[Bug 889647] Re: ubiquity 'rm -rf's all directories in filesystems mounted during install!
It's really not supposed to do that, and I can't make out from the code where it might be doing that; it's supposed to remove only a limited set of directories it specifically knows about. Are you sure it wasn't /usr/backup2 or /var/backup2 or something? ** Package changed: ubiquity (Ubuntu) = partman-target (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: partman-target (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Critical -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/889647 Title: ubiquity 'rm -rf's all directories in filesystems mounted during install!

It was most certainly called /backup2, in the hopes of avoiding this exact issue and to avoid interaction with any important directories. Unfortunately it's been a long time and I was too flustered trying to recover my data to think of retaining the log.

If you have the installer syslog from this incident, that would be very helpful. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/889647 Title: ubiquity 'rm -rf's all directories in filesystems mounted during install!
