The first time I did my installation, I had the same problem (using
sarge-i386-netinst.iso (02-Mar-2004) from http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/
testing/daily/i386/current/).
Don't know if I can reproduce it but here is roughly what happenend.
- I made a mistake installing grub, so broke of installation to do it again.
- After breaking off, was first asked to select PRIORITY for debconf, selected
MEDIUM.
- Reinstalled grub, finished installation and reboot.
- After reboot I was presented the menu for base-config and went through all
options manually.
- When configuring apt-sources, I added CD-ROM, selected http source, and
manually edited sources to exclude default http source and include local http
package repository.
- I choose not to select any packages. If I remember correctly, only
popularity-contest was installed.
After that I got into the same loop. When I choose 'Finish configuring the
base system', I would see the 'configuring ...' status message, but after
that the menu would be shown again.
Hope this helps. I can try to reproduce if you like.
