Indeed, as you can see from one of the dupes, this can affect bare metal, other virtual machines, any flavor, etc. Thanks Martin!
** Summary changed: - Installer hangs after clicking "Restart Now" when running under qemu + Installer hangs after clicking "Restart Now" ** Description changed: - I'm running Vivid for the host, installing a Vivid qemu guest from the - latest daily desktop ISO (sha1sum - e8e4f19d4017bec2785aab62894355afb67bfce1). 64bit host and guest. + STEPS TO REPRODUCE + 1. Boot Vivid + 2. Select "Install" (not "Try before installing") + 3. Go through the installation process + 4. Upon successful installation, select "Reboot Now" - The install seemingly completes correctly, but at the end when you get - to the "Installation Complete" dialog, clicking "Restart Now" causes the - installer to hang rather than reboot (see attached screenshot). + EXPECTED RESULTS + * system reboots - You can work around this by booting the ISO with init=/sbin/upstart. So - it's at least related to systemd, although how exactly I don't know. + ACTUAL RESULTS + * system does not reboot or shutdown + * cannot get to tty - This bug seemingly doesn't occur when installing on physical hardware, - only when installing on a qemu VM. I'm not sure whether this happens - with other VM solutions like VirtualBox, VMware, etc., as I haven't - tested those. + AFFECTS + * images: 20160417+, all flavors + * ubiquity 2.21.22 + * VirtualBox, QEMU, bare metal + + NOTES + * this was mentioned earlier in the cycle but on older bugs, so this may be a regression of some kind + * cyphermox claims this does NOT happen in the live session + + WORKAROUND + * hard reboot + * boot with init=/sbin/upstart -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1445587 Title: Installer hangs after clicking "Restart Now" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1445587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
