Package: installation-reports
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I'm trying to install Debian 9 using:
debian-live-9.0.1-amd64-kde.iso
I downloaded it from:
https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/debian-live-9.0.1-amd64-kde.iso
and already checked the md5sum. Everything seems to be OK in Live mode but
when I try to install
(both graphical and in text mode) I can't go forward after configuring the
network, the reason seems
to be that this version of the installer doesn't allow to continue without
using a mirror, if I ignore this
step (Choose a mirror of the Debian archive) and go with the next one (Set
up users and passwords)
everything goes fine but "Install the system" fails with this error:
Debootstrap error
Failed to determine the codename for the release.
Maybe I get this error because I can't access internet in that host, but I
will use a local mirror later.
Now I can't use any mirror and I can't install at least the live system, I
mean, I think it's usefull at least
to replicate the live system with the desktop environment I want to use.
Thanks for your time.

And thank you for filing these installation bug reports, they have been very
useful at the time they were filed!
If you know, that the issue you reported (and gets closed here) is still
existing
in recent installation images, please file a new report for that!
