Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubiquity
the server has these partitions: / /boot /home /var this had ubuntu 10.04 installed, but we had need reinstall, the server has 6tb of disk space with raid 5(hardware) and lvm. For reinstall we used ubuntu server 10.04 64bit, the steps that we made: *select manual partition *format / *format /boot *select for mount vat in /var without format *select for mount home in /home without format when we click in continue, show message said that some files in /var overwrite because some app need this, click ok, and after continue with fomatted but seconds after was completely blue screen wait for several minutes and nothing, only blue screen without information or process, and we deside reboot. After install without mount /home and /var and install good, but in the var partition were removed several files!! (there was only file spool, tmp, www, .. alphabetical delete?) we lost DBs and files backups ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- server installing, delete files in /var if select /var partition as /var mount point without format https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/595337 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
