Package: usb-discover
Version: 0.02 (not installed)
Severity: important
Tags: patch
If /lib/debian-installer.d/S45usb-linux is run on a system without PCI,
it does an "exit 0":
if [ ! -e /proc/bus/pci/devices ]; then
# PCI not present. quit
exit 0
fi
However, since this script is sourced from /sbin/debian-installer, not
executed in its own right, this makes /sbin/debian-installer exit, get
respawned by exit and then everything begins from scratch (making the
whole installation system useless since it never reaches main-menu).
Fixing this should be trivial, just remove the exit and change the if
(negating the test) to
if [ -e /proc/bus/pci/devices ]; then
(put entire rest of script here)
fi
This affects all non-PCI systems, including the system bochs attempts to
emulate, making testing with bochs impossible. :-)
