Bug#1005212: Calamares installer fails at partitioning disks

[Jonathan Carter]

Hi, can you please shed some more details on what your partitioning 
looked like? How did you set up your partitions, did you intend or 
specify for /dev/sda9 to be used, or was it the auto-partitioner?


I'll need some more information on how to re-produce this bug in order 
to file it upstream or to figure out whether it's a debian-specific issue.


thanks!

Bug#1005212: Calamares installer fails at partitioning disks

[ferrumcccp]

Package: calamaresVersion: 3.2.36-1
Dear Debian maintainers, I'm sorry to tell you that I've encountered a problem 
while installing Debian BullsEyeI'm installing Debian BullsEye from the live 
environment with the latest(as of Feb 9,2022) Debian XFCE live CD, on an AMD64 
device, booting from BIOS.When partitioning the disk, calamares fails to create 
an EXT4 filesystem, reporting that "mkfs.ext4 -qE /dev/sda9 failed". At this 
time, invoking this command manually results in "/dev/sda9 file not found".

I have to manually format the disk with fdisk, and let calamares proceed 
without formatting.
