Avi: > It seems to have something to do with the disk file > being present. Unfortunately, it crashed when I tried to do an install this time, even with the disk file present. It must have been a fluke. When I look at the screen, it seems to be crashing at the same point in the installation process which looks to be right after it prints a message about input4. Looking at dmesg on the running system, I see these lines: [218721.046402] input: ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input4 [218722.372199] Adding 706820k swap on /dev/sda5. Priority:-1 extents:1 across:706820k [218722.446108] EXT3 FS on sda1, internal journal [218723.218838] NET: Registered protocol family 10 [218723.219309] lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions [218733.554734] eth0: no IPv6 routers present [218760.283624] eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0x05E1 [218770.434167] eth0: no IPv6 routers present [218932.632286] Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = -135864080 ns) [218932.708238] Time: acpi_pm clocksource has been installed. The next line after input4 is setting up swap on the disk. Again, this seems to be related to disk. The crash is repeatable. There has to be a way to diagnose it. Is there any way to get more information on what happened so we can debug it?
