Public bug reported:
Hi, I've used ubiquity as an installer for the Raspberry Pi 2/3. One of
the quirks of the Pi is its need for a FAT formatted boot partition.
The Pi packages (flash-kernel etc) expect this to be mounted at
/boot/firmware. However if I give ubiquity this mount point then it
soon crashes.
I believe the problem is to do with the mount options that are
automatically given to fat partitions. I've solved this by applying a
patch to the partman-basicfilesystems package. Please see attached.
I'm not sure whether this is the correct fix, or a more generic fix
should be applied to ubiquity and FAT partitions.
