I fell on my face performing this:

I think I didn't quite know how to restart rsyslog :^(
I'm tired now but maybe I'll try just using ubiquity -d tomorrow.
Look, I'm no dev by any means, but I believe this bug is tagged
The error pops up from time to time on at least two architectures. Here
is partman from PPC. #24 above also recommended getting the log
installer but there is no such log that I can find. syslog will
follow in the next comment.

This error message means that one of the partitions on the disk is in
use, so the kernel is refusing to update its internal partition map
because this would clobber the in-use filesystems. This is not a kernel
bug, it looks like an installer bug.
Please reproduce this error, and attach the
Being an intermittent bug, it just popped up again:

Hi, could you have a read through
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingUbiquity and see if you make the bug

@ Phil, while I'm sure there are other ways of reproducing this look at
comment #15. I can reliably reproduce this in a *buntu dual boot time
and time again. I'm suspicious of ubiquity-partman but that's just a
guess.

@ Erick, please do so using the instructions from #24. The
'conversation' between a bug being reported by lots of people and the
questions so far asked are lamentable. There is a bug, the devs need
more information. Our head of QA suggested the link in #24; which from I
can read should have been
I'll see what I can do, but this bugs UbiquityPartman log shows:

It should be noted that we are whining about /dev/sda3:
parted_server: OUT: Error informing the kernel about modifications to
partition /dev/sda3 -- Device or resource busy. This means Linux won't
know about any changes you made to /dev/sda3 until you reboot -- so you
shouldn't mount it or use
It should be noted that sda3 is the only partition we seem to
successfully mount during probing, and that its neibour sda4 which
shares a boundary with it is also potentially active as swap:

I was seeing this issue on a macbook air. I just tried the daily image
from today and it installed just fine without this error.

Aren't the tests for iso.qa.ubuntu.com kept on file somehow so that can
be looked up?
