SO: the automatic-ubiquity kernel command line option DOES start ubiquity on boot, and it fails because it can't open the "default display".
This is undesirable, not least because it takes 20 seconds from starting ubiquity to it failing. ** Attachment added: "/var/log/messages (with hard disk)" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/41843070/var-log-messages-with-hdd.txt -- liveCD fails to boot when no hard drives present https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/498782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of puredyne team, which is the registrant for Puredyne Live. Status in Puredyne liveCD/DVD/USB/HD: In Progress Bug description: Using virtualbox-ose on Ubuntu Karmic + Puredyne, with a fresh virtual machine created with *no* hard disk, latest (2009-12-09) -dev iso from rsync fails to boot with an error: "no root file system is defined: please correct this from the partitioning menu" printed over and over... ctrl-alt-del => kills an ubiquity process before shutting down. Removing "automatic-ubiquity" from the kernel boot options line makes it boot to XFCE4 desktop as normal. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~puredyne-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~puredyne-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
