severity 232050 grave
tag 232050 patch
thanks
prep-menu is run after pkgsel. It resets base-installer/main-menu
to the first item. This causes base-config to return to the time
zone question. I commented out this set (after prep-menu is run
for the first time) and it stopped looping.
The attached, untested patch should fix the problem.
