[Bug 532733] Re: apt/dpkg in qemu-system-arm hangs if a big task is installed

[Oliver Grawert]

note also that the VM itself doesnt hang, its just the disk IO ... if i stop the hanging process teh VM is usable as before.
if you want to reproduce install rootstock and run:

sudo rootstock -f test -s ubuntu-netbook^
(note that wont give you any access to the VM, try the thing below for this)

or to have more debugging abilities use rootstock to create an armel
qemu minimal install (with username test and password test):

sudo rootstock -f test -s ubuntu-minimal -l test -p test --keepimage

then run qemu-system-arm as described at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootfsFromScratch and install the ubuntu-
netbook task with:

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook^
