Package: boot-floppies Version: 3.0.16 Severity: serious Installation hangs during install of essential packages. tty4 shows: Setting up whiptail (0.50.17-7) ... Setting up sysvinit (2.83-1) ... Creating /dev/initctl tty2 allows keyboard input but never offers a shell. This appears to be the same as #116092 which was supposed to be fixed bu this version of boot-floppies
