The previous experience was with the Jaunty alpha-3 live-CD. The daily 0203.1 live-CD (amd64) displays the same behaviour, and in a much more simplified scenario. No use of LVM or encryption, just:
/dev/sda1 Windows Recovery ntfs ~9GB /dev/sda2 Windows Vista ntfs ~28GB /dev/sda3 Linux swap ~4GB /dev/sda4 extended /dev/sda5 Linux ext3 ~125MB /dev/sda6 Linux ext3 And during manual partitioning assign sda5 to /boot/, and sda6 to /. When the partitioning begins it fails silently an returns to the Wizard partitioning page. Checking /proc/partitions reveals that both sda5 and sda6 are now missing: Before: major minor #blocks name 7 0 690608 loop0 8 0 390711384 sda 8 1 9764864 sda1 8 2 28738560 sda2 8 3 4194304 sda3 8 4 1 sda4 8 5 122880 sda5 8 6 347889719 sda6 After: major minor #blocks name 7 0 690608 loop0 8 0 390711384 sda 8 1 9764864 sda1 8 2 28738560 sda2 8 3 4194304 sda3 8 4 1 sda4 ** Attachment added: "syslog for daily 0203.1" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22011505/syslog -- Separate /boot/ partition fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324987 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
