The default screen blanking interval set by the kernel is 10 minutes, and d-i doesn't change this; if the failure happens after 10 minutes (or nearby, to allow for possible clock skew inside kvm) then that would provide some circumstantial support for this. If that were the case, I'd expect the progress bar to jump if it was paused for a few minutes, though no one has mentioned that. -- - mdz -- Installation stalls randomly until a key is pressed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217815 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a direct subscriber. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Well I tested this on my machine here and I still see the problem, though with notsc it seems less frequent. I'm concerned that may be wishful thinking on my part. I have noticed a new behavior where the install red-screen fails during the selecting and installing packages bit towards the end of the install. I get a stall like before, but this time when I hit a key to continue, rather than carrying it, it drops me out to the red screen. Even if I go go back a few steps in the install process, it keeps giving me a red screen A installation step has failed or the like. I need to do some more testing and see if I can get it to reliably correlate to something I'm changing, but as you pointed out, it's getting late here too... -- -Regards- -Quentin Hartman- ** Attachment added: unnamed http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13777800/unnamed -- Installation stalls randomly until a key is pressed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217815 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a direct subscriber. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
