Package: iso-scan Version: 1.53 Severity: important Tags: d-i Hi,
I'm trying to install using a custom USB-stick, as described here: https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/i386/ch04s03.html.en I followed the instructions there, copying debian-8.0.2-amd64-netinst.iso into the top directory of the USB stick. The system I'm installing on (sorry, the info below is my desktop, not the target system) has 7 drives in, and the USB stick[0] appears as /dev/sdh in the installer. I'm using preseed, and the installer gets to doing iso-scan, but fails to actually find the .iso. Oddly, though, if I then follow through the menus thus: [Continue] at the failed-to-find-ISO prompt Scan hard drives select /dev/sdh [installer finds the ISO, so say yes] The installer then says: "Successfully mounted FIXME installer ISO image" The ISO file debian-8.2.0-amd64-netinst.iso on /dev/sdh (FIXME) will be used as the installation ISO image [if I select Continue at this point, the installation proceeds happily] I think this is a bug - the installer clearly *can* find my ISO it just isn't doing so... Thanks, Matthew [0] strictly, it's a fake USB stick provided by passing the image to the RMM's USB-stick device redirection menu -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.9 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (990, 'oldstable'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
