[Bug 1762034] Re: Installer crashes at installing grub

2018-04-08 Thread hakuna_matata
IMHO, we found the reason. Because of new snap packages there were a lot
of existing loop devices when the installer created loop devices for
installing.

So the loop device for installing is /dev/loop10 which is a problem for
grub. The range of supported loop devices is from /dev/loop0 to
/dev/loop9.

Either it is necessary to change the selection /dev/loop[0-9] in

/etc/grub.d/10_linux from package grub-common (maybe also other files)
/etc/grub.d/10_lupin from package lupin-support
/usr/share/lupin-support/grub-mkimage from package lupin-support

or to change the mount sequence or the loop device names for snap
packages.

[Bug 1762034] Re: Installer crashes at installing grub

2018-05-04 Thread hakuna_matata
The bug report was created with a Wubiuefi release for Ubuntu 17.10. All
Wubiuefi releases for Ubuntu 18.04 contain a fix.
https://github.com/hakuna-m/wubiuefi/issues/91

i.e. the issue has been solved for Wubiuefi.

But IMHO the general issue still exists if you don't use Wubiuefi.

i.e. If someone creates a customized configuration for Ubiquity with
loop devices, the issue can still appear.

2016-03-14 Thread hakuna_matata
Meanwhile I could fix the bug. We need some changes in /bin
/autopartition-loop for parted >= 3.2. IMHO it is part of partman-auto-
loop. So I added  it to the bug report.

A copy of the fixed version of this file is here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hakuna-m/wubiuefi/068bb0ff656d40083a207d884159b9347d5d1ed5/data
/custom-installation/patch/autopartition-loop

I overwrote /bin/autopartition-loop with the patched file and it worked.

It is not possible to create a partition with parted 3.2 within the new
loop file because parted 3.2 creates a partition automatically. We need
this technique in previous versions of parted only. It fails with parted
3.2.

Note: The patched file also contains a second patch for systemd where
mount --move commands doesn't work.

@Noorez: Your fix still works for 14.04, 15.10 and 16.04. I have used it
since summer 2014 without any problems. The only problem is that every
update of an unfixed initramfs-tools package overwrites your fix.

[Bug 1633913] Re: failed to install grub-efi-amd64-signed

2016-10-26 Thread hakuna_matata
Lubuntu 16.10 desktop ISO does not work without internet connection. The
ISO does not contain /pool with additional packages.

If you compare
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/16.10/release/lubuntu-16.10
-desktop-amd64.list with http://releases.ubuntu.com/yakkety/ubuntu-16.10
-desktop-amd64.list, e.g. /pool/main/g/grub2-signed/grub-efi-
amd64-signed_1.74+2.02~beta2-36ubuntu11_amd64.deb is missing.

IMHO the advantage of a smaller ISO cannot compensate the drawback of a
necessary internet connection. So it is not really a feature, it is a
bug.

[Bug 1526537] Re: blk_update_request: I/O error

2016-04-11 Thread hakuna_matata
I can confirm that the error messages on Ubuntu 16.04 (daily) still
exist but it seems that it is not as bad as it looks.

I followed the steps which Marcin described in comment #16. Instead of

> Write some data on backing file via loop device
> dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/Test.file bs=1M count=512

I copied a known iso file to the created loop device
dd if=lubuntu-14.04.4-desktop-amd64.iso of=/mnt/Test.file bs=1M

I got also some error messages as described in previous comments but
md5sum said

md5sum lubuntu-14.04.4-desktop-amd64.iso && md5sum /mnt/Test.file

0b0fc8652afe0761edc3ed33e1b199f0  lubuntu-14.04.4-desktop-amd64.iso
0b0fc8652afe0761edc3ed33e1b199f0  /mnt/Test.file

Then I unmounted the test image and checked it for errors.

umount /mnt/
fsck -pvcf ./Test.img

...and I got:

fsck from util-linux 2.27.1
./Test.img: Updating bad block inode.

[Bug 1548120] Re: [xenial][initramfs-tools] support uppercase and lowercase uuids

2016-02-29 Thread hakuna_matata
The fix doesn't work for UUIDs of a Windows file system. blkid uses
always UUIDs in upper case for these file systems. So it fails because
the fix converts all UUIDs in lower case.

IMHO short UUIDs (length <= 16) should be always converted in upper case
because short UUIDs are only UUIDs of a Windows file systems.

It can affect also systems without Windows because the EFI partition has
a Windows file system (vfat).

In my case it fails booting into a loopback device(ext4) on a Windows
file system (ntfs).

Please fix your patch. Thanks.

2014-10-31 Thread hakuna_matata
I had the same issue, too.

Yesterday, I succeeded in copying manually old version of
/bin/parted_server (package http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-
updates/amd64/ubiquity) and /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libparted.so.0,
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libparted.so.0.0.1(package
http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libparted0debian1) during
installation.

Since that time it has worked.

IMHO the reason for the issue are several changes in libparted.
