bump! :) ** Description changed:
My chosen root parition is a btrfs, which is has been formatted previously. Many other distros live in that partition under different subvolumes. Prior to installation, I created a fresh subvolume "ubuntu" and made it the default so that when the installer mounts the BTRFS partition, it sees a fresh space. Two cases crashed: 1) BTRFS root, with separate ext4 /boot and bootloader installation to my Flash drive (sdb) (beacuse I dont want the installer to touch my existing grub config, which is managed by other fellow distros. 2) BTRFS root, without separate ext4 boot partition, and bootloader installation to the BTRFS root. My /var/log/syslog: http://pastebin.com/80FR04sv + My /var/log/partman: http://pastebin.com/WrZSsseH - My /var/log/partman: http://pastebin.com/WrZSsseH + Sorry I missed an important thing: The real reason for crash appears to + be because I chose *NOT TO FORMAT* root or boot partitions. Installation + was successful when I chose *YES* to format (ext4 root), but didnt try + out with BTRFS root as I couldnt risk the a data loss due to the format + operation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1309332 Title: Installer crash on un(pre)formatted btrsf root install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1309332/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
