Comments/Problems:
Network configuration seemed to use DHCP without issue, but consistently failed to retrieve information from network hosts. Other hosts on the same subnet are obtaining DHCP leases without issue and accessing the Internet without issue. The Ethernet cable was unplugged to force the failure of DHCP and allow manual configuration (why is it no longer an option?). Upon using manual network configuration, downloads completed without issue.
The installation is failing in the same place repeatedly. It is during package configuration after base system installation, and the return value is 127. The contents of debootstrap.log contain the following:
dpkg error processing at (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured: dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of exim4: ... Setting up tasksel (140) ... Errors were encountered while processing: libopencdk8 libgnutls7 exim4-daemon-light mailx at exim4 /usr/sbin/debootstrap: 1: sleep: not found
