During Wily final iso testing last night I experienced my first ever such freeze while reformatting a primary partition as shown in the attached side-by-side screenshots. I included the gnome-clock at the top so you can see it's an actual freeze, the first shot was probably 10 to 15 minutes into the process and the next is more than 30 minutes later.
Just to give an idea of how random this freeze may be, I've performed that identical test on the same partition dozens of times in the past and this is the first time it's frozen with a primary partition like that. It's much more likely to occur on a logical partition in the double digits. ** Attachment added: "Freeze_primary.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-ext3/+bug/1361951/+attachment/4502483/+files/Freeze_primary.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1361951 Title: Ubiquity freezes while reformatting occupied partition To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-ext3/+bug/1361951/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
