Package: base-installer Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I hope i file this bug against the correct package. When installing debian using live iso, base-installer failed while copying live system with error message tar no space left on the device. This cause the installation to fail. This seems to be similar to #748579. But i think it is not since i am using the original iso without netbootin. I am using debian-live-9.1.0-amd64-mate+nonfree.iso (the SHA1SUM has been checked OK). When booting the iso, i choose Debian Installer option on the boot menu (i did not go the live desktop). This issue did not exist on the previous version of the live iso (debian-live-9.0.1-amd64-mate+nonfree.iso). I tested this a couple of times on VirtualBox and I was able to reproduce the issue every time (sorry, i do not have any spare PC to test it on real hardware). Please see the following screenshot for more details. https://pasteboard.co/GCNcTdW.png https://pasteboard.co/GCNd67b.png Hopefully, this bug can be fixed soon because it makes it impossible to install debian from live iso. Thank you. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
