Description Vincent van de Camp 2004-01-30 10:29:11 UTC
1. Boot with latest beta livecd
2. When a prompt shows up, type 'net-setup eth0'
3. Notice that typing a 0 or 1 won't change the position of the bar indicating what type of setup will be done (dhcp or manual setup)

In previous versions this worked. Cursor keys still work

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot with latest beta livecd
2. When a prompt shows up, type 'net-setup eth0'
3. Notice that typing a 0 or 1 won't change the position of the bar indicating what type of setup will be done (dhcp or manual setup)

In previous versions this worked.


Expected Results:  
0 key should move the bar to DHCP
1 key should move the bar to 'specify an ip address manually'

After which hitting enter should select the option highlighted by the bar.

Forgot to give the livecd version this happens with: gentoo-2004.0-x86-20040128.iso
Comment 2 John Davis (zhen) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-04 22:54:32 UTC
have you tried using the new 2004.0 livecd?
Comment 3 Vincent van de Camp 2004-03-05 04:33:09 UTC
net-setup on the 2004.0 image still doesn't respond to the 0 or 1 keys.

Just out of interest, are you using the keys on the Num-Pad or did you try both, those on the keypad and those on the num-pad ? If just those on the numpad don't work, I suspect that this is a keymap-issue
Comment 5 Vincent van de Camp 2004-03-05 07:51:12 UTC
This was with the 'normal' keys. I can't remember having tried the numpad.
Comment 6 Vincent van de Camp 2004-03-06 14:22:20 UTC
Found bug also on minimal sparc64 iso. Numpad 1 works, but numpad or normal 0 will not go gack to DHCP.
Comment 7 John Davis (zhen) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-21 12:19:35 UTC
fixed in CVS for livecd-tools-1.0.1
Comment 8 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-03-25 11:25:12 UTC
Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux".

I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers,
this is the only reasonable way to do this.
