[Bug 1038522] Re: [kde] manual partitioning in installer crashes when handling many partitions
This bug is still present in the Kubuntu 13.10 installer The patch/workaround provided in comment #23 helped me finish the installation. I never had any problems while using multiple partitions during the installation. The thing that got changed is that I (partially) use my harddisks in a LVM setup. The LVM partitions are shown twice, where the child item is only usable (and shows the filesystem type). Is this the expected behavior?

I'm getting this bug with Kubuntu 13.04 32bit booted from a USB pen drive on a Samsung N110 netbook. I am re-using pre-existing partitions, a small /boot partition and the rest uses LVM LV's. I am formatting the root and using /home as is with data in place. On changing the 3rd partition the installer drops out with no errors being displayed on the GUI.

[Bug 1038522] Re: [kde] manual partitioning in installer crashes when handling many partitions
I am having the installer crash on 13.04 beta 1 but I have had this problem for the past SIX versions of Kubuntu. That is, this has been a problem for a LONG time.I usually can get around it by minimizing the number of partitions I specify manually to /boot, /home, and root(/). But it usually takes about 6 tries before I can get it to work. But in about TEN tries on Kubuntu 13.04 beta1, I can't get past the manual partition specification. I've tried both from the install Kubuntu initial screen, and from the install kubuntu icon after booting the live CD system. So I have to give up. I always: 1) Do a total fresh install. 2) Manually create my own partitions using gparted This was on a Toshiba laptop with only one disk drive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to ubiquity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1038522 Title: [kde] manual partitioning in installer crashes when handling many partitions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1038522/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Thanks to Rick Graves for making me see the light!!! (slaps forehead in a why didn't I think of that gesture!!) I've spent about 5 hours on this problem today, which is added to the 'at least' 5 hours I have probably spent on every release of the last SIX releases fighting this same *(*^% problem. But by selecting just the '/' partition (already had a swap present and didn't even select it), I am now loading 13.04 beta 1. Why in hades hasn't this problem been fixed about 5 releases ago And Graves solution is not something that someone relatively new to Kubuntu would want to do... so it kinda make linux look bad to newbies. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to ubiquity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1038522 Title: [kde] manual partitioning in installer crashes when handling many partitions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1038522/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1038522] Re: [kde] manual partitioning in installer crashes when handling many partitions
This is happening to my clean install (well, my try) of Ubuntu 12.10, 64-bit on a machine that already has 12.04. I want to overwrite the root partition, keeping the /home as is. It happened when I installed 12.04 too, but I somehow managed to make it install -- can't remember, but I thing a few reboots and the partitions finally showed up. Not happening now. The install steps: - start computer with USB key on, boots fine into Ubuntu (I tried both the Try and Install options); - if I choose to install, it first goes to the language selection (English) - then to preparing to install Ubuntu, where it approves both my free space and Internet connectivity; - next, come the surprise: instead of going to a screen where I can choose whether I want to wipe the disk, install along other OS, or do manual... I go straight into the manual install screen; - and there, as other people reported, there is nothing on the top area where partitions should be. The HD is seen, listed as /dev/sda. If I choose th Try Ubuntu option, I also see the partitions, can mount them and see their contents. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to ubiquity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1038522 Title: [kde] manual partitioning in installer crashes when handling many partitions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1038522/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
