Description claire robinson 2012-09-03 14:42:45 CEST 
Mga3 alpha1 DVD i586 default KDE installation from a USB stick.

Checking /root/drakx/ddebug.log showed this, not sure if it is expected or a bug.

* running: losetup /dev/loop1 /mnt/root/drakx/replay_install.img
* mounting /dev/loop1 on /mnt/root/aif-mount as type ext2, options 
* running: fsck.ext2 -a /dev/loop1
fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/loop1
/dev/loop1: 
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem.  If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
    e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

* mounting /dev/loop1 on /mnt/root/aif-mount as type vfat, options 

I'll attach the full ddebug.log
