Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubiquity
I installed fresh 10.10 from USB stick, during installation I choose manual disk partitioning and made 2 partitions: / and swap During installation, my HDD was referred as /dev/sdb (obviously, USB drive was /dev/sda). After installation, system failed to mount swap because swap was set as /dev/sdb2 in /etc/fstab :~$ cat /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0 # / was on /dev/sdb1 during installation UUID=2f5c538b-02f8-4237-9e6f-4a016fee92af / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/sdb2 none swap sw 0 0 Also HDD became /dev/sda (I removed flash drive). "/" was mounted OK, because it was referred by its UUID. Expected behavior: Swap is set in /etc/fstab by its UUID during installation and is correctly mount during system boot, as this now works for "/" (see my fstab file) This issue is USB stick installation related, if you install from CD then HDD drive will always(during install and during normal boot) be /dev/sda ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: ubiquity (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-22.35-generic 2.6.35.4 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-22-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: wl Architecture: i386 Date: Sun Oct 31 12:46:10 2010 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release i386 (20101007) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: ubiquity ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 maverick -- swap is incorrectly referred in /etc/fstab if install from USB sitck https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/669050 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
