Dear Maintainer,
During an new installation of wheezy on an SGI O2 the partitioning
step failed.
I was using the netboot image from /debian/dists/wheezy/main/installer-mips/
current/images/r5k-ip32, dating from 14th o
offending file is /var/lib/dpkg/info/partitioner.postinst, which
looks like a binary, not like a shell script. After deleting this file,
installation went just fine, minus some debris on the screen,

stuff, which will go on
for a while because of my lousy ISDN-line (I am working on it, I swear!),
but it really looks promising so far.
I'll post a summary as soon as the install finishes and I have time to get
back to the box, which won't be before tomorrow evening,
thanks for the help a
ething missing in the logs,
suggesting that it had been pulled without the proxy being used? Or is
it expected behaviour as I installed from the daily build of December 1st?
TIA,
Uli

cessful at all.
I've tried:
`boot cdrom`
`boot cdrom \install\prep\vmlinuz-prep.initrd`
But nothing worked, I only got the error message: "The attempt to load
a boot image failed". Has this worked for anyone else before on this
kind of hardware?

Either, there are a lot of ISO-images updated right now, or there's something
fishy. Does somebody have an account on that box and/or knows who can take
a look?

I suspect this is the same for the 20061231-1 build, as it has almost the

the created partition layout was fine and the install onto it was successful.
I would rate this bug at least as annoying, as it prevents manual
partitioning from scratch.
