[Bug 237051] Re: installer hangs on starting partition editor
Oh wow. While posting the above, i left the hanging installer open. Turns out, the partition editor does start eventually, after about 10 minutes of playing dead. I wonder what its doing all that time... no hd activity is shown, nothing. The text-based installer took a while before showing the partion editor, too, but not *that* long. I restarted ubiquity with -d -- interestingly, this time, no error messages is shown, as was the case before. Now it just sits there (and probably will show parted at some point). Maybe the original error went away because there is no longer an NTFS-Partition with an XP-Pro on it... maybe that's what triggered the original problem. I'm a bit confused. Anyway, I'll attach /var/log/installer/debug for good measure. PS: i did run an integrity check on the cd this time. no errors. ** Attachment added: debug http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15121595/debug -- installer hangs on starting partition editor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237051 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 237051] Re: installer hangs on starting partition editor
Is this a standard 8.04 Ubuntu desktop CD or a remastered one? Have you run the Check CD for defects option? Can you please post the full /var/log/syslog and /var/log/partman files from a failing install attempt? Thanks! ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- installer hangs on starting partition editor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237051 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 237051] Re: installer hangs on starting partition editor
I used a standard 8.04 Ubuntu desktop CD, freshly downloaded and burned; Same for the Kubuntu try. I have not run the check from the boot menu, but did verify the burn. Also, the same problem occurred with both, ubuntu and kubuntu, thus a corrupted disk seems unlikely as a cause. In the mean time, I have used the alternate text-based installer, and it worked. However, before and after the partition editor is shown, it shows a blank (blue) screen for a LONG time (several minutes). That fits with the experience from running gparted directly from a live CD session: it works, but takes long to show partitions. To get you full copies of /var/log/syslog and /var/log/partman, I'd have to rerun the installer - aborting it just in time not to kill my shiny new installation. I'll see if I can muster the motivation to do this :) If I do, I'll also Check CD for defects first. -- installer hangs on starting partition editor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237051 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
