Package: partman Version: Wheezy Daily Build loaded 13.1.2013 Severity: grave Tags: d-i Justification: renders package unusable
Starting up Wheezy Daily Build dated 13.1.2013 on a new AMD 990X based computer had the installation always stopping at 47% when reading the disks. Tried a lot of things around the bios settings like UEFI, comaptibility mode, ..... The console Alt-F4 shows "partman-lvm: no volume groups found" as last message. Also repeatable on a one year old Wheezy copy and on a Squeeze DVD. Final solution was to remove the usb key connected to the PC which was used to load the firmware for the ethernet controller directly after loading the firmware. This is a situation which any user may get trapped in, especially since the adapters requireing firmware do increase in number. I think the partitioner must be able to cope with usb keys around.
