[Qemu-devel] [Bug 532733] Re: apt/dpkg in qemu-system-arm hangs if a big task is installed

[Arvind Singh]

I am seeing similar issue on Lucid.
Rootstock version:  rootstock-0.1.99.3
Here is my command line:
sudo ./rootstock --fqdn beagleboard --login ubuntu --password beagle 
--imagesize 4G --swapsize 512 --components "main,universe,multiverse" --seed 
openssh-server,build-essential,apache2,postgresql-server-dev-8.4,postgresql-contrib,sqlite3,libsqlite3-dev
 --dist lucid --serial ttyS2 --kernel-image  
http://rcn-ee.net/deb/kernel/beagle/lucid/v2.6.32.11-l13/linux-image-2.6.32.11-l13_1.0lucid_armel.deb

Fails with:

/bin/installer: line 55:   157 Segmentation fault      apt-get -y install 
openssh-server build-essential apache2 postgresql-server-dev-8.4 
postgresql-contrib sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev
E: Second stage build in Virtual Machine failed !
E: Please see the log to see what went wrong.
I: Cleaning up...
../rootstock: line 54:  5051 Killed                  qemu-system-arm $QEMUOPTS 
-append "${APPEND}" > $QEMUFIFO 2>&1
....
I: A logfile was saved as 
/home/asingh/met/v_4_1_0/ubuntu-sd/rootstock-201005260742.log
I: done ...
mkimage: Can't open ./vmlinuz-*: No such file or directory

This succeeds if I just give 2 packages as seed.

This was and is all working in Jaunty without any issues.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

running rootstock and installing ubuntu-netbook^ makes the VM hang in 
"unpacking iso-codes" this is reproducable every time in rootstock as well as 
in a standard qemu-system-arm vm that contains a minimal ubuntu with running 
apt-get install ubuntu-netbook
