Bug#603459: debian-installer: Squeeze installer hanged at partitioning step when the language is selected as Turkish
Package: debian-installer Severity: important Squeeze Installer hanged at partitioning step when the language is selected as Turkish. This is the daily build version of Netinstall at 12 Nov 2010, but there is the same problem with the earlier versions. There is no problem, if language is selected as English. To reproduce the bug: - Boot from CD - Install - Select a language: Turkish - Konum secimi (Select a location): Turkiye - Bir klavye duzeni sec (Select a keyboard layout): Turkce (Q duzeni) - Defaults until partition disks step There is no problem if one of the guided defaults is choosen and if no change is made. When selecting the manual mode or trying to change a default value of a partition in the guided mode (for example, changing ext3 to ext4 as the fs), the installer is hanged. Outputs: * Process bar is hanged at %54 * at terminal output screen: (process:255) INFO: kbd-mode: setting console mode to Unicode (UTF-8) * at terminal screen after ps command (the last few lines): 5730 root 1872 S/bin/sh /sbin/debian-installer 5740 root 6124 S/usr/bin/bterm -f /lib/unifont.bgf -l C.UTF-8 /lib/d 5741 root 15188 Sdebconf -o d-i /usr/bin/main-menu 5747 root 1744 S/usr/bin/main-menu 5783 root 1712 Sudpkg --configure --force-configure partman-base 5784 root 1868 S/bin/sh /var/lib/dpkg/info/partman-base.postinst con 5785 root 1872 S/bin/sh /bin/partman 5873 root 1872 S/bin/sh -e /lib/partman/init.d/35dump 5876 root 1872 Rps * after trying to delete a partition in manual mode, the terminal output: init: process 'sbin/reopen-console /sbin/debian-install' (pid 249) exited.

I've just tried it without problems, using today's http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso (that is, 14th nov). Just to rule that out, how much memory do you have? Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Quoting Samuel Thibault (sthiba...@debian.org): tags 603459 + moreinfo unreproducible I can reproduce this problem with beta1 netinst image. And it seems to only happen with the Turkish localization. Steps to reproduce: - choose Turkish - acept warning about incomplete translation (Evet) - choose Türkyie - choose French keymap (Francizca) - configure network - set root and user password - Choose guided partitioning (default choice) - Choose al in one partition (Tüm dosyalar...) You get the partitions layout screen. Go up to the partition with / Hit enter Try to change file system to ext4 Somethign apparently fails on you're back at the beginning of partman signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I can't reproduce it with a self-made image made today, however. The interesting bit with the 14th nov image is probably kernel: [322.169251] debconf[268]: segfault at d ip b766c3be sp bf997a30 error 4 in libc.so.6 (deleted)[b762e000+c2000] which seems to be inside 0003dc70 W malloc_usable_size 0003ecb0 T __libc_mallopt which could be due to some buffer overrun?
