2008-10-28 22:45:44 Colin Watson None: statusexplanation Confirmed. It appears that apt doesn't write dlstatus messages to Status-Fd if given the -q option. I'm not sure whether we should have pkgsel stop passing -q, or fix this; however it does seem a little odd for -q to control non-user-visible messages as well as general wittering on stderr.

2008-10-29 10:54:24 Colin Watson ubuntu-release-notes: statusexplanation Release notes text added: == Slow start to "Select and install software" step in text-mode installer == The "Select and install software" step in the text-mode install CD may appear to hang at a low single-digit percentage. This is particularly the case for netboot installations, where there will be no progress b ar updates at all while downloading packages. This is due to a fault in the interaction between the installer and `apt-get`, which was diagnosed too late to fix for Ubuntu 8.10: [[https://launchpad.net/bugs/290234|bug 290234]]. You can find out whether the installer is making progress by pressing Alt-F4 to switch to the logging console; Alt-F1 switches back to the main installer. (If you are installing in QEMU or KVM, be careful to press Ctrl+Alt or click in the window to have the emulator grab focus before pressing Alt-F4, as otherwise this will close the emulator!)
