Package: debian-installer
Version: 20110106+b1
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i
Installing Squeeze 64-bit graphical netinst through eth0.
I changed my physical location just before the "Popularity contest" page
without turning off the computer.
I ran the "Network configuration" step again, and it said "Autoconfiguration is
successful", and in the log on console 4 I could see that DHCP went OK.
However, when installing packages APT said in console 4 "Temporary failure in
resolving <whichever mirror>", even if I tried very different mirrors.
At the same time, "wget http://google.com && cat index.html" could pull down
the frontpage of that website without any problem, so I assume that the network
was indeed configured and working.
Impact: I had to restart the whole installation process.

Hi,
thank you for submitting bug reports concering debian-installer, much
appreciated.
I read through all the bugs mentioned here (and I'm sure they were read by
several people at the time they were submitted) and am closing them now as/if
- they (finally) indicated success and/or
- I know from first hand experience that the functionality is working in
Wheezy and/or
- they only contained very little information and/or
- they contained user errors and/or
- they have been from a development phase where things were not stable and/or
- they are very old and/or
- they are wishlist but rather special + exotic and not have been acted on for
years. (See http://blog.liw.fi/posts/wishlist-bugs/ why it's often useful to
close wishlist bugs.)
If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply (it's easy to reopen and I'll
do if requested) or just file a new one - and that's often better, as the bug
log will be clearer and shorter and not contain cruft.
cheers,
Holger
