Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
After manual partitioning installer stopped/froze displaying "5% -
creating a filesystem" message.
I've found a suspicious program (/sbin/mount.ntfs) using process list
that looked like the reason of the trouble. After killing it the
installation process continued correctly and then the final message was
shown. After that the /target, /target/data and /target/mnt/winxp
partitions were left mounted, while other /target/mnt/* partitions were
unmounted correctly. Looks like some problem with fuse and/or ntfs-3g to
me.
I admit, I have a complicated disk layout, with separate home partition
(mounted as /data and symlinked), many Linux partitions and several of
them are even unformatted. Since I was able to complete the install, the
problem I described is not a big deal for me. I wonder, however, if
other people may find themselves in the same situation.
All the meaty details below:
