Title:
  Ubiquity is stuck after "Prepare" step

Status in “parted” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am using the Kubuntu Beta 2 Live CD to install it on my Sony Vaio
  SVS13A190X laptop. It has one SSD with GPT partition and uses UEFI.

  After the prepare step, the installer hangs, presumably because of an
  inability to read some partitions, going by the syslog (attached).

  There is no indication of error, the installer is just stuck with the "Wait" 
mouse pointer spinning. I have used the Kubuntu 13.04 in the past to install 
successfully on this laptop.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1238446] Re: Ubiquity is stuck after "Prepare" step

2013-10-11 Thread Dmitrijs Ledkovs
We can read partitions, and parted_server is printing them to us.
We should ignore errors from multi-wide characters, and well continue to be 
able to install.
It is curious how come KDE Partition Manager "decodes" the labels correctly and 
why parted / parted_server fails to do the same for us.

** Also affects: parted (Ubuntu)

Both sda1, sda3 look like EFI System Partitions, though it's impossible.
I think sda1 is ESP for sda2 "recovery" OS, and sda3 is ESP for
sda4/sda5 "windows" OS, and if I power my laptop using "assist" button,
the recovery ESP kicks in and starts the "recovery" OS (which is windows
recovery mode). If I power on using the power button, windows starts as
usual.

  Ubiquity is stuck after "Prepare" step

Bug description:
  I am using the Kubuntu Beta 2 Live CD to install it on my Sony Vaio
  SVS13A190X laptop. It has one SSD with GPT partition and uses UEFI.

  After the prepare step, the installer hangs, presumably because of an
  inability to read some partitions, going by the syslog (attached).

  There is no indication of error, the installer is just stuck with the "Wait" 
mouse pointer spinning. I have used the Kubuntu 13.04 in the past to install 
successfully on this laptop.

Note that if I start "kde partition manager" myself, there are no
crashes, and it displays the partitions correctly on both the SSD and

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1238446] Re: Ubiquity is stuck after "Prepare" step

2013-10-11 Thread Adam Conrad
The ringbuffer spew here from the XFS driver when we attempt to mount
something that's not an XFS partition is clearly a kernel bug, but
there's likely also something we can do to make the installer a bit more
robust in this situation.

Note that the "partition" spewing the errors doesn't even contain a
filesystem, it's the extended volume that then contains the extended
partitions (like /dev/sda5, which is NTFS, not XFS).
