Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Note, I am using the daily ISO build (Jan. 9, 2010) of Ubuntu-Netbook-
Remix on my USB key (iso transferred using USB Startup Disk Creator).
While booted up from the USB key on my EeePC 1000, I tried to "Check
disc for defects". The screen goes blank for a moment, and then a
message comes up saying "Opening pipe: No such file or folder found".
At this point, nothing else appears to be happening.
However, if one then use Ctrl-Alt-F8, you get back to the graphical
screen which shows all sorts of activity and it finishes with no errors.
Note that in this graphical mode, there are an entire screen's worth of
messages showing tests of different parts of the filesystem, and no
Ubuntu logo.
I tested the same process using the RC iso of Karmic, and it worked
flawlessly. Also, it contained far fewer messages, and the logo
remained on the screen.
I see two bugs here. 1) The failed pipe opening command. 2) The fact
that the error message switched the screen to tty1, leaving users with
the impression that nothing is happening.
