Bug#38401: boot-floppies: dbootstrap's error messages need to be more verbose



Package: boot-floppies
Version: N/A
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

Last week, when I tried to install a new system, something went wrong
with the installation. When the system tried to unpack the device drivers,
unpacking failed and all error message I got was "installing device drivers
floppy failed". Surely the error could be described a little more accurate.
I still don't know if the file wasn't found, or a checksum failed while
reading, writing failed due to some obscure reasons.

This should be improved.

Greetings
Marc
