Public bug reported:
I have tried to install Jaunty Alpha 4 from Desktop and Alternate CDs on
a ThinkPad W500 containing a primary Windows Vista NTFS partition
(/dev/sda1) and an extended partition (/dev/sda2) with swap (/dev/sda5),
root (/dev/sda6) and home (/dev/sda7). After finishing partitioning, the
installer on the Desktop CD simply restarts with keyboard configuration.
No error message. Trying the Alternate CD, applying the disk
partitioning fails on /dev/sda5. The installation program suggests a
reboot for the kernel to use the updated partition table -> same problem
after that. The problem even persists when configuring the partitioning
program not to use the swap partition.
On a console, I have found out that udev has re-created an entry for
/dev/sda1, but not for the partitions in my extended partition (i.e.
/dev/sda5, etc.. These entries have been deleted.).
