Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
The Herd1 LiveCD boots fine on my ThinkPad A20m and everything-1 works
fine running from the LiveCD: I am able to mount my normal swap and home
partitions and use them, as I am doing right now.
The -1 is the installer - it "goes away" after step 4, and never returns
(in other words, I get prompted for localization settings, and nothing
more).
None of the log files are "interesting", as far as I can tell. Please
let me know what I can attach to assist with this.
Restarting X (ctrl-alt-backspace) appears to work fine - that is, I can
continue with my LiveCD session.
Note that this machine has three partitions: /dev/hda1, ext3 (destined
to be /); /dev/hda2, swap; /dev/hda3, ext3 (home). Herd1 installation
never gets to the partitioner (as far as I can tell), but I thought
partition information might be an interesting data point.
I will continue running under LiveCD until Herd2, then try again (I
cannot use daily builds as this machine does not have a DVD reader). I
cannot revert to my / installation, as I made the mistake of running
"update-manager -c -d" a few days ago, and got bitten by a bad libc6 bug
(AFAICT).
