--- Begin Message ---Package: e2fsprogs Version: 1.42.12-1.1 Severity: normal File: /sbin/mke2fs Tags: d-i Dear Maintainer, *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? Installation of Jessie 8.0.0 or 8.1.0 on a server (from a USB key, using the debian-8.1.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso image). * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? After setting up the partitions in the installation process, formatting of the first partition (/dev/sdb1) failed (the procedure got stuck). Typing Ctrl-Alt-F2; mkfs.ext2 -m1 /dev/sdb1; Ctrl-Alt-F1 allowed to format, but the installation remained stuck. Rebooting, and skipping formating of /dev/sdb1 (using "keep data") allowed then to install. This happened on 3 different servers exhibiting Adaptec controllers. * What was the outcome of this action? * What outcome did you expect instead? On two laptops, Lenovo T410s and Why! W650SZ-i7, this issue did not show up; everything worked fine. *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages e2fsprogs depends on: ii e2fslibs 1.42.12-1.1 ii libblkid1 2.25.2-6 ii libc6 2.19-18 ii libcomerr2 1.42.12-1.1 ii libss2 1.42.12-1.1 ii libuuid1 2.25.2-6 ii util-linux 2.25.2-6 e2fsprogs recommends no packages.
