Dave has a way to reproduce this in a loop on his system. I logged in through ssh and attached strace -fvvs1024 to all the running processes with "ubiquity" or "partman" in the name. Attaching the raw data, I'll stare at it in a bit.
I think the next step is to find out which precise commands ubiquity and/or partman are running in order to set up the swap partition, and then try to reproduce these on the command line to study what's up with those. I don't see any commands logged in the partman log, hence I was trying strace. Sorry, I know absolutely nothing about partman or the partitioning/fs creation part of installer at large, so I'm just poking in the dark so far. ** Attachment added: "straces of ubiquity and partman processes" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1552539/+attachment/4640634/+files/traces.tar.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1552539 Title: Ubiquity Erase Disk and Install Fails to create Swap Space To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/1552539/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
