Bug#987377: rescue-mode: when in graphical mode, locks up one prompt before the shell
Testing the alpha2 netinst shows that it works:
https://openqa.debian.net/tests/1463
whereas alpha3 shows the bug:
https://openqa.debian.net/tests/1477
Those two tests were run with DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 so the syslog should be
very verbose.
The intent of the test being run here is to try to open the "installer
environment" shell first, run df, exit and then do the same again in the
target. It is not grabbing a screenshot at the right moment to see the
df bit, but clearly the exit is working in the working test.
In the broken test, it's not even managing to get to the "installer
environment" shell, so it seems this bug affects both shells.
BTW this is AFAIK specific to the graphical rescue mode -- IIRC text
mode worked fine when I tried it.
All these tests have been done with BIOS mode boot.
Cheers, Phil.
