I think our frustration with this bug has been duly noted, so now it's time to concentrate on a fix and helping Phillip. Please refrain from attacking the one guy who is actually trying to help as I'm sure that is no motivation for him to work on this bug at all.

This is a very serious bug, and again I'm not bashing Ubuntu. Let me make that clear. I LOVE UBUNTU!!! But this bug is beyond ridiculous. I think they should follow the path PCLinux OS just did. They had major bugs in the original release a few weeks ago, and just issued a new point release with fresh ISOs to resolve the issues. I also really wish this bug would get "Assigned" to someone.

Good find Nathaniel. Unfortunately, I think either Ubiquity or Partman are just really "broken" in the 10.04 release.

[Bug 568050] Re: Ubuntu 10.04 can't create partition on fakeraid
Well guys, I got this to work a somewhat different way as I'm using Ubuntu Server. If you can get your hands on a 9.10 server cd, use it to start an install. Once you get to the part where it detects your raid, activate it, and setup your partitions however you like, and then apply your changes. Unlike the red screen you get with the message (can't create a filesystem) in 10.04, 9.10 will successfully create your partitions. After your disk has been partitioned and formatted, stop the 9.10 install. Now reboot, and start the install with the 10.04 server cd. Again, once you get to the part where it detects your raid, activate it. You'll see the partitions you created before. Reassign their mount points, and format them again if you like. After I did this my install of 10.04 was successful using my fakeraid. However, the installer didn't install grub on my second hard drive. This was a simple fix by simply issuing the command sudo grub-install /dev/sdb for my particular setup. I hope this helps someone who's trying to install Ubuntu Server 10.04 on a fakeraid setup. I did test by powering the machine off and removing power to one hard drive and then the other to verify it would boot to both, and it was successful. -- Ubuntu 10.04 can't create partition on fakeraid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568050 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 568050] Re: Ubuntu 10.04 can't create partition on fakeraid
Hey Phillip. Thanks so much for your help on this, and I will definitely try the workaround. Just one comment though, and please know this is not directly aimed at you Phillip as you've been nothing but helpful, but rather Ubuntu as a whole. As stated above, CentOS, Fedora, and OpenSuse all installed on my fakeraid out of the box with no workarounds, and while I honestly feel neither of those distributions can even somewhat compare to Ubuntu, it seems that Ubuntu is shortchanging users when it comes to fakeraid. In other words, if after the last 3 current distributions we are still having to use workarounds with fakeraid, does that mean it's going to always be that way? I may be wrong, but I don't think fakeraid has ever worked out of the box in Ubuntu. Is this just not a big enough priority for Ubuntu? And as for people who are using fakeraid and may be willing to change from Windows to Ubuntu, I would imaging the first time they discover they can't dual boot with Windows and Ubuntu without what might be a difficult workaround for them to implement depending on their knowledge of linux, they may just give up and go to another distribution which in the end hurts Canonical. Another thing to note is that the version of CentOS i tried was released in 2007, and still successfully detected and installed on the array. It's hard to swallow that in 2010 Ubuntu still hasn't gotten there. If this was an old or outdated technology, I could almost understand, but you can hardly find a current motherboard now that doesn't implement fakeraid, and regardless of whether linux software raid is better than fakeraid, fakeraid has its merits too, and I'm sure is used very often as it can be setup much quicker than linux software raid. That's just my 2 cents, but again I appreciate everything you're doing to try and help us with this.

[Bug 447725] Re: grub nice 'recordfail' feature doesn't work for hibernation
Just out of curiosity, did you happen to edit your /etc/init.d/rc file and change concurrency=none to concurrency=shell? I did this because it supposedly helps ubuntu boot faster by spreading the boot scripts across two cores if you have a dual core processor. I had it set for weeks before I experienced the behaviour of ubuntu 9.10 stopping at the grub boot screen. Once the behaviour showed itself, I edited /boot/grub/grubenv to recordfail=0 manually only to have it reset back to recordfail=1 after a reboot just like you said. Once I edited /etc/init.d/rc and set the concurrency value back to "=none" just on a whim, and manually changed /boot/grub/grubenv manually again to recordfail=0, I didn't have anymore issues.
