Package: installation-reports Version: 2.38 Severity: minor *** Please type your report below this line *** Dear d-i team, last weekend I installed Debian Lenny and it worked like a charm (yay!). Please note that I decided to use the d-i images provided by Kenshi Muto in order to get my network card to work during installation (see #512546). Afaict only the kernel package has been replaced on his installation media. However, there was one thing during installation that I found annoying: My computer is behind a firewall that even blocks NTP requests, so there is no chance to set the clock over the network. I know this, so I wasn't too excited when d-i's first attempt to set the clock apparently failed. It also did not upset me, when it failed a second and a third time, but I really became impatient when it tried a forth time and I really hesitated to click on the "Cancel" button for a second. Fortunately it gave up after the fifth try. Now my request is, please add a "Skip" button for people who know that setting the clock over the net won't work and who deliberately want to skip this step. It isn't a crucial step for installation anyway. At least, if you don't find another button an appropriate solution, please report to the user how many attempts you are still going to try before d-i skips this step itself. Something like "Attempt number 3 of 5." below the progress bar would have actually appeased me. The way it is now, some users might get the impression that the installation actually hangs and feel tempted to abort it after the second or third try failed without a feedback. Thank you very much! Cheers, Fabian -- Package-specific info: Boot method: CD Image version: http://mirror.home-dn.net/d-i/2.6.28/lenny-custom-0302.iso Date: <Date and time of the install> Machine: DELL Optiplex 760 Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred> Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Detect network card: [E] Configure network: [O] 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: [O] Comments/Problems: I gave "Detect network card" an "E" because I had to use unofficial installation media in order to install the system because of the usage of an outdated Linux kernel. I gave "Clock/timezone setup" an "E" because of the minor issue I described above. Everything else worked just perfectly.
