This seems to be because busybox wget doesn't write any progress output
to stderr for debootstrap to read; debootstrap interprets this as wget
failing to download, so it retries again and again.
Delving into the source of busybox-cvs 20030926-2.1, there are a whole
bunch of busybox config files, some of which have WGET_STATUSBAR and
some of which don't.
- config-deb and config-static both have it, but they aren't used for d-i
- config-net-udeb-* and config-udeb-i386 have the status bar disabled,
but AFAICT no binaries are ever built from them anyway
- config-udeb and config-udeb-linux have the status bar enabled
- config-udeb-linux-i386 has the status bar disabled for some reason;
this is the one that I noticed
The attached patch /should/ fix this, although I haven't tested it
thoroughly.
It also seems that busybox-cvs doesn't build properly; gcc choked on
fdisk.c:
util-linux/fdisk.c: In function `get_geometry':
util-linux/fdisk.c:4060: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer
The line in question doesn't seem to contain any kind of array
subscript, so I've no idea what's causing this.
