I have downloaded and checked an ubuntu-9.04-alternate-amd64.iso CD and see this bug too. Steps to reproduce: 1. Download ubuntu-9.04-alternate-amd64.iso
2. Create a bootable USB (or HDD) using unetbootin from this iso 3. Boot a comuter from this USB (or HDD) 4. Process the install to the step "load installer components from cd" (ignoring failed detection of CDROM) 5. Go to console (alt+f2) 6. Mount drive with installer files to the /cdrom: # mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /cdrom 7. Copy folder /cdrom/dists/jaunty to /cdrom/dists/stable (because if we copy ISO to the FAT system via unetbootin, symlink /cdrom/dists/stable converts to empty file) with commands: # rm /cdrom/dists/stable # cp /cdrom/dists/jaunty /cdrom/dists/stable -R 8. Go back to installer (alt+f1) 9. Start the step "load installer components from cd" again. 9.1. Solve the unetbootin bug (when copying files, file pool/main/l/linux/fs-secondary-modules-2.6.28-11-generic-di_2.6.28-11.42_amd64.udeb saves as pool/main/l/linux/fs-secondary-modules-2.6.28-11-generic-di_2.6.28-11.42_amd64.ude): - when we see the error "problem reading data from the CDROM" we goes to console (alt+f2) and type # cp /cdrom/pool/main/l/linux/fs-secondary-modules-2.6.28-11-generic-di_2.6.28-11.42_amd64.ude/cdrom/pool/main/l/linux/fs-secondary-modules-2.6.28-11-generic-di_2.6.28-11.42_amd64.udeb after that returns to the installer (alt+f1) and on "Retry" click "Yes". 10. Process next steps, partitioning, etc.... 11. On step "Install the base system" we will see the error: [!!] Install the base system Debootstrap Error Failed to determine codename for the release. And I don't know how I can solve this error.
