give the user a possibility to redial.
I'm tagging this report as normal not as wishlist, since I think that the install process should be as bullet proof as possible and since I think that connection loss while in ppp is not such an uncommon thing. *t -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux maladers 2.2.20 #1 Sun Nov 4 15:44:23 EST 2001 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
