[Bug 740558] Re: Kubuntu Natty installer crashed
I experience this today and you can get around it, I used a USB key to install Lubuntu 11.10 and had the same problem during install. If you bring up a console and run an apt-get update apt-get upgrade (obviously with an internet connection) then try the install again it works. Whatever was causing it must have been fixed.

[Bug 740558] Re: Kubuntu Natty installer crashed
Reopening: 1. Created an unetbootin USB key from the release xubuntu-11.04-desktop- amd64.iso (md5 verified). 2. Booted the USB and selected Install Xubuntu in boot menu. 3. Chose to install the extra packages and download updates (wifi did not catch-up, so I plugged ethernet cable and installer detected net successfully). 4. Repartitioned manually all space as 256MB ext4 /boot + 4GB swap + 304GB btrfs / 5. Created user and chose autologon and no home encryption (using acer notebook disk lock in bios instead). The installer crashed at Checking for packages to remove. According to syslog: plugininstall.py: File /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/cache.py, line 279, in _fetch_archives plugininstall.py: LockFailedException: Failed to lock /target/var/cache/apt/archives/lock Will now retest if it is reproducible, and if apt-get upgrade helps. Also this bug probably affected Ubuntu 10.10 already, according to imho duplicate bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/743359, and another report https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/152359. Btw, what is the bug tag policy? Should I remove i386+kubuntu tags because the bug is not limited to them, or add amd64+ubuntu+xubuntu tags because the bug affects them too? ** Attachment added: /var/log/syslog (let me know if you need /var/log/partman too) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/740558/+attachment/2151795/+files/syslog ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to ubiquity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/740558 Title: Kubuntu Natty installer crashed -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Clarification: that was the most recent alpha of natty-desktop-i386, not a daily build. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/740558 Title: Kubuntu Natty installer crashed -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
