Public bug reported: cdromupgrade can't be run from the alternate Gutsy install CD as described ate the bottom of this page:
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading The CD gets auto-mounted as "Ubuntu 7.10 i386" and not as 'cdrom'. Trying to run the cdromupgrade script causes the following error: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo sh /media/Ubuntu\ 7.10\ i386/cdromupgrade [: 23: 7.10: unexpected operator tar: /media/Ubuntu: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now tar: Child returned status 2 tar: 7.10: Not found in archive tar: i386/dists/stable/main/dist-upgrader/binary-all//gutsy.tar.gz: Not found in archive tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors Could not find the upgrade application in the archive, exiting Workaround is to remount the cdrom manually on /media/cdrom as detailed in this thread (7th post): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=580338 The naming of the cd also seems to stop it being detected in software- sources, although that might be caused by something else. Did anyone actually test the cdromupgrade script before release? :p ** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- cdromupgrade doesn't work with current Gutsy alternative CD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155833 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
