Bug#165550: boot-floppies: retrying installation of the base-system fails



Package: boot-floppies
Version: N/A; reported 2002-10-20
Severity: important

it happens rarely, but the base install does fail on occasion. in that
case, the installer tells me i can retry the installation by
re-selecting that item in the menu. however, the retry will fail as
soon as it tries to reinstall a package because it's already
installed. can dpkg be called with --force-overwrite?
