** Description changed: + [Test Case] + 1) Add the following lines to your preseed file of your Ubuntu installation target: + + # Disable network configuration entirely.

In the log console you will find a segfault message + in the netcfg execution as mentioned above. + + Original Description + -------------------- + I have built a USB-Stick to install Ubuntu Server Precise Alpha 1 64 Bit based on the precise-alpha-1-amd64 ISO image. Installation works but the netcfg component segfaults! The installer screen shows an error. The 4th console shows: INFO: Menu item 'netcfg' selected INFO: Starting netcfg v.1.68ubuntu7 (built 2011-08-0004) WARNING **: Configuring 'netcfg' failed with error code 139 WARNING **: Menu item 'netcfg' failed. netcfg[14152]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f8cc8e82572 sp 00007fffd1413bb8 error 6 in libc-2.13.so[7f8cc8d58000+195000] The installation continues when choosing the next item on the menu. These are the options used for preseeding netcfg: d-i netcfg/enable boolean false d-i netcfg/dhcp_options select Do not configure the network at this time - d-i netcfg/dhcp_failed note + d-i netcfg/dhcp_failed note d-i netcfg/network-manager boolean false # netcfg will choose an interface that has link if possible. This makes it #d-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto #d-i netcfg/disable_dhcp boolean true #d-i netcfg/get_nameservers string 192.168.1.1 #d-i netcfg/get_ipaddress string 192.168.1.42 #d-i netcfg/get_netmask string 255.255.255.0 #d-i netcfg/get_gateway string 192.168.1.1 #d-i netcfg/confirm_static boolean true d-i netcfg/get_hostname string lb-new d-i netcfg/get_domain string unassigned-domain d-i netcfg/wireless_wep string - Any ideas?
