Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubiquity
I installing my system from 1 Gb USB flash drive (ubuntu-8.04-desktop.iso distribution). All fine but couldn't mount USB flash drive because in /etc/fstab it mentioned as CD-ROM drive. Steps for reproduce: 1. Insert USB Flash drive at least 1Gb. For me it is /dev/sdb 2. Make FAT32 partition on it and, bootable flag (in gparted for example). 3. Get small shell script: http://www.startx.ro/sugar/isotostick.sh and run: sudo ./isotostick.sh ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso /dev/sdb1 4. Boot from this USB Flash Drive, run "Install". Installation go more fast then from CD. All works fine, but when I reboot and boot my just installed OS, I get error message when connect my USB Flash Drive: couldn't mount, wrong fs or superblock. This is because ubiquity make record in /etc/fstab for /dev/sdb1 as for CD-ROM drive. Solution: do not create any record for /dev/sdb in fstab. ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- sdb1 (USB flash) as CDROM in fstab when install from USB flash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239074 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
