This bug also affect the daily built installation cd if you install in
gui mode.
How to reproduce:
1. Boot the installer by writing "installgui" at the boot prompt
2. do the installation
3. select a task that include a package that use update-initd.
i choose fileserver, since that includes samba
4. the step "select and install software" fails
here is the relevant syslog part
