Bug#548791: Cannot install testing: Machine hangs
Package: installation-reports
Boot method: USB
Image version: http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/daily/hd-media/boot.img.gz, http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-businesscard.iso
I have set up the USB pendrive as follows:
>>>>>
# Change this to identify the device of your USB pendrive. Check twice!
dev='/dev/disk/by-id/usb-PNY_ATTACHE_PRO_07750E180008-0:0';
# USB pendrive image.
boot='http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/daily/hd-media/boot.img.gz';
# Installer ISO image.
iso='http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-businesscard.iso';
curl -L "$boot" | gunzip > "$dev";
mount "$dev" /media/usb;
pushd /media/usb;
curl -OL "$iso";
popd;
umount "$dev";
<<<<<
Booting with the pendrive plugged in hangs after showing the message
(process:1067): INFO: kbd-mode: setting console mode to Unicode (UTF-8)
, and if I add the "nopat" option, the machine hangs or after displaying the
language selection dialog. I have tried the following options on the boot
prompt:
install
install nopat
install noapic nolapic
install nopat noapic nolapic
Since installation hangs that early, I only can provide data gathered at a
previous attemt with a different (stupid) pendrive setup:
*** NOTE: data below gathered on the same machine, with *different*
*** installation media setup!
