if you had the problem when doing the installation thing directly after a fresh cd-rom boot, it would definitely be useful to have that logfile.
I start the install directly after boot. The only thing I don't do is partition the drive, since it's already partitioned.
that should not be a problem
if `aif -p interactive -l -p` does not fail and /arch/setup does, this might have something to do with the recent changes in the logging/debugging code (although it seems unlikely from the error you gave). some users have reporting /arch/setup not generating a logfile btw.
Right. /arch/setup doesn't give me a logfile. IIRC, neither does aif -p interactive. And as I said, aif -p interactive -l -d works fine.
If it's at all important, I'm doing all of this in qemu. Not sure how that could matter, though.

well, crap. if the problem occurs only when not doing logging, then this is going to be a bitch to investigate. (did you try just just '-l' or just '-d' instead of '-l -d' ?) if you can reproduce it consistently, file a bug report. however i cannot make guarantees as to when it will be fixed, due to time constraints. I can assist you if you want to debug this issue yourself, though. Dieter
