[Bug 1847748] Re: installer crashed - Cannot resolve path /dev/sdN - Failed to mount /target
This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 19.10.20 --- ubiquity (19.10.20) eoan; urgency=medium [ Jean-Baptiste Lallement ] * zsys-setup: Force a re-read of the partition table before using the disk (LP: #1847748) [ Iain Lane ] * zsys-setup: Mark packages to kept in the init phase, rather than finalize. Finalize runs after ubiquity has removed files from packages which it has decided the target system isn't going to need. It's too late for us to try to save things then.

I can reproduce this problem and similar on a system with fast drives and going quickly through the timezone and user details steps. We start altering the disk while partman hasn't yet finish to prepare it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1847748 Title: installer crashed - Cannot resolve path /dev/sdN - Failed to mount /target To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1847748/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
