[Bug 727783] Re: Installing packages from CD repository fails due to changed CD-ROM default mount point
Good news:) I've managed to install the system yesterday. Only trouble is I've done 2 things and I'm not so sure which one of them actually cured my problem: 1. I found out that my BIOS is obsolete so I've upgraded it to its latest version 2. During the installation from the alternate CD for 11.04 Kubutnu (downloaded 12.07.2010 around 5pm GMT) I've created a symlink (ln -s /cdrom/ /media/) in 2nd terminal session. The installation went flawlessly until the end, the new system booted with no issues. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/727783 Title: Installing packages from CD repository fails due to changed CD-ROM default mount point To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/727783/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 727783] Re: Installing packages from CD repository fails due to changed CD-ROM default mount point
Hi guys, I've probably bumped to this bug as well, I've downloaded it yesterday (don't know what build it is thought). Checked the CD for errors - none found. Tried the workaround when I had the message popping up I've switched to tty 2, the CDROM was mounted /cdrom/ and i could see the files, however there was nothing in /media/, nevertheless creating a simlink in /media/ for cdrom and cd'ing into did not work. How can I do it before installation? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/727783 Title: Installing packages from CD repository fails due to changed CD-ROM default mount point To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/727783/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 727783] Re: Installing packages from CD repository fails due to changed CD-ROM default mount point
Just bumped into this bug, I guess: clean install of Kubuntu 11.04 AMD64 using alternate cd, full disk with guided partitioning. Failed twice, checked the cdrom for errors and found none, spotted this report. Workaround for me was symlink + cd'ing to /media/cdrom (just in case the link is removed on umount). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/727783 Title: Installing packages from CD repository fails due to changed CD-ROM default mount point -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 727783] Re: Installing packages from CD repository fails due to changed CD-ROM default mount point
I have the same problem on the alternate amd64 iso. This is after I've spent 3 weekends trying to install an upgrade on my previously broken 10.04. What a sad state of affaire. It seems to me that the repository list in apt is still set to look for the CD with that name. So much more time wasted for such a little issue - testing??? Please update me on how to go forward.

I appear to be having a similar problem on 64 bit alternate installer. I tried ln -s 'ing /cdrom to /media/cdrom at very beginning of install I can see contents in /media/cdrom and at /cdrom I selected 'guided using entire drive' without LVM the message is: 'Please insert the disc labeled: 'Ubuntu 11.04 _Natty Narwhal_ - Release amd64 (20110426)' in the drive '/media/cdrom/' and press enter.

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.5.23 --- ubiquity (2.5.23) natty; urgency=low [ Evan Dandrea ] * Ensure we always have an automatic partitioning option selected. * Merge in latest change to apt-clone from Michael Vogt: - Current apt_pkg API methods. - Better command line argument parsing. - Set DPkg::Chroot-Directory (LP 727758). * Do not attempt to proceed to a second page with the biggest_free option (LP: #727842, LP: #652852). This will change once we have an interface for the biggest_free option. * If the partition table is full and a copy of Windows exists, replace the resize option with a copy of wubi.exe to the Windows startup folder, followed by a reboot. * Temporary fix for translations with carriage returns (LP: #730498). * Update translations from Launchpad. * Automatic update of included source packages: console-setup 1.57ubuntu10. [ Colin Watson ] * Set Dir::Media::MountPath as well as Acquire::cdrom::mount (in line with base-installer), and pass all the options set by configure_apt to python-apt as well so that attempts to install packages from python-apt will behave consistently (LP: #727783). [ Julien Lavergne ] * bin/ubiquity-dm: - Wait lxsession before launching the panel, to have theming support. (LP: #684802) * src/panel/panel.c - Load lxpanel background for the panel when it's available. -- Evan DandreaMon, 07 Mar 2011 09:16:26 + ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu Natty) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/727783 Title: Installing packages from CD repository fails due to changed CD-ROM default mount point -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
