Did the test on Lucid like this: - created two identical qcow2 images: kvm-img create -f qcow2 disk1.qcow2 1048576512 kvm-img create -f qcow2 disk2.qcow2 1048576512
disk image sizes 1048576512 bytes = 1048576*1000+512 (formula from the test case) - first installed Lucid server i386 to reproduce the problem: kvm -m 512 -cdrom /store/Kits/isos/lucid/ubuntu-10.04.1-server-i386.iso -hda disk1.qcow2 -hdb disk2.qcow2 -vnc 172.16.21.1:1 -cpu qemu32 - created RAID1 on sda1 and sdb1 (two partitions which stretch to the end of each disk) - after reboot got the (initramfs) prompt and the errors - recreated the images, reinstalled the latest Lucid: kvm -m 512 -cdrom /store/Kits/isos/lucid/mini.iso -hda disk1.qcow2 -hdb disk2.qcow2 -vnc 172.16.21.1:1 -cpu qemu32 - mini.iso taken from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso , and booted with "cli apt-setup/proposed=true" parameters - after install the guest booted just fine, RAID members were sync'ed, no problems. Looks like the fix is working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569900 Title: partman sometimes creates partitions such that there is ambiguity between whether the superblock is on the disk device or the partition device -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
