This does effect vanilla Ubuntu Trusty (14.04.2), Utopic, and Vivid. Also this time I set up a simple installation of 12.04.5 on bare metal, no dual boot, I just let the installer erase the whole 160GB GPT disc so I had only a 510MB /boot/efi partition + / & SWAP.
As I've played more and more with UEFI installations it seems clear that somehow the installer fails to recognize the existing /boot/efi partition and complains that no "EFI boot partition" exists. After clicking on go back the installer lands me in the advanced partitioner and you can clearly see in the two combined screenshots that /boot/efi does exist. ** Attachment added: "upgrade_fail_comp.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1423830/+attachment/4397117/+files/upgrade_fail_comp.png ** Tags added: trusty utopic ** Summary changed: - Trusty -> Vivid upgrade via live DVD froze (UEFI dual boot) + Upgrades via live DVD on UEFI systems falsely claim no EFI boot partition exists -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1423830 Title: Upgrades via live DVD on UEFI systems falsely claim no EFI boot partition exists To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1423830/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
