Public bug reported: I created a USB installation device for Ubuntu Server 14.04.2 (amd64) using the "Startup Disk Creator".
The USB device boots up successfully but the installation fails as the cd-rom can not be mounted. There is a workaround for this problem (http://askubuntu.com/a/609648/403981): Since the USB device /dev/sdc1 was already mounted to /media, I had to unmount the device on a console. After this, the installation program could successfully mount /dev/sdc1 to /cdrom and the installation could be continued. ** 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/1450858 Title: fails to mount when installing ubuntu server from usb device To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1450858/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
