This also affects Lucid and the PowerPC port on an Apple iMac G3 (PowerPC 750, 500MHz, PowerMac2,2, NewWorld).
In my case the original CD-RW had 2 packages with bad checksums causing installation problems so I returned to the menu, ejected the CD, and inserted a fresh CD-RW containg the same image. When re-running the Install Software Selection tasksel the dialog reads: Please insert the disc labeled 'Ubuntu 10.04 _Lucid Lynx_ - Alpha powerpc (20100419)' in the driver /cdrom/ and press enter. Media change <Continue> Despite inserting the CD, when pressing Enter the same dialog returns and there is no option to go back to the selection menu. On tty2 (Alt+F2) I mounted the CD manually from the busybox shell: mount /deb/hdb /cdrom/ and compared "/cdrom/README.diskdefines" DISKNAME: #define DISKNAME Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Alpha powerpc with "/var/log/media-info": Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Alpha powerpc (20100419) I then realised the chroot for /target/ might not have the cdrom mounted so I did: chroot /target mount /deb/hdb /cdrom exit And then switched back to tty1 (Alt+F1) and when pressing "<continue>" the installation continued. I suspect I could have avoided the mount command inside the chroot by doing: mount /dev/hdb /target/cdrom in the busybox shell. -- Alternate install fails requesting same disc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360460 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
