could you tell us what arguments you used, if any? what version of simple-cdd and debian-cd you have installed? > > ..and i expected that to install atleast a base system. > > But the installation stopped in the middle throwing an error "Package > > busybox is missing" ..I hope this happens because of missing "busybox" > > entry in the file base-squeeze. where exactly did you get this error message? can you check if busybox was actually present on the CD image? after working around a problem with the bootloader (seems debian-cd in sid needs to be updated), i was able to install without problem. > Sounds like a bug in simple-cdd as there's no problem with regular Debian > CDs as far as I know. Reassigning accordingly. i believe the "regular Debian CDs" use debian-cd from svn and debian-installer from the daily/weekly builds, and simple-cdd just uses debian-cd and debian-installer from the archive. unfortunately because of that, simple-cdd is rather difficult to test in testing/unstable without manual configuration and preparation by the user (though generally works with stable releases). could you try again with profiles/default.conf: # use daily built debian-installer images export DI_WWW_HOME="default" # use an alternate copy of debian-cd debian_cd_dir=/path/to/debian-cd where /path/to/debian-cd is a directory created with: svn co svn://svn.debian.org/debian-cd/trunk debian-cd see if that works any better? live well, vagrant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
