Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubiquity
While installing Herd 5 (Kubuntu X86_64), after partitioning, at about the 70% mark while installing files, my screen went from the X desktop, to a text console (probably pty0, it had the kernel messages on it, with 'Kernel active' at the bottom) I waited a minute, and when it didn't restore itself, I hit alt-f7 to get back to X. WHat I got was a black screen with a dialog box saying that the screen was locked, and I am prompted to enter the password for the 'ubuntu' user. Hitting enter with the password field blank, or any simple password I guessed (password, user, ubuntu, root, toor) simply said 'unlock failed'. Looks like its time to reboot and restart the install... Hope it goes different. ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Screen blanks, locks during install of herd 5 https://launchpad.net/bugs/89878 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
