Public bug reported: During the installation of Ubuntu 6.10 (from a dvd that came with the german magazine c't) the installer wouldn't let me continue with the selection of filesystems, because it complained that I hadn't selected a root fs. Though I _had_ selected a partition as root fs (with the "format" flag checked).
I could continue the installation after formatting the new partition myself with gparted started from the live dvd. I *think* the mess might have something to do with my aborting the installer after partitioning (which I did because I was confused about the renaming of the partitions... I first deleted partition /dev/hdc7 and created a new partition in its place but didn't realize this process renamed the partitions hdc8, 9 and 10). Then I restarted the installer and selected the new partition (which was now called hdc10) as root fs, but the installer complained about no root fs although. At the moment I don't have enough space left on my hd to try to reproduce the error. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- installer complains about 'no root fs' although it's selected https://launchpad.net/bugs/78456 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
