Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

Hi,

This crash occurred while doing a reinstall without formatting on a fully updated intrepid version. I reinstalled the system due to connection and security (gnome-keyring) problems with the 2.6.27-8 kernel. The crash occurred on a live-cd with a 2 GB linux-swap. The graphical installer was working in the meantime. My hardware is functioning normally and my BIOS is fully updated. I will copy the crash report and all /var/log files to my reinstalled partition to assist with further debugging and/or backtraces if required.

Thanks,

Thomas

According to "debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable", not a flashplugin-nonfree issue.
