Public bug reported: Binary package hint: debian-installer
1. Install Fedora 10 (It will create two partitions, one for /boot and another for the LVM volume which includes two logical volumes, one for the root filesystem and another for the swap). 2. Download linux and initrd.gz from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/gtk/ubuntu-installer/amd64/ (Done on 8th March 2009 around 8:00 UTC) 3. Boot the machine with the Ubuntu kernel and initrd. 4. Start the installation and select 'guided partition' using the whole disk and LVM. 5. Wait for ever (I give up after 15 minutes). The log says: [...] partman: Found volume group "VolGroup00" using metadata type lvm2 partman-lvm: 2 logical volume(s) in volume group "VolGroup00" partman-lvm: Can't remove open logical volume "LogVol00" partman-lvm: Can't remove open logical volume "LogVol01" partman-lvm: 0 logical volume(s) in volume group "VolGroup00" now active Pressing Ctrl+C in the installer, the partitioner is launched again, but it stalls at 52% of its initial progress bar and I need to reboot and start again. The only solution I found was to remove the LVM partiton manually and reboot, so the installer doesn't find the old LVM volume. ** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- netboot installer is not able to overwrite existing LVM partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339453 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
