That is not the full command and does not show us which package is being installed at the point of the hang. Can you check in /proc/<PID>/cmdline what the full command line is for the last 4 or 5 running processes? > d-i mirror/country string enter information manually > d-i mirror/http/hostname string 192.168.10.1 > d-i mirror/http/directory string /etch_debian Does the hang also occur if you use an official mirror? > d-i pkgsel/include string afio build-essential byacc bzip2 chkrootkit > dmalloc dosfstools dump eject ethtool expat fileutils flip ftp hdparm [long list of packages] Does the hang also occur without these additional packages? What does the syslog show is being done at the point of the hang? I suspect that some package that has had a security update is now prompting on stdout/stdin, which is not allowed in the installer. The package should be using debconf. Cheers, FJP -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
