  • syslog Edit (2.7 MiB, application/octet-stream; name="syslog")

 Attached is the syslog after the failure.? The end of the syslog has gobs of media change error messages most of which are redundant as I was trying to get to any kind of <go back>.
The only option on the media change screen? was? <continue>, no <go back>, so I broke out of install with an Alt-F4 (or was it F5) and used a command line Alt-F2 to save /var/log/syslog to a usb file, then booted a jaunty for this reply.
The media change error occurs just after:
scanning the mirror
at:
Select and Install Software
1%

It asks for exactly the CD that is in the drive,
"Jaunty Jackalope" -Alpha i386 (20090112.1)
as I remember.

Anything you'd like me to try, let me know.

Thanks, Jerry

Could you boot the installer with DEBCONF_DEBUG=developer on the kernel
command line, then send me /var/log/syslog from the running installer
after reproducing this bug? You can extract the log file using "Save
debug logs" from the installer's main menu (select "Go back" until you
get to it).
