I think we've established the most common cases for this are fixed; so I'll close this as Fix Released -- ubiquity will properly handle blank drives.
Fixes landed in: - partman-auto: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-auto/125ubuntu2 - ubiquity: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/2.21.22 One remaining issue will be to properly deal with "user errors", that is, running manual partitioning but not creating an EFI partition while booted in EFI mode. Phillip, can you open up bugs for the issues you noticed so we can track them appropriately? ** Changed in: partman-auto (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Released ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1418706 Title: Vivid: UEFI: blank drive incorrectly detected as existing BIOS-mode install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-auto/+bug/1418706/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
