A3+: Automatic Configuration hangs at "Detecting Printers..."
Last modified: 2008-04-10 08:34:48 UTC
Just tried a network install of openSUSE 11.0 Alpha 3 plus i386 and the automatic configuration is hanging at "Configuring hardware... (2/8)". Will attach log files.

Miso, what do you think of this one :)? Well, don't say what "exactly" you think of it!!! :)))
Trying to reproduce
Can't reprocute, it works for me fine. Could you please start installation with Y2DEBUG http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/YaST#The_y2logs_don.27t_seem_to_show_my_problem._Can_that_logging_be_made_any_more_verbose.3F and attach logs again?
The message Unable to bind socket for address 127.0.0.1:631 - Address already in use. hints to a) another cups daemon "cupsd" is already running (and using port 631) b) or that another process, e.g. YP, is using this port In first case YaST/installation flow is to be fixed. The second indicates to an issue in the glibc, which is known and happens rarely. There are mechanism in the glibc (via file /etc/bindresvport.blacklist) to avoid this. But we noticed this issue still in the beta phase of every new distribution once or twice. I was never been told, if and how this got solved. Don't know, if this information helps?

Hanging at SCR::Read(.probe.printer) which is similar (but not same) like "hwinfo --printer" On the other hands comment #9 pointed problem could be somewhere else Holger, Stephan, can I have ssh access on that system?
Access information provided.
Thanks, reproduced hwinfo --printer failed with segfault: hwinfo --printer > misc.2.1: ioSegmentation fault This seems to be known bug #371997 SCR agent hangs echo '`Read(.probe.printer)'|/usr/lib/YaST2/bin/y2base stdio scr ([]) Try workaround and boot with "hwprobe=-parallel,-misc.par" please
Providing that as boot params for the 2nd stage helps.
Then it's duplicate of bug #371997 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 371997 ***
