I can confirm that the version of ubuntu-vm-builder in hardy-updates, 0.4-0ubuntu0.1, doesn't handle the situation where /tmp is mounted nodev,nosuid, and that the version in hardy-proposed, 0.4-0ubuntu0.4, with the new "--in-place" option is able to build a vm with /tmp so mounted.
(As an aside, TMPDIR as set in the host is passed along to the guest during the build, so if the guest's filesystem doesn't have the path that TMPDIR is set to in the host (e.g. "/data" or "$HOME/tmp/") then bits of the installation fail miserably. I know ubuntu-vm-builder has been replaced with a python version, but it might be worth checking if this issue still lurks there.) ** Tags added: verification-done ** Tags removed: verification-needed -- [SRU] Fails to generate valid image if /tmp is mounted nosuid,nodev & -t is not specified https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
