Public bug reported: Binary package hint: debian-installer
Using the Karmic Alpha 1 alternate 386 cd to make a persistent installation on a USB stick I noticed that the swap partition of my internal hdd automatically gets selected in manual partitioning. When selecting not to use it and proceeding the installer wants to write changes to that hdd (?mbr). A way around is to deselect the swap partition, leave manual partitioning, enter it again - this time the swap isn't selected and you can proceed making changes to only the USB drive (without making changes to the hdd). Also after the installation the default drive for the bootloader should in this case be the USB stick, not the first hdd. ** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- when installing with the alternate cd the swap partition gets selected automatically in manual partitioning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379169 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
