Package: debian-installer
Severity: critical
Justification: prevents install

Downloaded the daily etch netinst ISO image from
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso

Booted fine on a ThinkPad T42, detected CD drive and built-in 
Intel PRO/1000 net card.


Problem 1: DHCP gets the machine an IP address, but I get the
message:

"The network autoconfiguration was successful. However, no 
 default route was set ... Continue without a default route?"

This is strange, because if I continue installation selecting
'Yes', keeps hitting Enter (giving no name server, no domain
name, etc.), no network mirror, install from CD only,
install GRUB, and reboot the newly installed system, the route
is set fine:

"debian:~# route
 ...
 192.168.1.0  *            255.255.255.0  ...
 default      192.168.1.1  0.0.0.0        ..."

by the default configuration:

"debian:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces
 ...
 allow-hotplug eth0
 iface eth0 inet dhcp"


Problem 2: If I instead choose 'No', and configure the
network manually, choose any network mirror, the installer
tells me:

"The installer failed to access the mirror. ..."

But if I inspect VT4, I can see that what is tried is:

"wget -q http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/debian//dists/testing/main/binary-i386/Release -O -
 | grep Architecture"

If I do that from the VT3, it works fine.

I guess is missing a

"| cut -d' ' -f 2"

at the end?


Cheers,
/JP

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
