> Martin, we have always mounted the swap partition from the live cd to make sure we have enough memory to operate.
That's not a good justification as installation has to work as well if there are no swap partitions on the hard disk. > Why would we want to disable that now The change above didn't disable that -- we just enable swap in the initrd now, via a direct "swapon" instead of adding them to fstab. (See the above notes for the reason). > and *only* for GPT partitioned disks? This isn't related to GPT vs. MBR at all, both the bug and the fix apply to both. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1552539 Title: Ubiquity Erase Disk and Install Fails to create Swap Space To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1552539/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
