[Bug 654447] Re: [Maverick] EIDE hard-disk not listed in the installer
I've run the alternate installer directly from a mastered CD-ROM and not from a bootable USB flash drive. With the CD-ROM the Maxtor HD is successfully recognized and I managed to install Maverick on it. It's very strange that the SAME ISO ran from a USB flash drive do not find the Maxtor HD! In a few minutes I'll reboot and try the parted_devices and dmraid commands. -- [Maverick] EIDE hard-disk not listed in the installer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/654447 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 654447] Re: [Maverick] EIDE hard-disk not listed in the installer
Actually, that doesn't make sense because in that case you'd still see it in the partman log. Please disregard that last comment. What is displayed if you switch to the console on Alt-F2 and type 'parted_devices'? What is the output of 'dmraid -r -c'? -- [Maverick] EIDE hard-disk not listed in the installer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/654447 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
