no that make sense, you have an USB interfaces loaded waiting the plug
of USB devices. The only buggy thing i see is :
if (found_usb_interfaces()) {
modprobe_usb_modules("keyboard", "mouse", "usb-storage");
}
if i understand correctly, and what i don't like really so much.

Doh, it did not do the array reference error for me -- maybe this is not the same prob? But anyway you can try the latest cooker to see if it fixes.

Re: [Cooker] bug in the current installer

Nope, same thing happens, although I don't have any USB storage devices, just my iPAQ, so I don't know if that would have made a difference. It's croaking on interactive.pm, line 109, which is in ask_from_list; it appears to just be a generic dialog-box generating subroutine, and I'm not sure what $l is (not a very descriptive variable name grin) Unfortunately, it's hard to really trace back to what was calling it. I've tried following it and I suspect it's dying from load_module, but I'm not positive. Just to get an idea, when I tell it I have another SCSI device, should the next thing that comes up be a list of devices from the pci_probing/pcitable.pm module? Or should I just give up for now and wait for an update? :) -- Ben Reed a.k.a.
