That should be relatively simple to fix. But it does indicate that we can expect similar minor fallout in other places (and for other architectures). In general I guess that if you want to work on implementing something like this, you should be prepared to fix such minor fallout as well. Just filing bugs is unlikely to get things fixed. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Bug#409905: Unresponsive ftp server freezes install
This also happens when a direct http connection is dropped in the firewall und no proxy was entered. I think it will be the same if a default gateway is present but no connection to the internet is accessible. I had to kill the wget processes, which leads to error messages that the installation did not succeed. Please include an abort button to cleanly go back to the mirror and proxy configuration.

Multiple SATA disks, two OSs and booting problem
Hi, I have got motherboard that has support for four (4) SATA devices. I have installed Debian 4.0r2 AMD64 on filesystem witch has been build on top of LVM system. LVM is on top of software-raid1 device md0 with two SAMSUNG SP1614C (SATA) disks. Everything works well. But if I connect two other disks (SATA2), there is volume group (named VG1) on those disks and KnoppMyth OS installed on one partition of the other disk, booting into Debian fails. Further investigated: If I connect either of the two KnoppMyth VG1 disks Debian boots well. And while all disks connected booting into KnoppMyth goes well. Here is the output: kinit: name_to_dev_t(/dev/mapper/VG0-LV--swap) = dm-8(253,8) kinit: trying to resume from /dev/mapper/VG0-LV--swap Attempting manual resume kinit: No resume image, doing normal boot... resume: libgcrypt version 1.2.3 resume: Could not read the image Done. kjournald starting.

Boot the installer (from a CD image) using installgui and you'll see Malayalam listed.

I have installed Debian 4.0r2 AMD64 on filesystem witch has been build on top of LVM system. LVM is on top of software-raid1 device md0 with two SAMSUNG SP1614C (SATA) disks. Everything works well. But if I connect two other disks (SATA2), there is volume group (named VG1) on those disks and KnoppMyth OS installed on one partition of the other disk, booting into Debian fails. Further investigated: If I connect either of the two KnoppMyth VG1 disks Debian boots well. And while all disks connected booting into KnoppMyth goes well.

Please, go in your installed system and use the installation-report script to send us a full installation report, that way we can get more information about how things went there. I'm not near the system for the next couple of days but will do that when I get back - thanks for pointing that out. I've checked base-installer code and it has code to handle hppa smp machines. Probably 2.6.22 had a problem to enable your second processor and then this might be fixed once we go to 2.6.24. Well, historically, hppa has had problems with SMP kernels. AFAIK, the worst of those have been fixed and SMP seems (in general) stable. Filling a full installation report will allow us to check if this code has issues or if it wasn't properly detected. ok - will do.
