You have been subscribed to a public bug: I tried to install Ubuntu 20.04.2 from the ISO image "ubuntu-20.04.2 -live-server-s390x.iso" available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases/20.04.2/release/ on an LPAR.
For this I used the "Load from ISO image" panel on the HMC with the "/ubuntu.ins" file. I then used the manual network config dialog to configure a qeth network device and loaded the ISO image from the URL: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases/20.04.2/release/ubuntu-20.04.2-live-server-s390x.iso This all worked nicely (Thanks for bringing back the manual network configuration!) and gave me a subiquity installer available via "ssh installer@<ip>" as well as on the "Integrated ASCII Console". In the first installer step I chose "English" as the language, then the next step is the keyboard layout but there the installer immediately shows a "Sorry the installer encountered an internal error" dialog (both via SSH and the integrated ASCII console). The "Continue" button doesn't get me further and "Sent to Canonical" then completely crashes the installer (which at least restarts). I've used the same installation flow successfully with the Ubuntu 20.10 ISO image. So I don't think I'm doing something wrong. I also collected a the crash log which I've attached. I think the relevant part here might be the following: 2021-03-16 11:19:31,460 INFO subiquity:119 Arguments passed: ['/snap/subiquity/2278/usr/bin/subiquity'] 2021-03-16 11:19:31,460 DEBUG subiquitycore.screen:133 KDGKBTYPE failed OSError(25, 'Inappropriate ioctl for device') 2021-03-16 11:19:31,461 DEBUG asyncio:54 Using selector: EpollSelector 2021-03-16 11:19:31,464 DEBUG subiquity.signals:50 connect_signal: l10n:language-selected -> KeyboardController.language_selected 2021-03-16 11:19:31,465 DEBUG subiquitycore.core:92 known signals: ['l10n:language-selected'] 2021-03-16 11:19:31,465 DEBUG subiquitycore.core:120 starting controllers 2021-03-16 11:19:31,465 DEBUG subiquitycore.core:123 controllers started 2021-03-16 11:19:31,465 DEBUG subiquitycore.screen:133 KDGKBTYPE failed OSError(25, 'Inappropriate ioctl for device') 2021-03-16 11:19:31,466 DEBUG subiquity/Progress/_wait_status:107 start: 2021-03-16 11:19:31,467 INFO subiquity/Welcome:107 start: starting UI 2021-03-16 11:19:31,468 DEBUG subiquitycore.screen:133 KDGKBTYPE failed OSError(25, 'Inappropriate ioctl for device') 2021-03-16 11:19:31,468 DEBUG subiquitycore.screen:133 KDGKBTYPE failed OSError(25, 'Inappropriate ioctl for device') 2021-03-16 11:19:31,468 DEBUG subiquitycore.screen:133 KDGKBTYPE failed OSError(25, 'Inappropriate ioctl for device') 2021-03-16 11:19:31,468 DEBUG subiquitycore.screen:133 KDGKBTYPE failed OSError(25, 'Inappropriate ioctl for device') 2021-03-16 11:19:31,468 DEBUG subiquitycore.screen:133 KDGKBTYPE failed OSError(25, 'Inappropriate ioctl for device') So I'm guessing the code is probing for a keyboard but we don't have any or even usb so something fails. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Skipper Bug Screeners (skipper-screen-team) Status: New ** Tags: architecture-s39064 bugnameltc-192018 severity-high targetmilestone-inin20042 -- On s390x interactive subiquity from the 20.04.2 ISO crashes on keyboard selection screen breaking install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1919420 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
