Nice that you found that. And you are correct: that is the root of the problem. The first relevant error in your syslog is: Apr 26 20:21:26 base-installer: Using CD-ROM mount point /cdrom/ Apr 26 20:21:26 base-installer: Unmounting CD-ROM Apr 26 20:21:26 base-installer: Waiting for disc... Apr 26 20:21:26 base-installer: Please insert a Disc in the drive and press enter Apr 26 20:21:26 base-installer: Mounting CD-ROM... Apr 26 20:21:26 base-installer: E: Failed to mount the cdrom. Apr 26 20:21:26 base-installer: error: error while running apt-cdrom I have patches ready to fix all the errors and I will commit and upload them later today. However, I am still very much confused as to _why_ the mount fails. Do you think you could get an strace for it? The rough procedure to get the strace would be something like this: - proceed with the installation until the kernel installation error - switch to a debug shell - chroot /target - wget <strace package, for example [1]> - dpkg -i strace_4.5.15-1.2_i386.deb - strace -f -o apt-cdrom.strace apt-cdrom add </dev/null And then mail the apt-cdrom.strace file to this bug report (gzipped!).
