>Having lower latency media does seem like a valid workaround but, IMO, high-latency media is a significant enough use case that we should try and support it. I don't know that we can expect users to all have systems "next door" to their install targets to use for media hosting.
Fair enough. All I know is that I was unable to reproduce this even when mounting the ISO locally and going through three or four layers of web browser - BMC console - web browser - BMC console with desktop running on a server in the lab talking to another server in the lab. Latency is a problem, for sure. I tried doing this the other day by mounting that ISO on my local desktop and booting the machine from few hundred miles away on a 1.5Mb/s uplink and it was... not pleasant. I suspect Zhou Ling is doing this from a windows laptop over wifi through multiple layers of access point/router/switch (though the wifi is a suspicion, and I wonder if this goes away if Zhou Ling plugs that laptop into the same network the server BMC is on using a GigE dongle and some cat-5). Anyway, not my call to fix or not fix, it seemed to me that these were similar but not the same, but I am happy to be wrong on that. Given that, I'm now curious about how this was set up on the Ampere server too, and if anyone tried what I did by putting Desktop on a local machine and mounting the ISO from there, rather than from a remote location outside the DC. I suspect you were doing this from home as well (am I right?) and even with your uplink which has to be better than mine, the latency is still too great. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1946773 Title: "An error occurred.
