Public bug reported: Attempting to install Ubuntu 14.10 on a software RAID across 2 1TB disks. I've built a RAID using the instructions here (http://blog.tshirtman.fr/2014/5/4/install-ubuntu-desktop-on-software- raid)
I've given the disks a 1Gb partition to install grub or boot onto, but that fails, and then the installer crashes ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 14.10 Release: 14.10 ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ Running off the 14.10 installer CD ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.10 Package: ubiquity 2.20.0 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-23.31-generic 3.16.4 Uname: Linux 3.16.0-23-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.7-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 CasperVersion: 1.345 Date: Sun Jan 25 10:47:24 2015 InstallCmdLine: file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash -- maybe-ubiquity LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Release amd64 (20141022.1) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_GB.UTF-8 PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: grub-installer UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: grub-installer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug ubiquity-2.20.0 ubuntu utopic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1414423 Title: Installer fails to install grub, then crashes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1414423/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
