Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubiquity
I am running ubiquity under VirtualBox 1.5.4 to test the Hardy installer under low memory situations. I am using 192MB ram and a 128MB ccache virtual swap partition. Ubiquity defaults to attempt to install to /dev/ccache. This is pointless as ccache will disappear on reboot. I would expect Ubiquity to default to install on the physical harddisk. It is also odd the ubiquity allows us to attempt to perform a guided install on /dev/fd0. I don't think ubiquity should even offer to install to /dev/fd* or /dev/ccache.
