I confirm that this bug still exists on the 16.04.1 image when installing ubuntu gnome in an Asus Zenbook UX305. The workaround of installing directly without passing through the "live session" seems to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1579454 Title: Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 installer crashes during either copying files or installing the system steps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1579454/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1579454] Re: Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 installer crashes during either copying files or installing the system steps
I have the same issue. It seems to be a permission problem caused because the "ubuntu" user runs /usr/lib/ubiquity/localechooser/post-base-installer (instead of root). So, when the script try to execute: sed -i 's/^# LANG=$/LANG="'es_ES.UTF-8'"/' /target/etc/default/locale echo $? --> 4 "sed" command fails because it can not open a temporal file in /target/etc/default/ folder. A workaround for this is to run ubiquity as root by using "sudo" command: sudo ubiquity Best regards! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1579454 Title: Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 installer crashes during either copying files or installing the system steps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1579454/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1579454] Re: Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 installer crashes during either copying files or installing the system steps
It looks like you are trying to replace the OS on an existing partition and the permissions are messed up somehow. Can you mount the partition and provide the output of ls -al /mnt/etc/default? You should be able to mount it with: sudo -s mount -t ext4 /dev/sda1 /mnt Assuming the partition in question is number 1, otherwise you will need to change the number. ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1579454 Title: Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 installer crashes during either copying files or installing the system steps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1579454/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sadly, the stated workaround does not help me, since I need to unlock an existing LUKS partition before starting the setup process.
