I have not noticed this. What are the models of your notebook
computers?

You could do everyone a favour and debug it a little. Do you know
which process was spinning the CPU?
a Samsung NP535U3C (amd processor and graphics)

a Sony Vaio VPCF23S1E (Intel Core i7-2670QM (-HT-MCP-) NVIDIA GF108M)

It always happened when it came to install the software tasks (desktop,
printserver, etc) - apt i'd presume. The fans are going crazy. At first
i thought it might be a problem related to the amd/ati graphics which
unfortunately do not work fine with the free driver. But now, i
realized this also on the Sony Vaio which has nothing to do with amd.
But indeed, on the Vaio it was a qemu installation - but otoh, just to
check, i compiled libre office from source and the machine never got
hotter than 60°. Installing Jessie in qemu the top heat was 87°!

(How can i debug the installation?)

Well, those are certainly powerful enough machines.

Do you have a very fast Internet connection? I would assume the fans go crazy, but unless your room is very hot and the machines full of dust, they should not crash from overheating.

Let me see...

OK first of all, at least on the version I have (devuan-jessie-i386-alpha4-netboot.iso) there is no graphical installer. So it's most likely nothing to do with your graphics chip.

OK, well, I just tried the new BETA. It does have a graphical installer. You might want to try the text version and see if there is any problem with that.

I don't know why there is a graphical installer. My opinion is that If it's not taking up too much developers time, then great, but it's really not necessary. Hopefully no one is spending much time on it.
