Package: debian-installer Version: 20090123lenny8 Severity: high
while installing a Debian from the netinst 5.0.8 i386 iso image, using "expert install", the step "Install the base system" hangs at 1%...
switching to the fourth console (alt+f4), i observe that aptitude is trying to upgrade the kernel (2.6.26-2-686), but complains that i am upgrading from an untrusted source (i am using mirror http://ftp.fr.debian.org/ through a proxy). the log shows that i MUST type "Yes" or "No" to continue, but the installer ui does not offer any way to answer the request, nor does it allows to cancel the current step.
from another console, killing aptitude allows me to restart the same step, with the same outcome... preventing from installing the system, especially for novice users !
i would expect aptitude to never ask any question while performing an upgrade from the installer. a sensible default answer should be chosen so that the installer can continue its job.
