Public bug reported: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with ubiquity version 20.04.15
When trying to preseed some values as documented in https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/amd64/apbs02.html #preseed-bootparms ubiquity seems to ignore these values. I specifically tried passwd/user-uid and the expectation was that this userID will be used for installing the dafult user. According to the documentation this should be possible, however it never installs the default user with the given userid. It seems to me that line 783 in ubi-usersetup will set the preseed dataset with an empty value if the installer does not run in OEM install mode, ignoring the preseed value. If I set this value in the Try + Install mode before starting the install procedure it will take the given value to install the default user. ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878104 Title: Installer does not pick up boot parameter preseeds To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1878104/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
