Package: debian-installer Severity: normal Tags: d-i I booted today's sid_d-i build from a usb stick. At the language chooser, I chose the nice new Arabic choice, and then at countrychooser, it was at the full list of contries, and I realized I din't speak Arabic, and selected the back button. At this point, the installer enters a crash loop. I'm seeing it start the frame buffer in preparation for starting main-menu, over and over, only to have it crash before it ever displays any UI. Some experimentation and it looks like the problem is just with showing the current d-i main menu, localised to Arabic. I can reproduce the same problem by booting in expert mode, selecting Arabic, and pressing enter; when it tries to draw the main menu (same as it does when you go back from countrychooser), it must not like something, and it crashes. -- see shy jo
