Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubiquity
When using either Dapper, Edgy or Feisty installation media (Alternate CD's and Net CD's) loading of the files from the USB CDROM is very slow and often hangs before steps such as # Scanning for hardware # Guided partitioning I 1st suspected this was due to the drive however after installing Debian 3.1_r4 i386 using the USB CDROM on the same hardware (which worked as expected from an internal drive) I now believe the problem is with the live CD kernels. ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Installing from USB CDROM is very slow and hangs alot during installation https://launchpad.net/bugs/84889 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
