Bug#705971: debian-installer hangs when tty console in use (console-setup)

2013-04-23 Thread Stefano Forli

> What do you mean by "a TTY console during the installation"? Lowering the severity anyway as I don't think this is a bug (if one) that affects all installs. With all the install problems reports? I would certainly expect having to open up a shell to fix things to install MORE THAN EVER.
