Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: debian-installer
About 30% of the time (over hundreds of installations) when I install
Ubuntu 7.04 Server into an SMP VMware VM (using
ubuntu-7.04-server-i386.iso, checked against the latest MD5SUMS) I get a
hang during the installation process at 77% of the way through
"Configuring popularity-contest" I broke out into a shell, chrooted into
the install, and using pstree and gdb discovered the following:
...
perl taskel --new-install [ wait()ing for child ]
perl debconf/frontend [ blocked on read() ]
perl debconf-apt-progress [ blocked on read() ]
apt-get [ exited, zombie ]
This looks a lot like debian bug 425397.
I'll try to reproduce with DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 warn to confirm.
