It's trying to talk to the network. It'll finish eventually if you leave
it there. (This is of course still a bug, though.)

** Description changed:

  This bug can only be replicated on recent Acer Desktops. The installer
  successfully completes the installation on other system setups.
  
  Run conditions:
  
  * Using gutsy gibbon's daily alternate cd image (downloaded yesterday 1st 
October 2007)
  * Recent Acer Desktop PC.(Intel dual core 2.0GHz, 512MB RAM, 80GB SATA HD, 
DVD/CD-RW Drive)
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  
  * Start the text-based installer.
  * Add normal setup information and manually setup partitions.
  * Continue with the prompts until the installer completes configuring and 
installing all the default packages in the CD.
  
  Expected Result:
  
  * The installer continues to the next step which is installing GRUB.
  
  Observed Result:
  
  * The installer appears none responsive and waits indefinitely when done
  installing the last package (which is "tomboy").
  
- Probable root cause:
- 
- * The Hard-disk drive or DVD/CD-RW drive may have entered into some sort
- of power-conserving sleep mode and must be awakened before requesting
- further data?
- 
  Workaround:
  
  * Restart the PC and manually install GRUB.
  
  Attachments:
  
  * dmesg dump
  * syslog dump

** Changed in: pkgsel (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: debian-installer => pkgsel
