Package: main-menu Version: 1.22 Severity: serious It appears that main-menu_1.22 causes an incomplete installation on the Linksys NSLU2.
Martin Michlmayr reported an unusual installation order on the NSLU2 [1]. The installer image used for that test used main-menu_1.21. Based on the discussion in the thread, main-menu_1.22 was uploaded, but now the installer fails to run flash-kernel-installer. As a result, the system fails to boot, because the kernel and initrd are not written to the system flash. Also, clock-setup is not run during the installation and localechooser is out of order and left unconfigured. The order of the installation was extracted from the installer /var/log/syslog and is shown below. $ grep 'Menu item' syslog Oct 27 05:18:53 main-menu[1161]: INFO: Menu item 'kbd-chooser' selected Oct 27 05:18:54 main-menu[1161]: INFO: Menu item 'ethdetect' selected Oct 27 05:19:10 main-menu[1161]: INFO: Menu item 'netcfg' selected Oct 27 05:19:12 main-menu[1161]: INFO: Menu item 'network-console' selected Oct 27 05:20:54 main-menu[2481]: INFO: Menu item 'choose-mirror' selected Oct 27 05:21:23 main-menu[2481]: INFO: Menu item 'download-installer' selected Oct 27 05:22:59 main-menu[2481]: INFO: Menu item 'bootstrap-base' selected Oct 27 06:19:07 main-menu[2481]: INFO: Menu item 'user-setup-udeb' selected Oct 27 06:19:32 main-menu[2481]: INFO: Menu item 'apt-setup-udeb' selected Oct 27 06:20:36 main-menu[2481]: INFO: Menu item 'pkgsel' selected Oct 27 06:56:31 main-menu[2481]: INFO: Menu item 'nobootloader' selected Oct 27 06:56:46 main-menu[2481]: INFO: Menu item 'finish-install' selected Oct 27 06:58:58 main-menu[25048]: INFO: Menu item 'localechooser' selected Oct 27 06:58:59 main-menu[25048]: INFO: Menu item 'localechooser' succeeded but requested to be left unconfigured.
