Comments/Problems:

(1) Advanced Options -> Expert Install

(2) The installer CD passed the "Check the CD-ROM(S) integrity" test
on the installer menu.

(3) Shortly after the installer inquires concerning users authorized
to start the X server, etc., the Red Screen of Death appears.
Switching terminals via Alt-F4, the following messages can be seen:

...In-target: Errors were encountered while processing:
...In-target: fuse
...main-menu[281]WARNING **: Configuring 'pkgsel' failed with error code 1
...main-menu[281]WARNING **: Menu item 'pkgsel' failed.

(4) The same abnormal termination was observed in an installation
attempt (yesterday) on an AMD64 system.  Subsequently, the AMD64
system was successfully installed using the AMD64 NETINST CD
[ jessie-DI-a1 Official snapshot amd64 NETINST 20140318-12:38 ].

 /var/log/syslog の内容を記載頂けると分かるかもしれません。
 別コンソール(大抵の場合はtty4で)で開けます。
 (切り替えはAlt+F4、かな?

 もう一つ、ダウンロードしたイメージは上記のdebian-7.5.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso
 ですかね?

Bug#746743: syslinux 6.x to unstable on 2014-05-17

2014-05-03 Thread Daniel Baumann
now that the last revision of syslinux left NEW i would like to upload
syslinux 6.x to unstable in two weeks (2104-04-17).

however, syslinux 6.x has a few incompatible changes:

  * upstream: with the addition of efi support, syslinux modules are
now stored in a different location, e.g:

  /usr/lib/syslinux/vesamenu.c32 ->
  /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/bios/vesamenu.c32

  * upstream: since syslinux 5.x, some bootloaders need additional
loader files (ldlinux.*) to be copied to the medium.

for syslinux/extlinux this is already handled automatically,
for the 'manual' bootloaders (isolinux/pxelinux), this needs to
be done manually.

  * upstream: since syslinux 5.x, modules have dependencies, e.g:

  using vesamenu.c32, you also need libutil.c32 and libcom32.c32

for more information, see:
http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Library_modules

  * debian: with the addition of efi support, syslinux bootloaders
are packaged separately, e.g.:

isolinux.bin is in isolinux, pxelinux is in pxelinux, etc.

packages re-using the syslinux bootloaders should depend on
these individual bootloader packages.

the following packages are affected, i've send patches accordingly:

  * debian-cd: #746746
  * debian-installer: #746743
  * ipxe: #746747
  * libguestfs: #746748
  * refit: #746749
  * unetbootin: #746751

  * live-build: will do myself
  * syslinux-themes-debian: is orphaned; will take care of that
