Just to make it clear, When a partition (/dev/sda2) that contains the previous install was selected for this new installation (after setting the type-ext4 and mountpoint to /) the next window said the following 'The file system on /dev/sda2 assigned to / has not been marked for formatting. Directories containing system files (/etc, /lib, /usr, /var, ...) that already exist under any defined mountpoint will be deleted during the install. ..' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1056815 Title: 'Could not restore packages from the previous install' error message when installed from live usb To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1056815/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Perhaps there isn't an /etc/apt/sources.list file in /target/ubiquity- apt-clone/apt-clone-state-ubuntu.tar.gz? If you can recreate this it would be helpful to have the /target /ubiquity-apt-clone/apt-clone-state-ubuntu.tar.gz file attached to this bug report. Additionally, detailed steps about how you ran into this bug would be quite helpful.
