Public bug reported: Trying to install the Xubuntu 20200408 amd64 ISO from USB, Try (safe graphics mode) on Lenovo E495 (AMD Ryzen 7 mobile CPU) - not sure if the CPU might have something to do with this but probably not.
Nothing obvious in the logs I've checked. Currently the system has been sitting idle for almost 2 hours with the ubiquity GUI showing "Saving installed packages...". The root file-system directory structure hasn't been created: root@xubuntu:~# mount | grep rootfs /dev/mapper/ELLOE00-rootfs on /tmp/tmp.woX6753mbL type ext4 (rw,relatime) root@xubuntu:~# find /tmp/tmp.woX6753mbL/ /tmp/tmp.woX6753mbL/ /tmp/tmp.woX6753mbL/lost+found ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: ubiquity 20.04.9 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-21.25-generic 5.4.27 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-21-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: zfs zunicode zavl icp zcommon znvpair ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu24 Architecture: amd64 CasperVersion: 1.443 Date: Wed Apr 8 19:36:52 2020 InstallCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/xubuntu.seed quiet splash --- LiveMediaBuild: Xubuntu 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Beta amd64 (20200408) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=C.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: ubiquity UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug focal ubiquity-20.04.9 xubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1871689 Title: Installer hangs idle before populating root-fs with directories, "Saving installed packages..."
