Public bug reported: Quite simply, I received free Kubuntu & Ubuntu 64-bit versions for free in the mail on CD (I was thrilled), however, installation is a complete nightmare and fails early into the process once the copying of files is complete.
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 130, in ? install(sys.argv[1]) File "/usr/bin/ubiquity", line 55, in install ret = wizard.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 311, in run self.process_step() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 734, in process_step self.mountpoints_to_summary() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 1047, in mountpoints_to_summary self.progress_loop() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/kde-ui.py", line 524, in progress_loop raise RuntimeError, ("Install failed with exit code %s; see " RuntimeError: Install failed with exit code 1; see /var/log/installer/syslog and /var/log/syslog That is the output and the reason for crashing apparently It is an AMD64 3500+ 2.2GHZ S939 Abit AN8-Ultra nForce4 Motherboard 3D Fuzion (By BFG) 7300LE PCI-Express VideoCard 512mb DDR400 Crucial RAM Please let me know how this turns out ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Kubuntu 6.06 Installation Crashes on AMD64 https://launchpad.net/bugs/58438 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
