Huh? There must be *something* different, considering you'd be setting |
| 12 |
the password yourself in this case!? |
| 13 |
What do you mean by "piping to bash", and what exactly does it do when |
| 14 |
the installer stops? Complete lockup, crashing installer (so you get |
| 15 |
thrown out to a shell), hanging installer (but you can steill switch |
| 16 |
consoles), something else? If it's anything but the former, try running |
| 17 |
dmesg on another console when the installer fails, and see if there are |
| 18 |
any hints. |
