[Bug 1389754] Re: net-install for current 14.04 via iPXE on VMWare stalls for 20 minutes

[Rasmus Edgar Jørgensen]

I am still struggling with this problem. Nothing in the logs give any
hint to what is wrong. Automated installations are not very interesting
when they take just as long as a manual installation. Anyone?

Title:
  net-install for current 14.04 via  iPXE on VMWare stalls for 20
  minutes

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After the debian installer has succesfully configured networking, the
  installer will hang for about 20 minutes after fetching Packages.gz
  from a local apt-cacher-ng mirror.

  This can clearly be seen in the attached logs. Check syslog 11:38.

  I have also attached the current preseed file.

  The initial version of Ubuntu 14.04 did not have this issue, and I
  believe that this issue  was introduced later.

  How to replicate:
  Boot from iPXE iso (the only one I've tested) and install via http.
