Package: di-utils
Version: 1.92+deb7u1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,
I've downloaded Debian 7.0 to use in a virtual machine.

I downloaded an amd64 image, and by mistake used qemu for i386.

I had the normal grub and then when selecting whether I wanted graphical
or normal installation, it would just hang and do nothing.
When trying to do an "expert install" it finally showed me what was
going on, and I could start qemu with the appropriate command line.

Could you make it print an error message in these cases, for any kind
of chosen kind of installation?
If a CD doesn't do anything but just hangs I could assume there is
something wrong with it, or the problem lies somewhere else.

Bye
