Seems the root ccause is lack of /dev/sda or /dev/sdb. I am trying to install ubuntu server on machine with hardware raid, no /dev/sda or dev/sdb. Instlaler complaisn aand then enters the loop.

When attempting to boot 18.04 on a virtualbox vm, this problem occurs if I have "solid state drive" selected in the options for the virtual hard disk.

[Bug 1779948] Re: Snapd gets stuck when starting Ubuntu.
The problem here is lack of entropy in the kernel. A CVE was reported in the kernel related to low entropy, and the modification prevented the data from going out. Unfortunately that means any programs at early boot that attempted to obtain a few bytes of random data would get stuck, potentially for several minutes. That's of course unreasonable, so the patch in the kernel has since been reverted. In the snapd end we've also modified the particular logic that used the random data to use a different strategy, since the entropy was not important for the particular use we had for the data at play. So this should be fixed on both ends by now: the kernel was reverted, and snapd won't get blocked if that happens elsewhere. So an update should guarantee that you won't observe this anymore. ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779948 Title: Snapd gets stuck when starting Ubuntu.

I believe this may be a different issue to bug 1779961. That bug is (quote) "Boot stops at "Starting Initial cloud-init job (metadata service crawler)..." However in my case boot pauses and alternately displays "Failed to start snappy daemon, see systemctl status snapd.service for details" and "Starting wait until snapd is fully seeded". This repeats for about 15 minutes, and then the system continues booting normally, and once booted everything appears to work as normal. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779948 Title: Snapd gets stuck when starting Ubuntu.
