It is not just vmware being slow either. set -x shows it is in decode_recipe. It gets the ram size, and then apparently $1 is not set, so the cat without an argument hangs. decode_recipe is being called without a recipe name to decode. partman-auto/choose_recipe is somehow set to "". I did not go back further. Either this is somehow triggered by the vmware environment, or it is fixed in version 7 of partman-auto. Version 7 will be in tonight's CD images, so we can see then. -- see shy jo
