If install is proceeded with a reboot results in a hung boot. Listing of packages selected is attached. I'm sure there's a better Summary of this. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:

I did not have that experience. I made a clean default install of KDE. Did you execute "urpmi --auto-update" after setting up the repo's. There is a new version of mata-task, which may be relevant. The packages that are listed in your attachment, were installed on my system as part of the installation of Mageia.

I think there is a serious problem in how the repo is being handled with the new Classic Installer. The old ones, not a few days old, worked just fine.
OK, after a lot of time and repeated installs I come to this conclusion: There appears to be a very big difference between the way that the present M4RC Live media vs Classic Install media handle my local repo. I mirror to mirrors.kernel.org. I do that automatically every day at 4AM. I also rsync again just before I do any testing. If I do a Vbox install of lets say M4RC i586 KDE Live-CD and set the repo such that it is my local repo all goes well. I can install and update that test install with no problems at all. I can equally set the repo such that it comes directly from mirrors.kernel.org and that works just fine too. I believe this is the case for all of the most recent M4RC Live media. If I do a Vbox install of the very latest M4RC Classic Installers, 32 or 64 bit, if I use my same local repo it responds as defined in the Description section of this BUG. If I change the repo to be direct to mirrors.kernel.org all is well. So for some reason the latest Classic Installer is not able to deal with my local repo. I did an install using a one generation older Classic Installer of just a few days ago and it used my local repo just fine. So something has changed, and just with the Classic Installers.
urpmi.addmedia core http://192.168.1.2:8080/~mageia/repo/distrib/4/i586/media/core/release with media_info/hdlist.cz Works for Live media. Does not work for the most recent Classic Installers http://mirrors.kernel.org/mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586/media/core/release/ works for both Live media and Classic Installers. Worked for the Classic Installers one generation ago.
please run urpmi yourpackage with '--debug' (on a clean environement ie removed of problematic stuff)

(In reply to Manuel Hiebel from comment #7) > please run urpmi yourpackage with '--debug' (on a clean environement ie > removed of problematic stuff) Thanks Manuel. As we "speak" I am rerunning all my testing on this BUG with the latest ISO's ( dated 19 Jan ). All in Vbox. I am responding to this message with a Vbox M4 i586 KDE Live-CD. It seems completely ok with my local repo. All apps are installing from my local repo with no problems. Give me another 12-hours or so to rerun all this testing and I will report what I find here. If I run into the problem again I will use your request and attach it to this BUG.
FWIW. Computer testing 101 when encountering a bad bug. Make sure the good parts are still the good parts.
