I don't have access to my laptop right at this moment, but I can describe my network setup and I do remember the contents of those files.
I am running bind on my OpenBSD server that also does DNS for my internal network (with a ".int" TLD). When I installed Ubuntu it asked for a machine name, so I gave my laptop the name "debussy". When I went to install apache as described above, it could not resolve "debussy" so I changed the files as shown below which allowed the second attempt at installation to succeed: /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 debussy.int debussy /etc/hostname debussy.int -- Hang during installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/497763 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
