Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Target system has two existing NTFS partitions. The first is supposed
to be FAT32 for a future FreeDOS install and the second is WinXP. Test
performed with Xubuntu Herd5 liveCD. If I change the first partition to
FAT32 during manual partitioning, the migration assistant subsequently
fails.
Relevant terminal output is as follows:
