[Bug 1929213] Re: Ubuntu server LVM creates clone partitions and crash installation (invalid wwn is used by udev & probert as well)
Only attempt that was successful was when I did not use lVM and set up everything on single drive. I got drives from retailer, sealed in hard plastic so I doubt anyone except factory had their hands on them. Second pair( HDDs ) I got sealed by vendor with his sticker on it. Those two have WWN set. It seems WWN = 0x50. is something that is common among those type of drives. Just checked my destkop and it has at least one drive like that as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1929213 Title: Ubuntu server LVM creates clone partitions and crash installation (invalid wwn is used by udev & probert as well) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subiquity/+bug/1929213/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1929213] Re: Ubuntu server fails to install if boot is not on sda1
Should have been: * while parted does show it as well. Out of curiosity, I gave a go to fedora server and it seems to work( with one minor detail when it comes to partitioning). Im going to alter title, as it is wrong. General flaw seems to be LVM mixing drives/CC partition table onto another: Ubuntu headles LVM creation fails. HW setup: 2xSSD(sda,sdb) 2xHDD(sdc,sdd). Test scenarion: 0 - /boot and /boot/efi on /sda 1(encr) vg0 on sda,sdb( /, /home, /etc, /var/log, /usr/local). vg1 on sdc,sdd( /srv ) 2(plain) vg0 on sda,sdb( /, /home, /etc, /var/log, /usr/local). vg1 on sdc,sdd( /srv ) 3(encr) vg0 on sda,sdb( /, /home, /etc, /var/log, /usr/local). 4(plain) vg0 on sda,sdb( /, /home, /etc, /var/log, /usr/local). 5(encr) vg0 on sda( /, /home, /etc, /var/log, /usr/local). 6(plain) vg0 on sda( /, /home, /etc, /var/log, /usr/local). 7(plain) sda( /, /home, /etc, /var/log, /usr/local). Only 7 worked. In all other cases installation failed( for some crash logs are in tar ). With one key observation - even when only single drive was selected, somehow second(sdb) had clones of partitions from sda. ** Summary changed: - Ubuntu server fails to install if boot is not on sda1 + Ubuntu server LVM creates clone partitions and crash installation -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1929213 Title: Ubuntu server LVM creates clone partitions and crash installation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subiquity/+bug/1929213/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1929213] Re: Ubuntu server fails to install if boot is not on sda1
Possibly original tittle might be wrong. Ive reset physical connections and BIOS, but could not reproduce ID switch. I might just have been tired and imagined it. Nevertheless, installation still fail. Through trial and error one thing is clear - plain HDD install( no LVM/Crypto) does work like a charm. What I found odd about his is fact that installer, seems to see partitions cloned after restart, while parted does not( txt and img in ;single_drive_encr_lvm;). I'm fairly sure other iterations did produce similar duplication, but I just brushed it off as trash after last install - my bad?

[Bug 1929213] Re: Ubuntu server fails to install if boot is not on sda1
Im thinkering with ubuntu server 20.10 from live USB. I tried single drive install and it worked. Once it went live I tried minimal setup on two SSDs( /boot, /boot/efi and encrypted LVM with rest on both). Not sure if its relevant but I can see in crash report: "adding partition 'partition-3' to disk "disk-sdb" (ptable: 'gpt') partnum: 1 offset_Sectrors: 2048 length_sectors 500113407 Preparing partition location on disk /dev/sda This fails with exist code: 4 For some reason Im not able to authorize apport.

[Bug 1929213] Re: Ubuntu server fails to install if boot is not on sda1
Upon further investigation - it might be connected to BIOS screwing up order. Part of installer see wrong order, but scripts most likely see it differently? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1929213 Title: Ubuntu server fails to install if boot is not on sda1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1929213/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
