Like verroitn, and some others who had the bug (install error at 88%, during import doc etc.), I'm French, and my Windows is in French... And the french version of Windows XP Home Edition is called : Windows XP Édition Familiale. And by the way each version of Windows XP or Vista have an Édition in it. I have two users, Arthur and Invité (invité = guest account) and the registered user is called : Arthur S. Other details : in the boot menu, where we choose the verbose mode and everything, each é is a theta (θ) (and this menu is in french, even if I ask Wubi to install in English).

Could someone who is experiencing this bug follow the instructions Agostino mentioned in: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/195905/comments/14 but when you see the install window, hit ctrl-alt-f2 and add `set -x` to the top of /usr/lib/ubiquity/migration-assistant/ma-apply (sudo nano /usr/lib/ubiquity/migration-assistant/ma-apply). You should have some time to do this as it gets called after the file copy procedure runs. When the install fails copy out the log files and attach them using the above instructions.

If you are still experiencing this I would need (and extremely quickly if you want it fixed before release): * You have to uninstall and reinstall (make sure to use a release-candidate ISO or later) * You have to choose verbose mode (at reboot, after Ubuntu, press esc, and select verbose mode. * Post your windows username (I am interested whether any special char is in there) * Attach c:\ubuntu\install\custom-installation\preseed.cfg * When installation stops press ctrl+alt+f2 and run: sudo sh /custom-installation/hooks/failure-command.sh * Attach c:\ubuntu\installation-logs.zip -- migration-assistant exposes special handling of spaces to the preseeding interface https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195905 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

I experience a similar problem. I use Windows XP, and when I try to install Ubuntu 8.04 with wubi I get stuck at the screen claiming that there were no users or operatings systems suitable for importing from. Up until this point my Windows account name was Kasper Primdal, but when I read that the bug might be caused by the space in the username I first changed my username to Kasper, and afterwards created a second account in Windows test. I read several forum threads about this, and finally found this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=719157 pointing me here. So this is a log from my latest installation attempt, created via the step-by-step procedure described in the thread above. ** Attachment added: installation-log.zip http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13016448/installation-log.zip -- migration-assistant exposes special handling of spaces to the preseeding interface https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195905 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

Marking as Invalid per the discussion from #ubuntu-installer below: 09:49:05 evand cjwatson: before I embark on this task, any objection to me modifying debconf-set-selections to include an option to use the escape capability? I can get m-a to work with spaces in the key name via escape, but wubi fails on debconf-set-selection as its not using the capability. 09:49:22 cjwatson spaces in the *key* name? 09:49:47 cjwatson evand: can we avoid using spaces in question names? I really don't think it's a good idea ... 09:50:49 evand cjwatson: I don't think I can remove the Windows username from the keys in question, so my options are to either use spaces or continue to replace them with a colon and have wubi carry that wart. Would you prefer the latter? 09:51:10 cjwatson I think it's definitely preferable to replace them with something 09:51:48 evand ok, works for me. I'll have Ago make the change and leave m-a as is. 09:51:51 cjwatsonSo, what do we need to store in a variable template? Of course we need a 09:51:54 cjwatsonname to identify the template.

Similar problem with Hardy Beta migration assist. No Forward button and no option to continue but C-A-Bsp which yields same as Cancel. Cancel produces a CD live user install that attempts to complete the Wubi install process at each subsequent boot and fails at the same point. Tried Wubi+Hardy Daily Alternate iso but that never finishes building the swap.disk and has to be terminated by taskmaster and removed. (ubuntu disks folder shows boot folder, shared folder, root.disk and usr.disk) Config is i386 Windows 2k on Primary Master, Gutsy 7.10 on Primary Slave (I know but there are reasons) both are independent and accessible only via BIOS at boot. (non Dual-boot config) Hardy attempt to install is to Primary slave empty FAT32 partition (logical). Primary slave config: (250Gig) sdb1 - system (20Gig) sdb2 - home (5Gig) sdb3 - swap (2Gig) (1.5 gig RAM) sdb4 - extended sdb5 - ext2 70Gig sdb6 - Fat32 (15 for Hardy rest for share with windoz) sdb7 - Fat32 share with windoz 70Gig. forcing the install never gets past step 4 of 6, (attempting to prepare /dev/sda1 partition). Problem installing to Fat32?? why? will be very common need I think. -- migration-assistant exposes special handling of spaces to the preseeding interface https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195905 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
