Evan, your partman patch seems wrong to me. The "cut" part leaves only the device name through, so it's too late to grep for fs type afterwards. You might want to do something like this (not tested): CDDEV=$(grep " /cdrom \(iso9660\|udf\) " /proc/mounts | cut -d ' ' -f 1 | grep -v "^/dev/loop") -

I think this will cause problems during pkgsel (or for certain kinds of ubiquity installs), because apt-cdrom won't be able to make use of packages on the CD. Instead, in the USB install case I think we need to remove /cdrom from /etc/fstab at the end of the installation, in a finish-install scrip

No code in usb-creator touches /etc/fstab. It simply writes the contents of the installation medium to a disk. Marking as invalid for that task. ** Changed in: usb-creator Status: New => Invalid -- Installer should not list removable media in /etc/fstab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1

Just so I understand, it sounds to me like when I install Ubuntu from a USB cdrom drive it will add an entry to /etc/fstab for that removable drive. However, once you remove that drive from the system (as you may have only wanted to use it for the install) the drive is now invalid. Can you explain

We can't do anything much about this until apt-cdrom can discover the CD drive dynamically. Until that, taking removable media out of /etc/fstab would break other things. (I'm not excluding the possibility of minor hacks just for USB installs, and Evan is aware of this, but we can't fix it in a sw
