It is possible on my PC to install Ubuntu2104beta without encountering this behaviour and I can successfully install the Ubuntu flavour.
This bug does happen with the Kubuntu beta and I find it is impossible to install the Kubuntu flavour from the beta iso. It is worth noting that mesa is present in both Ubuntu and Kubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1920665 Title: Ubiquity KDE crash on try/install and from live session with "malloc(): unaligned tcache chunk detected" Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in mesa source package in Hirsute: Confirmed Status in ubiquity source package in Hirsute: Confirmed Bug description: ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 21.04 Package: ubiquity 21.04.11 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.11.0-11.12-generic 5.11.0 Uname: Linux 5.11.0-11-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu60 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CasperVersion: 1.460 CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Sun Mar 21 11:53:44 2021 InstallCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/kubuntu.seed maybe-ubiquity quiet splash --- LiveMediaBuild: Kubuntu 21.04 "Hirsute Hippo" - Alpha amd64 (20210321) SourcePackage: ubiquity UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) Since approximately 16/03/2021 ubiquity from maybe-ubiquity (try install screen) and from the live session is crashing on launch or shortly after. Cases where the crash can be triggered: - Using a Virtualbox VM, where graphics acceleration is handled by mesa with LLVMPIPE - Start the ISO on real hardware in 'safe graphics mode' Cases where the crash is not encountered: - Start the ISO on real intel (HD graphics) hardware with full acceleration. NOTE: The crash can be avoided by downgrading MESA 21.0.x packages to the previous 20.3.4 in hirsute. Try/Install crash: Screen fails to start, or starts then crashes on any user action. The user is presented with: "Installation failed - The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now be run so that you may investigate the problem or try installing again" Live session crash: The installer does not start from the desktop icon. Starting ubiquity from the terminal results in an "Aborted (core dumped)" message and nothing else.
