Hello,

I downloaded debian-sid-hurd-amd64-NETINST-1.iso,

But the installer then tells me "Your installation media couldn't be
mounted. When installing from CD-ROM, this probably means that the disk was
not in the drive. If so you can insert it and try again."

Immediately before, I briefly see a message "/hurd/iso9660fs: Could not find
valid superblock".

Have you checked the md5 of the file, to make sure you didn't get
corruption?

I had not, also didn't see a md5sum

Ah, sorry, missed adding them.

BTW, you don't seem to be using the -enable-kvm option? You really want
it.

I've tried now with -smp2 -enable-kvm. Much faster. Thanks. I now get to the installation media mount issue much quicker. This time I used:

* Text install
* Language: English
* Location: Ireland
* Keyboard: German

Still get the same issue.

I've also tried the pseudo-graphical install choosing Germany/German. Same issue there. And just going with the default for everything (pseudo-graphical install, English, US). Same problem.

By contrast, the Debian GNU/Linux x86 bookworm installer, and the OpenBSD 7.8 installer work fine for when I use them in qemu.

Philipp
