Bug Description
Starts Kubuntu in safe graphics mode
Installation options:
Language: Norwegian Bokmaal
Keyboard: Norway
Manually setting up a partition with reiserfs (67GB) and swap (3GB)
On installation step 7, the installation bar says "installing the language packages" (Installerer språkpakkene), and the bar shows 87%. It stays like this until you turn the computer off.
This does not happen if I choose English language and norwegian keyboard.
[Edit : it was with plain ubuntu]
To post a comment you must log in.
same here with french (choosed at boot time with F2)
Seems like at 87%, the installer try to make a connexion to retrieve latest locales packages
which can't succeed because we're in a private network here, and you MUST use a proxy.
Didn't try to set the proxy BEFORE installation, will try later.
It would probably be a good idea to put an warning message , (better is to offer the possibility of using a proxy), and in any case go on the end of installation.
