There is a test written for "Check disc for defects" here: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/243/builds/41187/testcases/1447/results
But a lot of it is wrong I think ........... I'm pretty sure that's a 'casper' bug ;^) Lance --- On Sat, 4/6/13, Ali Linx (amjjawad) <amjja...@gmail.com> wrote: From: Ali Linx (amjjawad) <amjja...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Lubuntu-qa] raring-desktop-i386 Installation Test - Report 2 To: "Phill Whiteside" <phi...@ubuntu.com> Cc: "lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net" <lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net>, "lubuntu user list" <lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com> Date: Saturday, April 6, 2013, 7:44 PM HOOHAA :D Finally, the installation of raring-desktop-i386 from the LiveUSB created by Startup Disk Creator was done successfully :D However, the same issue has occurred again. Whenever I want to check disc for errors, it just sits there on the 5 dots with Lubuntu Logo, that is all. I decided to give it ONE last chance before I totally give up from the desktop image and it didn't let me down :D So, I have two successful installations now, one for the desktop image and the other for the alternate. I'm going to play with the un-official PPA for Lubuntu (https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-dev/+archive/non-official-apps?field.series_filter=raring) and try to produce some bugs/errors as much as possible but that would be for Round 3 and tomorrow :D Thank you! P.S.Do we have to report the issue as a bug? I mean "check disc for errors" never worked on the desktop image?!

If piglet is quite happy connecting to an external monitor system, then I'll have a play with my i386-desktop ISO and see how it behaves. I can only do this by VM, as piglet is a fully fledged fledged AMD Turon dual core machine. Regards, Phill.

I can't even see the live desktop.Last time, at least I was able to install but then couldn't login to the desktop. Now, nothing :D Installing Lubuntu 13.04 beta 2 from raring-alternate-i386 was done successfully using the 'dd' method to create the LiveUSB. So, your thoughts are more than welcome as I'm stuck and not sure what to do? One may ask why I'm checking the disc for errors and not go ahead and install?The answer is: If the tool to check the disc for errors does not work, how would I expect the installation to work?And I won't waste my time yet again to install then get the same result or even worse :) Thanks! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ali Linx (amjjawad) <amjja...@gmail.com> Date: Thu, Apr 4, 2013 at 8:35 PM Subject: Help - Beta2 installation Failed To: "lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net" <lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net> Hi, I have written everything on my blog with screenshots so there you go: http://amjjawad.blogspot.com/2013/04/testing-lubuntu-1304-report-1.html I hate the same issue previously with the daily image of 18-3-2013 but that was on Beta1 stage. We are now on Beta2 :( Lance gave me this link previously: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-initrd-bug.html That didn't help previously to fix the issue. I'm OUT of idea because this is the first time I have a failure installation :( Thank you! P.S.Yes, this is a very fresh new installation. Also note: Lubuntu 12.10 is installed on that very machine and it is my main OS. -- Best Regards, amjjawad https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad/ Lubuntu One Stop Thread| My Launchpad | My Ubuntu Forum Profile -- Best Regards, amjjawad https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad/ Lubuntu One Stop Thread| My Launchpad | My Ubuntu Forum Profile -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa Post to : lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/phillw -- Best Regards, amjjawad https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad/ Lubuntu One Stop Thread| My Launchpad | My Ubuntu Forum Profile -----Inline Attachment Follows----- -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa Post to : lubuntu...@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
