I ran two installations of today's precise image in a row under a current precise host with precise kernel, then two more under precise host running a lucid kernel, and all four succeeded. In the VM (under the live system) I also tried to copy /bin/ to /target 10.000 times in all four cases which also did not trigger the bug. But I guess I've just been lucky here, or something else in my environment is different. In all cases I was using virtio for the VM hard disk.
Does this also happen when not using virtio? If not, this might provide a workaround for the time being. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/894768 Title: Installation randomly fails with: File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/install_misc.py", line 621, in copy_file targetfh.write(buf) IOError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/894768/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
