Package: boot-floppies Version: N/A; reported 2002-02-14 Severity: important
Installation on a laptop, disconnected to the network (but configuring the network interface properly), freezes at the end of the base installation system with the message "Successfully completed" Looking into the process table shows up to eximp processes, one with '-Mc' options and one with '-oem -oi -f <>' options. Killing this processes makes the base installation finish properly and continue with the next step (Configure boot/Reboot/boot floppy). Why is exim running after installation of the base system? Could it freeze because it's trying to send an email somewhere (even in the local system) and the system is not physically connected to the network. If this issue happens in other systems it might render the installation unsuccesful. The base system will be installed but lilo won't so the Linux system will not startup unless booting with "rescue root=/dev/hdXXX" the CDroms.
