Hello,

I've been playing with the generic + minimal package selection target
for i486, both in the last stable release and the current version in
trunk.

When I boot the stable-version install CD, and run Stone, everything
seems fine. I get past selecting partitions, and the second screen
gives me the following options, as I'd expect:

1 Mount Options:
2 Source Device: /dev/cdrom
3 Mountpoint: /mnt/source
4 Config ID: Automatically choose first

5 6.0-stable-generic-x86-i486

6 Start gasgui Package Manager (recommended)
7 Start gastone Package Manager (minimal)

I select gasgui, and the install continues normally.

When I boot the install disc I build from trunk, the first Stone
screen seems normal, but the second screen is missing the target
option:

1 Mount Options:
2 Source Device: /dev/cdrom
3 Mountpoint: /mnt/source
4 Config ID: Automatically choose first


5 Start gasgui Package Manager (recommended)
6 Start gastone Package Manager (minimal)

(Note that there are *two* blank lines between the Config ID option
and the gasgui option, leading me to believe that there is supposed to
be something between those blank lines.)

When I select gasgui, Stone abruptly asks me if I want to reboot. If I
select no, I am dumped to the terminal. No install actually takes
place.

Is anyone else seeing a similar problem?

FWIW, this is inside Qemu 0.9.1 (my own build). I'm happy to provide
any logs anyone wants to see.
Wired, guess I have to try it as well (I use Qemu for testing, likewise).

The STONE stuff are regular shells scripts you can browse and annotate
with debug logging, e.g:

 /etc/stone.d/mod_install.sh

I think the default install target has some minimal vi and emacs a-like
editor to do so even in the running install environment.

(patches welcome)
