Public bug reported: I attempted to install 6.06 on an IBM T41p for dual boot with Windows XP pro. Everything seemed fine until I clicked "install". Partitioning went fine and then the installer crashed and I received the text below. It asked me to attach /var/log/installer/syslog, /var/log/syslog, and /var/log/partman . I do not know how to get to these files. Please help me get these, I am new to Linux and need some guidance. Thank you.
We're sorry; the installer crashed. Please file a new bug report at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+filebug (do not attach your details to any existing bug) and a developer will attend to the problem as soon as possible. To help the developers understand what went wrong, include the following detail in your bug report, and attach the files /var/log/installer/syslog, /var/log/syslog, and /var/log/partman: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 130, in ?Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 130, in ? install(sys.argv[1]) File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 55, in install ret = wizard.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 266, in run self.process_step() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 755, in process_step self.mountpoints_to_summary() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 1114, in mountpoints_to_summary self.progress_loop() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 550, in progress_loop raise RuntimeError, ("Install failed with exit code %s\n%s" % RuntimeError: Install failed with exit code 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 1263, in ? if install.run(): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 284, in run if not self.copy_all():Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 130, in ? install(sys.argv[1]) File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 55, in install ret = wizard.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 266, in run self.process_step() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 755, in process_step self.mountpoints_to_summary() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 1114, in mountpoints_to_summary self.progress_loop() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontenTraceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 130, in ? install(sys.argv[1]) File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 55, in install ret = wizard.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 266, in run self.process_step() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 755, in process_step self.mountpoints_to_summary() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 1114, in mountpoints_to_summary self.progress_loop() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 550, in progress_loop raise RuntimeError, ("Install failed with exit code %s\n%s" % RuntimeError: Install failed with exit code 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 1263, in ? if install.run(): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 284, in run if not self.copy_all(): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 469, in copy_all os.lchown(targetpath, st.st_uid, st.st_gid) OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/target/boot' d/gtkui.py", line 550, in progress_loop raise RuntimeError, ("Install failed with exit code %s\n%s" % RuntimeError: Install failed with exit code 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 1263, in ? if install.run(): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 284, in run if not self.copy_all(): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 469, in copy_all os.lchown(targetpath, st.st_uid, st.st_gid) OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/target/boot' File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 469, in copy_all os.lchown(targetpath, st.st_uid, st.st_gid) OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/target/boot' install(sys.argv[1]) File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 55, in install ret = wizard.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 266, in run self.process_step() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 755, in process_step self.mountpoints_to_summary() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 1114, in mountpoints_to_summary self.progress_loop() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 550, in progress_loop raise RuntimeError, ("Install failed with exit code %s\n%s" % RuntimeError: Install failed with exit code 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 1263, in ? if install.run(): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 284, in run if not self.copy_all(): File "/usr/share/ubiquity/install.py", line 469, in copy_all os.lchown(targetpath, st.st_uid, st.st_gid) OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/target/boot' ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Intaller crash https://launchpad.net/bugs/64192 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
