Bug#470423: debian-installer: CDROM drive lockup during multiple CD installation
Package: debian-installer
Version: As in current lenny i386 snapshot isos
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
A test installation was made using 5 CDs of the current Lenny snapshot.
The test machine was not connected to a network.
The installation process started well and cdset scanned the 5 disks.
When cdset was closed CD1 was asked for.
CD1 was then asked for a second time.
At this stage CD1 was asked for repeatedly when return was hit.
The CD could not be ejected by normal means.
A second tty was opened and the <eject> command worked.
The drive then became active, the CD reinserted and the installation was
completed.
