[Bug 1025879] [NEW] Ubuntu installation failed on reiserfs from USB
Public bug reported: Tried to install Ubuntu from USB stick created with Unetbootin on Mac OS-X. Target platform is Intel quad-core i7 @3.6GHz, with 32GB ram. System contains two identical 1TB SATA disks, first one (sda) with a 20GB reiserfs partition chosen as /, rest is unused. Other dise (sdb) also has a 20GB partition, which was set as "do not use". Installing onto a sda with a single 20GB partition (reiserfs), hoping in would be possible to install Grub manually at some point (like I usually do). I was warned that I should create a small partition for the bootloader, but ignored the message. Installer crashed without giving detailed information about what was wrong. Probably the ubiquity package. Edit: details about sda/sdb type and layout.
