I just had the installer crash while upgrading my 11.10 to 12.10. I suspect that this is because it ran out of room in my boot partition. Since I set up these partitions myself (some years ago. When I partitioned the boot partition could hold around 5 versions of the Linux kernel. Today I have space trouble maintaining 2.) I'm matching it to the manual partition case, but note that I did not go into the advanced install options - I chose the upgrade radio button and trusted ubiquity to handle things cleanly.
I fear that I shall find that this hosed my existing install, so that I'll have to figure out recovery before regaining access to my data. The upgrade path also prompts me to create a new user on the system, which suggests that existing users won't be preserved. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77966 Title: MASTER: Should warn about insufficient disk space (manual partitioning) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/77966/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
