[Bug 60517] Re: LiveCD thrashes if hard disk malformatted
As neither we nor submitter can reproduce this any more, I'm rejecting this bug. Please do reopen if you can reproduce with latest edgy. ** Changed in: casper (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Rejected -- LiveCD thrashes if hard disk malformatted https://launchpad.net/bugs/60517 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 60517] Re: LiveCD thrashes if hard disk malformatted
Sorry, I don't have the means to try to repro this any longer; as a workaround, I removed the partitions which caused this. The hard disk now has a regular Dapper installation which does not thrash. The hard disk had been in use on a different computer, I guess probably with different hard disk geometry, so it could be that the image was just invalid for this BIOS (but I obviously? don't know what I'm talking about here, just speculating). -- LiveCD thrashes if hard disk malformatted https://launchpad.net/bugs/60517 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Could you try this with an Edgy live CD? It could just be mdadm/evms trying to start up, and Edgy doesn't do that any more ... ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: ubiquity => casper -- LiveCD thrashes if hard disk malformatted https://launchpad.net/bugs/60517 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 60517] Re: LiveCD thrashes if hard disk malformatted
Just to make this a little more specific: I find it a bit surprising that the supposedly autonomous Live CD should care one bit what's on the hard drive of the host system, at least during initial bootstrapping. Argh, this is probably not an Ubiquity bug, sorry about that. Could you please refile to the correct package, whatever that is? Thanks. -- LiveCD thrashes if hard disk malformatted https://launchpad.net/bugs/60517 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
