Description Ben Levenson 2001-01-19 02:03:12 UTC
System: Big Sur-UP
qa0118.2
TUI Hard drive minimal
TUI  FTP server
TUI HTTP minimal
(could not verify on NFS install)

Systems don't reboot after typing <enter> on last screen of installation.
Must force reboot with <ctl-alt-del>.
System seems fine after reboot.

FWIW here is some info from virtual terms
vt3:
   running authentication cmd:['/usr/sbin/authconfig', '--kickstart',
'--nostart',
   '--enableshadow', '--enablemd5', '--disableenis'.....
   Mounting /proc/bus/usb in install path
   Mount of USB succeeded.

What does it do when you hit enter - terminate the install normally?

Comment 2 Michael Fulbright 2001-01-19 16:39:41 UTC
Putting into needinfo state.

Comment 3 Ben Levenson 2001-01-19 16:59:25 UTC
Not much happens after you type enter.  All of the dialog dissapears 
from the final screen, and you are simply left with a blue screen and 
a blinking cursor in the bottom left corner.
The computer does not freeze up -- you can still get to the other
consoles.

odd. waitpid?

Comment 5 Glen Foster 2001-01-19 21:54:09 UTC
This defect is considered MUST-FIX for Florence Gold release

Comment 6 Michael Fulbright 2001-01-24 16:57:27 UTC
Brent please verify qa0124.0 tree does NOT have this behavior.

Comment 7 Brent Fox 2001-02-10 00:04:45 UTC
I've verified that this issue is fixed in Fisher.
