Further to this, I hacked the install initrd to include a sleep (I am not recommending this a solution! :-) ) in cdrom-detect.postinst to test my theory on the usb drive not settling and the behaviour is as I would expect (usb drive detected correctly mounted and installation continues).
Small diff of my /var/lib/dpkg/info/cdrom-detect.postinst attached. ** Patch added: "cdrom-detect.postinst.diff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/48322801/cdrom-detect.postinst.diff -- D-I prompts for CD-ROM drivers for USB drive when drivers present, drive not mounted yet (preseed issue) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/424437 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
