Lance, it looks like xnox has assigned himself this bug and is working
on it. I've not run across it, but looking at the comments it seems like
a certain partition setup is needed. That said, your obviously keeping
your eye on it, which is a good thing. If your testing during the
cadence week and slamming into this bug, just file the result with the
bug report and use the workarounds to keep going. There might other
issues plaguing the installer.
I know it can feel frustrating to see bugs sit, but keep at it. Make
sure the devs can reproduce, and ask for status updates or offer to help
as needed. Recently, jackson and phil have successfully been able to
work with the testdrive and dev folks to get fixes in for testdrive and
virtualbox. It took them a bit and they definitely kept at it, asking
different people to help along the way. It's just a recent example of
being helpful and showing concern for the bug in question. Keep plugging
away. Making a thread dedicated to the bug on the mailing list is
another way to raise visibility amongst everyone and help you (and all
of us) to drive the bug.

there are things getting fixed, but not many. there doesn't seem to be
enough testing though, even just to get some bugs confirmed. some bugs
in the iso tracker have been "new" for a few months.

Do you have a bug report # for that ubiquity bug?
I'm aware of this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1080701
It's been bugging many of us since mid-November but we obviously
no longer care about the ability to install and/or test the images
until Beta falls :^(
I hate to be the turd in the punch-bowl, but why bother testing if
nothing ever gets fixed?

PS: this is an indication that "cadence" should be renamed, maybe
to "we'll look at it later"!

Hi good people,
as we run through cadence testing, there does seem to be a
lack of testing. Can I ask that people do test out the DeskTop
versions for lubuntu and xubuntu as we seem to have a gremlin
in ubiquity that may only affect our Virtual Machines. Also
when you take the time out to try the 'alternate' ISOs for
lubuntu, would you also please check out the basic
ubuntu-server ISO, as it is required for us to maintain
support for the lubuntu-alternate ISO series.
Regards,
Phill.
