Trying a 14.04 netboot today still fails the same way.
I had to do this to allow the installation to continue:
- switch to the 2nd console (alt+f2)
- press enter to get a command prompt
- type these commands:
chroot /target
rm /initrd.img*
dpkg --configure -a # it runs the linux-image-extra-3.13.0-24-generic
configuration
exit # the chroot
exit # the shell
- switch back to the 1st console (alt+f1)
- continue the installation by re-running the last step (software installation)
This allows the installation to continue, but this problem definitely
forbids fully automated/unattended installation… :-(
IMHO, it seems two kernels are trying to make the same link to
/initrd.img and the second one fails to do it because it already exists,
making its configuration (and the installation) to stop.
The second kernel (3.13.0-66) is a security update coming from trusty-
updates (and trusty-security).
