Despite the fatal module error, the installer seems to mount the ISO properly. The contents of the /cdrom directory in the installation process is the same as the ISO file.
What does not match, is the directory structure: /var/log/syslog tells us that the installer complains about missing [main|restricted|universe|multiverse]/debian- installer/binary-i386/Packages[.gz] files in /cdrom/dists/karmic/Release. But /cdrom/dists/karmic/Release is not a directory: $ ls -l /cdrom/dists/karmic -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2009-10-29 17:25 Release -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2009-10-29 17:25 Release.gpg drwx------ 4 root root 2009-11-23 13:13 main drwx------ 4 root root 2009-11-23 13:13 multiverse drwx------ 4 root root 2009-11-23 13:13 restricted drwx------ 4 root root 2009-11-23 13:13 universe The problem seems to be a mismatch between the directory structure in the ISO, with the files requested by the installer (eg. main/debian- installer/binary-i386/Packages.gz): /cdrom/dists/karmic/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz /cdrom/dists/karmic/main/binary-i386/Release /cdrom/dists/karmic/main/source/ /cdrom/dists/karmic/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.gz /cdrom/dists/karmic/multiverse/binary-i386/Release /cdrom/dists/karmic/multiverse/source/ /cdrom/dists/karmic/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz /cdrom/dists/karmic/restricted/binary-i386/Release /cdrom/dists/karmic/restricted/source/ /cdrom/dists/karmic/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz /cdrom/dists/karmic/universe/binary-i386/Release /cdrom/dists/karmic/universe/source/ Note, that there is no 'debian-installer' subdirectory in the ISO. -- hd-media installer fails to install from ISO media https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/480368 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
