Following correctly the procedure to install 4.1-R, after specifying the http proxy + port, the installation simply hangs. The following messages appears in the windows where there is the ftp site look up: "Fatal error: Null name or value passed to st_variable2! - PRESS ANY KEY TO REBOOT". FYI, I am pretty sure of the values IP values I set previously because I can ping the station until I press a key... >How-To-Repeat: After loading the boot disks, go throught the menu: custom install disk space: all label: default distribution: kernel developper media: http: ftp server through http proxy ftp url: ftp.lip6.fr interface fxp0 no ipv6 / no dhcp manual config of IP values (press ok) Right after the following windows appears: looking up host ftp.lip6.fr with the msg "Fatal error..."
