sudo vmbuilder kvm ubuntu hardy --mirror http://192.168.1.115:8080/ubuntu -- vmbuilder crashed with VMBuilderException in create() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273768 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
