List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi. I don't know if anyone has had this problem in the past and in case it's been discussed I apologize. I installed woody debian on a new system and the installation of the base system went well. The problem I'm having is when you first boot up the system and it runs base-config. I am stuck in a loop. It starts off by asking about the keymap, then the gmt for the hw clock, then about passwords, I setup root's passwd, create a normal user. From this point it loops back to the question about the console keymap. It then skips the part of adding a root password and creating a new user but it keeps cycling through the keyamp, gmt, and password type setup. Any ideas? I am using the root disk from the woody directory from the debian site.
