Created attachment 5390 [details] ddebug.log.xz Yesterday, installing with yesterday's boot-nonfree.iso, there was an error message: ERROR: 'script' failed for systemd-216-1.mga5.x86_64: I can't attach a full report.bug.xz, because it was impossible to finish the install (it didn't manage to install an EFI-bootloader) and, of course, I couldn't find a USB key Hope the attached and compressed ddebug.log is enough. CC'ing leuhmanu, who hit this issue, too. Maybe he has better logs than me.
Created attachment 5405 [details] journalctl -a of normal + multi-user.target + rescue boots Just in case it is usefull at all (is it???): attaching "journalctl -a" output from the installed Mageia of * a normal boot at 10:53h CEST (which crashed), * a multi-user.target boot (impossible to log in) at 10:55h * the rescue boot at 11:03h, which worked fine.
I confirm the problem. I have the same message during the net-installation. I also have: script failed for cdrkit-1.1.11-4, cdrkit-genisoimage and samba-client. By reboot, I have grub, plymouth screen, then a wait, then the computer stops.

I have a similar experience with network install (minimal install with X) using boot.iso dated September 3rd. "Script failed for systemd and samba-client" Now the boot is very unreliable . Mostly it reaches DM but before I can login it dissapeares and computer shuts down. Sometimes it freezes after DM window dissapears and at about 20% cases DM window reappeares and I'm able to login.

I suggest to incrementing the severity, because it is not possible to restart correctly.
Severity: normal => critical
(In reply to Georges Eckenschwiller from comment #4) > I suggest to incrementing the severity, because it is not possible to > restart correctly. Yeah, you're righ, this not being possible to boot normally into the new install makes it a release blocker, too. CC'ing QA team leaders Added "after 5alpha2" to the whiteboard, so it'll show up when you search for 5alpha2 release blockers.... it'll probably get fixed before 5beta1 QA testing starts, though ;-)

Thanks for adding us Marja. IIRC from dev ml there were some issues Colin was fixing with the new systemd. We can certainly test a network install when beta1 testing begins though in a few weeks.
There are actually quite a few problems with network installing using boot.iso or boot-non-free.iso. Maybe this is a good time for me to go through again and document them. One is that both boot.iso and boot-non-free.iso do not work if you attempt an ftp install where the ftp point requires an ID & PW. Also if you attempt an http install and the local repo, like mine, uses something other then a common URL like: http://mirrors.kernel.org/mageia/distrib/4/i586 Example, attempting to install from: http://192.168.1.2:8080/~mageia/distrib/4/i586 Will not work. It used to work in M3 but M4 lost that ability.
Could we please stay on the original issue ?

For me, the problem is solved. Thanks
Cool. If someone else can confirm and close the bug that would be great! :)
(In reply to Colin Guthrie from comment #10) > Cool. If someone else can confirm and close the bug that would be great! :) Sorry, can't test yet because I have only WPA encryopted wlan where I am now (so impossible to connect when using boot.iso) So I should create a private mirror (which was on my todo-list, anyway), or I should wait for the QA pre-beta1 traditional iso. I'll try to go for both options and just use what I get first. Btw, according to mirror.readme > The expected size of the mirror is around 700GB. If that's really all, then I don't need to go out and buy a new ext. HD
(In reply to Colin Guthrie from comment #10) > Cool.

"Script failed for systemd and > samba-client" That issue still exists If we don't have a separate report for it, then MrsB will create it
