#18421 closed bug

Installer hangs when copying files to SSD — at Version 7

Description (last modified by jjido)

I am trying to install haiku on a Thinkpad x200s.

If I use an old image (hrev51659) the files copy fine and the install completes ok, but anything recent (I tried beta 4 and latest nightly and few more) is not able to copy.

The installer shows it’s copying bash hpkg and then hangs. Other applications cannot start either. The installer stop button doesn’t stop properly.

I have to force the computer off.

Running top during the install doesn’t show anything taking CPU, in fact Installer Copy Engine briefly takes the top spot but it goes down quickly. When I mount the target disk I can see a zero bytes bash hpkg in the packages folder.

The SSD occupies the internal drive slot (SATA). The install image is on a SD card in the SD slot.

I will attach screenshots/logs later.

I tried putting the SSD in an external USB enclosure. The installer hung at the same place, however it displayed an error message about a timeout. Also with external the Ctl-Alt-Del combination still works which was not the case before.

I don't see any errors in the syslog, and you haven't attached anything with a visible error message elsewhere.

It also appears you are testing with hrev55635 which is before even beta4. You say that beta4 doesn't work, but what happens, exactly? Please try using it, and copy a syslog from it after the error occurs.

All recent versions behave the same. I wanted to upload the log from hrev57004 but I am not able to use the upload button in that version. I will try to upload from beta4 if that helps.

Attaching pictures of screen with external disk. That’s all I have, sorry. Don’t know how to produce an error it just hangs the system.

Please drop to KDL via Alt+SysRq+D, type syslog | tail 50, and take a picture.
