Package: installation-reports Boot method: USB Image version: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/wheezy_di_beta4/amd64/iso-cd/debian-wheezy-DI-b4-amd64-CD-1.iso Date: 14. 12. 2012 Machine: Acer Aspire One 725 Processor: AMD C-70 Memory: 4 GB Partitions: / and /home Output of lspci -knn (or lspci -nn): NA Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Detect network card: [O] Configure network: [E] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Install base system: [O] Clock/timezone setup: [E] User/password setup: [O] Install tasks: [O] Install boot loader: [O] Overall install: [E] Comments/Problems:
Configure network: - recognition of Ethernet and WLAN card is correct. LAN card would need non-free firmware (not offered since not found on net - not invested much time in that).
- WLAN installed, WEP authentication passed, IP assigned, setup of LAN via DHCP failed! (in another try WLAN was configured manually, but it didn't work either).
Clock/timezone setup:
- fails because of missing network connection, manual setup not offered (?)
Overall install:
- touchpad works only in first few screens (had to try how many actually)
- after installation is finished and system reboots, grub is started, OS selected, boot process starts, after /dev filesystem is populated, screen gets corrupted (no matter whether desktop packages are selected during the installation or not) and system hangs. System is unresponsive to any key.

Hi, thank you for submitting installation reports, much appreciated. I read through all the ("boot" related) bugs mentioned here and am closing them now as - they (finally) indicated success and/or - I know from first hand experience that the functionality is working in Wheezy and/or - they only contained very little information and/or - they were (very) old. If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply or just file a new one - thats often better, as the bug log will be more clear. cheers, HolgerAttachment: signature.asc
