Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Hardware used: 450Mhz Celeron with 192mb RAM and 6,4 GB Seagate ATA hard drive
(ST36531A, Firmware version 3.04)
Installation CD is ok, checked for defects
Steps to reproduce: run the Xubuntu live-CD installer, complete all
steps. After the last step (7th), notice the installer hanging and
locking the system up completely at 15% : "Detecting file systems". This
happens regardless of the partition option chosen (Manual or guided).
Both partitioning options work OK with the alternate install CD, and the
live-CD installation worked OK, too, with Feisty herd 5 (guided install)
on the same machine.
Logs: difficult to acquire, as the installer won't give any crash
report. And running ubiquity from the terminal with or without "--
debug"-switch is VERY slow (it takes about 30 minutes to get even to the
partitioning step of the installer, where the installer seems to hang).
Other remarks and a possible cause: Live session desktop lacks both
panels, which has usually been caused by insufficient amount of memory -
192 mb should officially be enough, but maybe it isn't, for some reason.
** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
