What I seem to be finding is that if 3 primary partitions and one extended partition exist the installer stalls at "Preparing to install". The number of logical partitions within the extended partition seems to make no difference.
But the plot thickens a bit with two drives connected. If I have only one drive connected with two primary partitions and one extended partition (containing any number of logical partitions) the installer proceeds as expected, but if I connect another drive with even one additional existing primary partition the installer stalls. I need to do quite a bit more testing to see if that applies to three drives or not, eg; three drives with one primary partition on each, and at least one extended partition on one drive, but so far it doesn't seem to matter what file system is in use on any existing partition. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1080701 Title: After 'Preparing to install Ubuntu' screen, raring installation hangs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1080701/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
