Control: tag -1 - d-i Hi David,
David H. Gutteridge <dhgutteri...@sympatico.ca> (2017-06-18): > I encountered a reproducible kernel panic during the disk encryption > process where the disk is first overwritten with random data.

It'd be nice to share it please. > The GUI installer was unusable as the pointer from trackpad wouldn't > work properly, it constantly jumped around the screen at the slightest > touch.

We only have a couple of drivers in the installer, that might explain the difference here. > (Sorry about the delayed report, I simply haven't had time to get > around to it until now.

(No worries, it's still nice to have reports coming in, even for earlier images.) KiBi.
