Public bug reported: Binary package hint: debian-installer
alternate-amd86 beta 1 and daily as of April 10th: on one of my machines (physical hardware), the installer hangs before showing the first partitioning dialog; the first console just shows an empty blue (beta) or violet (daily) screen, no error messages in any console fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x27f7a537 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 13 102400 7 HPFS/NTFS Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/sda2 13 12859 103186432 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/sda3 12860 12981 979965 83 Linux /dev/sda4 12982 108821 769831847 5 Extended /dev/sda5 12982 98084 683589816 8e Linux LVM /dev/sda6 98085 100634 20482843+ 83 Linux /dev/sda7 100635 102165 12288000 83 Linux /dev/sda8 102428 104386 15727616 83 Linux /dev/sda9 104386 106998 20979712 83 Linux /dev/sda10 106998 108821 14647296 83 Linux Disk /dev/sdb: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x0a63814e Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 1 38913 312568641 8e Linux LVM pvscan PV /dev/sdb1 VG vg2 lvm2 [298,09 GiB / 138,32 GiB free] PV /dev/sda5 VG vg1 lvm2 [651,92 GiB / 23,86 GiB free] Total: 2 [950,00 GiB] / in use: 2 [950,00 GiB] / in no VG: 0 [0 ] lvscan inactive '/dev/vg2/multimedia' [100,00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg2/backup' [50,00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg2/vmanager1' [9,77 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/ubuntu904' [25,00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/myhome' [97,94 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/virt' [169,70 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/swap' [3,72 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/uranus' [240,00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/test' [2,00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/ubuntu910' [13,97 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/ubuntu1004' [13,97 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/suse113' [15,00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/ubuntu1010' [25,00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/kvmubuntu1010' [12,00 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/vg1/kvmfedora4' [9,77 GiB] inherit I am willing to provide further information but need advise on where to find the logging files of the installer. ** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/757487 Title: natty: installer hangs while reading lvm partition list -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
