Public bug reported:
When installing oneiric alpha 3 with the hd-media image, the iso-scan
udeb is searching for an iso on a disk but if a folder name contains
spaces, (ie: Documents and Settings) an error occurs and the search
stops.
my setup:
booting from usb disk /dev/sdb1 on system with one local disk and one usb disk
/dev/sda1 (Win 7)
/dev/sda2 (/boot)
/dev/sda3 (lvm)
/dev/sda4 (lvm)
/dev/sdb1 (install image with preseed)
I am not sure of the correct way to fix this but I find that changing line
number 162 of the var/lib/dpkg/info/iso-scan.postinst file
from
isolist=$(find $dir $opt -name "*.iso" -o -name "*.ISO" 2>/dev/null)
to
isolist=$(find "$dir" $opt -name "*.iso" -o -name "*.ISO" 2>/dev/null)
fixes the problem on my system
The installer boot image I am using is from
archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/
and as of today, the udeb.list file says that the package version of iso-scan
is 1.35ubuntu1
Note that this is my first bug report so I am not sure how to create a proper
patch attachment
Thanks, Sylvain
