The progress of the current download is not being reported. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from openSUSE 11.3 NET installer for x86-64. 2. Select Install. 3. Watch the installer download boot images (6). Actual Results: 3. There is no feedback about the downloading process; the installation screen shows that the previous step has been downloaded 100% but the current download is not visible and the download progress is not being updated. It appears the installer has been stalled, especially over a slow link. The boot images appear on the console only after they have fully arrived, with progress level of 100%. Expected Results: The boot image currently being downloaded should be announced on the console and download progress should be periodically updated from 0% to 100%. Workaround: Virtual terminal #3 shows the file (stage) being downloaded. Virtual terminal #9 allows you to examine the size of the target using the command { ls '-l' 'download'; }. If the size is increasing, all is good. Note: the ls command in the installer image is minimal; in particular, it does not work on files (it says "file not found"). Quite funny. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
