Bug Description

Binary package hint: debian-installer

If you run through the installer keyboard auto-detect, and then select "go back" after going through the auto-detect wizard, to manually assign keyboard map the installer will hang on the package installation at 85% if not connected to a network. This is the part where the installer tries to install open office from the web.

How did you go about establishing that this was the cause? It seems a bit implausible to me, and I suspect that this failure is unrelated to how you configure the keyboard. Perhaps you could provide log files?

Changed in debian-installer:
status: Unconfirmed → Needs Info

The installer only hangs if I choose auto detect keyboard and go back. It's happened every time I've used auto detect, and go back. I have never had this problem when manually selecting my keyboard layout.

The install will continue if you hook the computer up to an Internet connection, but it hangs at 85% every time if it's not connected.

What log files would be helpful?

/var/log/syslog from a failed install would be helpful. You can extract it using "Save debug logs" from the main menu, or 'anna-install openssh-client-udeb' to make the scp command available so that you can copy it out.
