Package: debian-installer Version: Weekly build 20240916-09:57 Severity: important Tags: d-i X-Debbugs-Cc: charlescur...@charlescurley.com
Dear Maintainer, I pulled in the latest weekly build. I then went to install "Debian GNU/Linux testing "Trixie" - Official Snapshot amd64 NETINST with firmware 20240916-09:57" on a virtual amd64 qemu machine. The initial menu came up, and I simply hit the first option. A message of some sort appeared briefly, but scrolled away so fast I was unable to read it. I then had a blank screen with the error message "E: Unimplemented function". None of the CTL-ALT-F keys worked, and I could see no way to examine any log files. The installer is provided via an ISO image which appears to be a CD-ROM to the virtual machine. There is plenty of virtual RAM (3072 MiB) and disk space (7.0 GiB). A USB stick provides a preseed file and other goodies. The boot process never got far enough for the USB stick to matter. Using an installation from an earlier weekly build (20240909-03:16), I mounted the image, and ran md5sum on the md5sum.txt file. This reported no errors. Digital signatures and SHA[512|256]sums all checked out at download time, and the checksums just now. Previous weekly releases have worked just fine on this virtual machine, up to and including 20240909-03:16. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.7 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable'), (100, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-25-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled -- no debconf information
