> 4. Run '/bin/sh -x /usr/lib/finish-install.d/90console' and post the > output somewhere. This doesn't log anything because executing 90console actualy spawns debconf/frontend to execute the script. So I inspected things by hand: 1) readlink on /proc/$(pidof debian-installer)/fd/0 evaluates to "/dev/console" 2) "mapdevfs" returns /dev/console This is hitting the "Pass unknown devices without changes" path in debian-installer/devfs.c:di_system_devfs_map_fron This code seems to assume that the installer will have the underlying device openned, but instead it is /dev/console which it will have. Code needs to be added, somewhere, to translate /dev/console to whatever the underlying device is. Or to detect the serial console in some other manner. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-sparc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
