It looks like the failure is actually in /etc/kernel/postinst.d/kdump- tools.

BTW: The image used is http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer- amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz I've already added the 'set -x' as shown above. The 1st line of the output shows, how it has been done (because there is no vi[m] available in the install environment), and the remaining lines show the output after resuming the install (I guess, the installer redirects everything to /var/log/syslog, otherwise I wonder, where else the output gets captured.). Anyway, I can see two lines prefixed with a '+', so I guess, that 'set -x' does what it should, but there is simply not more than this. IIUC, it does not hurt, if it fails - can be done later/on demand as well. So why not append a '|| true' or remove it completely from postinstall ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1687791 Title: Install of kdump-tools fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/makedumpfile/+bug/1687791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1687791] Re: Install of kdump-tools fails
Hello, I am surprised by a few things : first of all, linux-crashdump, hence kdump-tools, is not installed by default on a server install. So you must have added that step somehow. I have just installed Xenial using the mini.iso network install and kdump-tool is not installed after completion. I installed it without any issue, rebooted and the functionality works as expected. Now your output shows that it is the kernel's post-install trigger that fails, so this is where you should but the -x (add it to the sh -e shebang at the top of the script). Then you can run the following & paste the output here : /etc/kernel/postinst.d/kdump-tools $(uname -r) FYI, this script is responsible for building the smaller initrd used by kdump when rebooting after a crash. ...Louis -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1687791 Title: Install of kdump-tools fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/makedumpfile/+bug/1687791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
